menu bar

[krysti]

on
http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamici...enucontext.txt
and
http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex1/sm/menu.txt
for the menu bar at
http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex1/sm/index.htm

is there a way that all the top selections of the accual menu bar (meaning the 5 selections going acrross "Web Building Sites | News Sites | Free Downloads | Search Engines | Miscellaneous" not the selections going down) can be directed to a different links


more explanation: these are the selections on the menu bar

Web Building Sites | News Sites | Free Downloads | Search Engines | Miscellaneous

each go to a different page when they are clicked on
Web Building Sites goes to page 3
News Sites goes to page 5
Free Downloads goes to page 4
Search Engines goes to page 2
Miscellaneous goes to page 1

what do i need to change to make this possible

Hi

In you at the link into the menucontect.js file:

menu.addItem("webmasterid", "Web Building Sites", "Web Building Sites", "http://www.dynamicdrive.com/", null);

If makes the top bar label have a direct url link

but there is still a bug if i do change that property from

menu.addItem("webmasterid", "Web Building Sites", "Web Building Sites", null, null);

to

menu.addItem("webmasterid", "Web Building Sites", "Web Building Sites", "http....com", null);

the option that appears under "Web Building Sites" when you have the mouse over it no longer appears

ok this i what i changed the code to and you can even go to the page i used the code for to see what i mean...

code:
//Top Nav bar script v2.1- http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex1/sm/index.htm

function showToolbar()
{
// AddItem(id, text, hint, location, alternativeLocation);
// AddSubItem(idParent, text, hint, location, linktarget);

True.. that why it's a drop down menu... you would only want to have the top link as a direct url link.. for lets say... the site home page or if no other option is under the topic....

[krysti]

ok what about having the option to have a link at all to the main bar

MAIN PAGE | Pick a Doll | Backstreet Boys | Port Isabel, TX | LINKS

and there just there as a guide not an accual link
