The problem is the "'s around the img src.....it's throwing off your animated drop down menu.
How do I fix that?
A: It is not correct to write menuItems in such way.
You should write:
["|'Slow Death Hook' Contest<br><br><br>Enter Your Favorite Fish Photos to Win!<br> Gary Parsons <br><br><img src='images/thumbnail.jpg'>","http://www.domain.com/site/featured_article.cfm?owner=AB18D298-0AC7-254E-B7248E9DCD0F9549",,,,,"0"],
Try that.
Q: Could you also tell me where I should place the images I wish to use in the menu, eg arrows. When I select an image to use they are not appearing in the preview, or when I launch deluxe-menu.html?
A: Please, check images paths within data .js file.
For example, if you have data.js file here:
c:/website/data.js
and your images are stored here:
c:/website/images/
you should set image name so (for example):
var arrowImageMain = ["images/arrow1.gif", "images/arrow2.gif"];
If you use Tuner, you should save data .js file before you'll selectimages. When you save .js file it means that you set a root directoryfor the project, so Tuner can make all selected images with relativepaths.
Q: I should mean the font style that I failed to update after I have selected and assign font as shown in the pic above.
Step 1. using the sample data file
Step 2. select the font section of the Parameter Step3. click the font style and a window box will show up all the installed fonts
Step4. the default font is Tahoma, so I change it Times Roman
Step5. select Times Roman and click the Assign Font button There is no response with or without option Auto
The style font box did not update nor the preview
