Tabs Menu Help

[swift17]

1) Script Title: Tabs Menu (Rollover)

2) Script URL (on DD): http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamici...bmouseover.htm

3) Describe problem: I am trying to use this script inside a <tr> row of a table. I've got all the links edited for my site. The two links that use the rollover menu are inside seperate <td> cells which is inside a seperate <tr> row. When I rollover those two links, nothing pops up in the <ilayer>. Is there anything I'm doing wrong here?

I am also trying to center the layer inside of the <tr> row. Any help on that?

Please post a link to the page on your site that contains the problematic script so we can check it out.

Unfortunately, I am still constructing my website and haven't got hosting for it yet. Is there anyway you would accept me putting it in a zip file and emailing it to you? If so, I could do that. Thanks.

Or, you could attach to a thread. (making it much easier on anyone else trying to help )

How would I go about attaching a file?

How would I go about attaching a file?

just copy the script and post it in the context of your post.

I think anyone shold be able to read it and decipher what's going on..

Just my opinion..

As you can see, I'm trying to put the code inside my bottom table. On the page, the box is to the left of the table row and the menu links are in the center of the next table row. I'm thinking about putting them to the left though since I couldn't get the rollover box centered. But right now, when I roll over the two menu links that use the scipt, the new links don't pop up. So will the html help you out on this? I sure hope so. Thanks guys.

You need to place the script after the table.
