Smooth Navigational Menu

[jojom]

1) Script Title: Smooth Navigational Menu (v1.5)

2) Script URL (on DD): http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex1/ddsmoothmenu.htm

3) Describe problem: I tried the Menu code and it works fine but I wanted to place the menu content in an external file and I followed the intructions given but the sub menus are not functioning and hence unable to navigate.

The script placed in the head section is;

<script type="text/javascript">

ddsmoothmenu.init({
mainmenuid: "smoothmenu-ajax",
orientation: 'h',
classname: 'ddsmoothmenu',
customtheme: ["#1c5a80", "#18374a"], //override default menu CSS background values? Uncomment: ["normal_background", "hover_background"]
contentsource: ["smoothcontainer", "smoothmenu.html"] //"markup" or ["container_id", "path_to_menu_file"]
})

</script>

The code placed in the body section is :


<div id="smoothcontainer">
<noscript>
<a href="link to site map for search engines and user with JS disabled">Site map</a>
</noscript>
</div>


The code in the external file named smoothmenu.html is :


<div id="smoothmenu-ajax" class="ddsmoothmenu">
<ul>
<li><a href="http://www.mysite.com">Item 1</a></li>
<li><a href="#">Folder 0</a>
<ul>
<li><a href="#">Sub Item 1.1</a></li>
<li><a href="#">Sub Item 1.2</a></li>
<li><a href="#">Sub Item 1.3</a></li>
<li><a href="#">Sub Item 1.4</a></li>
<li><a href="#">Sub Item 1.2</a></li>

<li><a href="#">Sub Item 1.3</a></li>
<li><a href="#">Sub Item 1.4</a></li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><a href="#">Item 3</a></li>
<li><a href="#">Folder 2</a>
<ul>
<li><a href="#">Sub Item 2.1</a></li>
<li><a href="#">Folder 2.1</a>

<li><a href="#">Sub Item 2.1.1</a></li>
<li><a href="#">Sub Item 2.1.2</a></li>

<li><a href="#">Sub Item 3.1.1.1</a></li>
<li><a href="#">Sub Item 3.1.1.2</a></li>
<li><a href="#">Sub Item 3.1.1.3</a></li>
<li><a href="#">Sub Item 3.1.1.4</a></li>
<li><a href="#">Sub Item 3.1.1.5</a></li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><a href="#">Sub Item 2.1.4</a></li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><a href="http://www.mysite.com/style/">Item 4</a></li>
</ul>
<br style="clear: left" />

Hmm everything looks fine at a glance. Please post a link to the page on your site that contains the problematic script so we can check it out.

Thanks a lot. I resolved it. It was due to unnoticed extra tag before the java script.
any way thanks a lot for the pain taken to look into it and reply promptly.
