Dynamic-Fx's slide-in menu

[radclyffe]

hi
http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex1/davidmenu.htm

i really like this menu and i would like to use it on ALL my web pages

however i need to change the colors of the menu to reflect the colors of my different pages--some of the backgrounds are blue- some black etc-

- is there anyway to do this--

All configurations to the menu are done inside "ssmItems.js" file-- which is uploaded to the site--

i just dont see if there is only one config file how it can be edited to reflect each different web page--

the sites i have seen this on have all their web pages the same color--
i sure HOPE someone here has the answer as i love this menu and would very much like to use it through out my site
thanks in advance

As far as I know. Coming right off the top of my head. Just edit these...

<style type="text/css">
<!--
A.ssmItems:link		{color:black;text-decoration:none;}
A.ssmItems:hover	{color:black;text-decoration:none;}
A.ssmItems:active	{color:black;text-decoration:none;}
A.ssmItems:visited	{color:black;text-decoration:none;}
//-->
</style>

for instance, instead of having the color as black or blue. If you take out black and add #000000 and that is black also. If you don't know the color codes. Google in "Color code chart".

hey ben
many thanks for the quick reply-- your right as far as changing the LINK colors -- no problem there-- i got that down--

as for the rest of it

i am so stupid--

i cant believe i didnt see this-- i was trying to make something very hard out of something that was easy-- here is the code to change the look of the menu---
all i have to do is copy it to the different pages and change the colors -- as i said before DUH

Configure menu styles below
NOTE: To edit the link colors, go to the STYLE tags and edit the ssm2Items colors
