    Default I need help to add a 3rd menu option to my script

    Hi,

    I am using one of your scripts for a webpage, the link to the script I am using is http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamici...pmenuindex.htm

    the script is called AnyLink Drop Down Menu, as default the script includes 2 menu items and I want to add a 3rd one, but it will not allow me for some reason, and I cannot figure out what im doing wrong, below is the java code im using to get the 3 scripts working. And below that I have also put in the part of the page that holds the links to trigger the drop down menu...Is there somewhere that is should define that the menu has 3 parts now instead of 2 or how do I make it work.

    Any help you could give me would be much appreciated..

    Sure its something as simple as this...

    YOUR CODE:

    //Contents for menu 2, and so on
    var menu2=new Array()
    menu2[0]='<a href="http://cnn.com">CNN</a>'
    menu2[1]='<a href="http://msnbc.com">MSNBC</a>'
    menu2[2]='<a href="http://news.bbc.co.uk">BBC News</a>'

    //Contents for menu 2, and so on
    var menu3=new Array()
    menu2[0]='<a href="http://cnn.com">CNN</a>'
    menu2[1]='<a href="http://msnbc.com">MSNBC</a>'
    menu2[2]='<a href="http://news.bbc.co.uk">BBC News</a>'

    SHOULD BE:

    //Contents for menu 2, and so on
    var menu2=new Array()
    menu2[0]='<a href="http://cnn.com">CNN</a>'
    menu2[1]='<a href="http://msnbc.com">MSNBC</a>'
    menu2[2]='<a href="http://news.bbc.co.uk">BBC News</a>'

    //Contents for menu 2, and so on
    var menu3=new Array()
    menu3[0]='<a href="http://cnn.com">CNN</a>'
    menu3[1]='<a href="http://msnbc.com">MSNBC</a>'
    menu3[2]='<a href="http://news.bbc.co.uk">BBC News</a>'
