Chrome Drop Down Toolbar

Hi,

Script

http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamici...rome/index.htm

I'm trying to set this up for my website, which has a LOT of pages. I'd like to set this up as a PHP call, but it doesn't seem to be working. Here's the PHP call i use from each page:

<?php
include("menu.inc");
?>

menu.inc is basically the code for the drop downs. I've tried it with and without the standard HTML headers (<html> <head>...etc.), and I've tired the script call before and after the </head> tage, but the menu doesn't show up. Can you help?

Are you calling the js and css files in the <head> section of your page?

the menu.inc just has the code

Code:

<div id="chromemenu">
<ul>
<li><a href="http://www.dynamicdrive.com">Home</a></li>
<li><a href="#" onMouseover="cssdropdown.dropit(this,event,'dropmenu1')">Resources</a></li>
<li><a href="#" onMouseover="cssdropdown.dropit(this,event,'dropmenu2')">News</a></li>
</ul>
</div>

<!--1st drop down menu --> 
<div id="dropmenu1" class="dropmenudiv">
<a href=" etc etc etc

do you have it set up like this?

Are you testing it online?

Regards, Biggles

Hi Biggles, thanks for replying.

Yes, I've tried all this. Have the js and css in my head in the webpage and have the .inc file containing only the code for the menus. I've tried it locally and on the web and still have no menu bar (works great if i put the code right in the page itself).

If this helps, here are the files. Any thoughts would be appreciated!

the menu.inc file:

<div id="chromemenu">
<ul>
<li><a href="main.html">Home</a></li>
<li><a href="news.html" onMouseover="cssdropdown.dropit(this,event,'dropmenu1')">News</a></li>
<li><a href="jack.html" onMouseover="cssdropdown.dropit(this,event,'dropmenu2')">House that Jack Built</a></li>
<li><a href="enemyofmyenemy.html" onMouseover="cssdropdown.dropit(this,event,'dropmenu3')">Enemy of My Enemy</a></li>
<li><a href="creepysantas.html" onMouseover="cssdropdown.dropit(this,event,'dropmenu4')">Creepy Santas</a></li>
<li><a href="imperfect.html" onMouseover="cssdropdown.dropit(this,event,'dropmenu5')">Imperfect Thoughts</a></li>
<li><a href="wyndenfog.html" onMouseover="cssdropdown.dropit(this,event,'dropmenu6')">Wyndenfog Bluff</a></li>
<li><a href="stories.html" onMouseover="cssdropdown.dropit(this,event,'dropmenu7')">Stories</a></li>
<li><a href="writers.html" onMouseover="cssdropdown.dropit(this,event,'dropmenu8')">Writers</a></li>
<li><a href="http://malcolm-james.blogspot.com/" onMouseover="cssdropdown.dropit(this,event,'dropmenu9')">Blog</a></li>
</ul>
</div>


<div id="dropmenu1" class="dropmenudiv">
<a href="news3.html">News on The House that Jack Built</a>
<a href="enemymain.html">News on The Enemy of My Enemy</a>
<a href="news7.html">News on One Night in the House of the Creepy Santas</a>
<a href="news5.html">News on Malcolm's Animation Concepts</a>
<a href="news6.html">News on Imperfect Thoughts</a>
<a href="news4.html">The House that Jack Built: The Motion Picture?</a>
<a href="about.html">About Malcolm James</a></div>

...etc.
