Hi,

I have started using WB more often recently and I thought I would return to the community with something I feel that has been posted in the forums on a regular basis namely horizontal menus. I thought it might to include this in the online help section.

Below is an adaption of the code. My thanks to http://qrayg.com/learn/cssmenus

'Menu Code
<div id="page-container"><?php show_menu(1, 0, -1, false, '<li>[a][menu_title][/a]', '</li>', '<ul id="navmenu-h">', '</ul>', '', '', 0); ?></div>

'CSS

if (window.attachEvent) window.attachEvent("onload", navHover);
