Looks good, love the horizontal menu.
Did you hardcode the links or did you use 2 menu calls?

Hey John, thanks for the feedback  :-D ! Yes I hardcoded the horizontal nav, for now at least. Which meant having to create multiple templates, one for each tabbed page. I'm sure there's a simplier way, but I'm still a newb with WB, so I'm learning about a lot of new features almost everyday. The only problem I found with my template was with a spacer image I used. I noticed that when I view the page from home, that spacer image is not visible. Not sure where that's coming from, but so far it only seems to be occuring on my PC.

I simply called the image from the template directory.

Code: [Select]

<img src="<?php echo TEMPLATE_DIR; ?>/banner.gif" width="262" height="36" />
It's strange the image doesn't even show up in my source code when I view the page in my browser. It could just be a freak thing for now. Anyways, thanks again and I'm having a blast with WB.

Derek  :-D

clean and straightforward. on longer pages the search function will not be obvious though.

Thanks for the remarks, I really had a lot of fun learning to develop with WB. It has a lot of potential for me. I have a couple projects I'm currently working on with WB. As far as the seach function, you are right, I was thinking of trying to create a module for "Send this page to a friend".. I could just throw an anchor link at the top of each page linking to the footer for search abilities.

Thanks again,
Derek :-)

Your link throws me straight into your web-directories.   You really don't want this, I think!

Your right, I don't. But I'm moving to a new host shortly and the current site is inactive for awhile. Thanks though!!
