Creation pulldown menu does not work!

(1/2) > >>

Boudi:
Hi folks,

This entire day I searched the forum, tried multiple different 'solutions'. Even used the code.jellycan.com menu but I simply cannot get it done!

My problem is that I try to create a horizontal menu with vertical submenu's. The vertical menu's are actually pages. The main isn't.

What i tried to create was a pulldown structure with a mouse-over/mouse-out concept. When you scroll the mouse over it, the submenu appears and vice versa.

Like I said: I read the entire forum for a solution or help, I did LOTS of different coding but really nothing happened besides that I see the whole menu, or only the main menu or nothing. No pulldown on mouse-over...nothing!

One of the codes that I used was: <?php show_menu(1,0,1);?>

My first question is: Is there a good forum topic that I missed that handles and solutes my problem?
My second question is: is it possible that the rollovers from the main menu are images? I think I have to deal this within the css?

Most "Pull Down" menus rely on some code (JS, etc.) loading in the background. You just need to customise the show_menu output to deliver the structure like wanted by the code.

For the standart menufunction please head over to the help page. It is expained in detail (with variables) there.

cheers

Hello Klaus,

So you are saying that with the current WB mudules this is not possible?

I already had a WB site with an external menu build in it but I wanted the menu fully created within the WB cms so that users could maintain their own menu.

If so, then I do have to take a look at some javascript in combination with the menu module?

kweitzel:
The menu is capable of handling the output of the code, but you need the CSS or JS to go with it. It is neither a Limitation of WB or the modules, it's CSS or JS which does the design/funtion of these dropdown menus.

Check out the UDM4 Demo on http://code.jellycan.com/sm2test/ and the link to http://www.udm4.com/ for the code.

cheers

Klaus

If you want an example of a purely CSS based pull-down menu then look at the ALLCSS template. If you want an example of a JS based pull-down menu then look at the GENERIC template.
