The menu that I've listed above (that I found on this site) looks fantastic - and does exactly what I need one to do. The problem is...I'm a beginner...and I don't know where to insert the CSS code. I know where to insert the html code. If someone can just tell me where to insert that - it should work for me. Thanks a lot!!

Hi lolee,you need to put the css in the head tags.Or in and external file.

the easiest way is just put it in the head like this:


<head>
put it here
</head>

Hello lolee

'Styles' or CSS come in 3 flavours - internal, external and inline.

Here are 3 nice easy tutorials to help you understand how to implement each kind.

Internal (the styles go in the head section of a web page): http://www.tizag.com/cssT/internal.php

External (the styles go in a seperate .css file but are referenced by a link in the head section of a web page): http://www.tizag.com/cssT/external.php

Inline (the styles go in a style="" attribute in the opening HTML tag of the element they are being applied to): http://www.tizag.com/cssT/inline.php

Hope that helps clarify things for you.

That was amazing help! Thank you! Now I have another question for you. I've got it all installed and my changes to the wording and the background color. For some reason "the right arrow" does not appear on the one that I needed the nested list for. I have it named "right.gif" in my images folder. Can anyone help me with that? Thanks again!!

For that we'll need a link to your page I'm afraid - it will make it easier to offer specific help rather than guessing.

Never mind - I figured it out!! I had to change the name from right.gif to images/right.gif! Thanks again, everyone!
