Q: For example if you use the Growing Goodness menu located under Media Categories the first category is Agriculture w/ a sub category "Community Supported (CSA)" it is the sub category that is an active link. Is it possible to have only the active link "Community Supported (CSA) underlined and not Agriculture? And the same for all the other active links in this menu, all that have hyperlinks assigned to them.
A: You can write your links in the following way:
["Channels","", , , , , , , , ],
["|<a class='menu' href='http://growinggoodness.com/callingfromthecoast.htm'>Eco-Friendly</a>","", , , , "_self", , , , ],
["|<a class='menu' href='http://growinggoodness.com'>Farmers Market</a>","", , , , "_", , , , ],
["Media Categories","", , , , , , , , ],
["|Agriculture","", , , , , , , , ],
["||<a class='menu' href='http://growinggoodness.com/csa.htm'>Community Supported (CSA)</a>","", , , , "_self", , , , ],
["||Movie Trailers","", , , , , , , , ],
["|||<a class='menu' href='http://growinggoodness.com/farmboymovie.htm'>Farmboy</a>","", , , , "_self", , , , ],
["|||<a class='menu' href='http://growinggoodness.com/strongrootsfragilefarms.htm'>Strong Roots, Fragile Farms</a>","", , , , "_self", , ,, ],
["|||<a class='menu' href='http://growinggoodness.com/therealdirtonfarmerjohn.htm'>The Real Dirt On Farmer John</a>","", , , , "_self", , ,, ],
And create a style:
A.menu {
color: #FFF;
text-decoration: none;}
A.menu:hover {
color: #FFF;
text-decoration: underline;}
Q: When doing a multi-frame frameset (1 top frame, 2 bottom frames) like this:
<frameset ID="frames" ONLOAD="getBottom()" ROWS="50, *" BORDER="0" FRAMEBORDER="no" FRAMESPACING="0">
<frame NAME="frmTop" SRC="top.htm" MARGINHEIGHT=0 MARGINWIDTH=0 SCROLLING=NO NORESIZE FRAMEBORDER="0" />
<frameset ID="bottomFrames" cols="171,*">
<frame name="frmLeft" src="left.htm" MARGINHEIGHT=0 MARGINWIDTH=0 SCROLLING=NO NORESIZE FRAMEBORDER="0"/>
<frame name="frmMain" MARGINHEIGHT=0 MARGINWIDTH=0 SCROLLING=NO NORESIZEFRAMEBORDER="0" />
</frameset>
</frameset>
And using the dm_frameinit like this:
dm_initFrame("[object]", 0, 2, 0);
it works fine in IE -> the menus are displayed exactly under the text and in the bottom right frame.
However, in Firefox, the menu drop down is displayed to the right of the top menu text, and exactly the number of pixels as the width of the left frame.
Perhaps there needs to be some FireFox checking to fix this?
Can you help me with that?
A: The problem is in a structure of your frameset.
Mozilla browsers can't determine absolute coordinates for a frame, sosubmenus drop down with an offset.
You should create the following frameset structure:
--|------------
| menu
--|------------
|
| submenus
|
Now a top row has 2 columns and all browsers can determine awidth of the 1st column in the second row.
