var showByClick=1;Q: I want to use single css drop down menu bar for each page without applying HTML Code for each page separatly.I mean to use CSS Menu as per our .JS Menu.
A: Unfortunately it is not possible with css menu.
On each page you should call css file with styles:
<link href="menu.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
and add code for the menu on each page in the place where you want to have a menu, forexample:
<ul class="cssMenu cssMenum">
<li class=" cssMenui"><a class=" cssMenui" href="testlink.html">Home</a></li>
<li class=" cssMenui"><a class=" cssMenui" href="#"><span><img class="def" src="default.files/icon1.gif"/>
<img class="over" src="default.files/icon1o.gif">Product Info</span>
<![if gt IE 6]></a><![endif]><!--[if lte IE 6]><table><tr><td><![endif]-->
<ul class=" cssMenum">
<li class=" cssMenui"><a class=" cssMenui" href="testlink.html"><img class="def" src="default.files/icon2.gif"/>
<img class="over" src="default.files/icon2o.gif">Features</a></li>
</ul>
<!--[if lte IE 6]></td></tr></table></a><![endif]-->lt;/li>
<li class=" cssMenui"><a class=" cssMenui" href="testlink.htm">
<img class="def" src="default.files/icon1.gif"/>
<img class="over" src="default.files/icon1o.gif">Contact Us</a></li>
</ul>
You can also try to use frames.
Also you can use aserver-side script (php, asp, vb, etc.) to generate html pages fromtemplates on your server.
Q: I am totally confused by this now but I have 2 data files - one for a menu bar going horizontal and one going vertical both containing the same information. But even though the content is the same, the layout is different.
You will see that on the horizontal menu,
Fleet
Financce
CPC Cards
Cashire
These are listed correctly under each other but on the vertical one, the layout differs.
A: You should write your parameters more carefully.
See, now you have
menuItems = [
["About us","javascript:alert('Coming Soon')", , , ,"" ,0 , , , ],
["|||Organisation Chart","javascript:alert('Coming Soon')", , , ,"" ,1, , , ],
First you have the 1-st level of menu items then at once 4-th. It isnot right. You should write the number of your Individual Style in ""also.
See, how you should write your menuItems:
menuItems = [
["About us","javascript:alert('Coming Soon')", , , ,"" ,"0" , , , ],
["|Organisation Chart","javascript:alert('Coming Soon')", , , ,"","1", , , ],
