Hello everyone,

I have been skinning, everything seems ok, i am pretty good with CSS, and html tags, i have been able to get my skin to look the way I want it all except for one thing and it is driving me crazy! I just can't get the [MENU] to center on the page. I have tried everything. I have added a align:center tag to the .td that it in on the page. I have added align: center to all the menu elements in my css file, i have even added the center tag to the table and cells that it is in on the html, and still it shows up left justified when i publish my skin to my site. I just don't know where else to look as I have everything centered, the css, and the html.

I must be missing something here, or perhaps this is hard coded somewhere else other than on the css file and html.

THanks for your help!

Jamie

Dear jinky

Version 4.3.3 there you can find in the documentation (DotNetNuke Skinning.pdf file) the different attributes for the solpartmenu. (page 54 = page 58 of the .pdf document)
For instance you can align your menu. The menualignment="left" is standard.
You have the possibility to align {Left|Center|Right|Justify}

Thank you for your help. I am running 4.03, will this tag work with my version? I would upgrade to the new version, but I was reading some horror stories of dnn breaking while upgrading, so that isn't something I want to do right now as I am leaving for holidays tomorrow

I did look at the PDF file you mentioned, and I see the tag you are talking about, I just dont understand where to put that tag? Is it a CSS tag? Where does it go? Perhaps it is something that I dont have in 4.03.

 

Thanks,

Jamie

Dear Jamie

Take your time to upgrade a site. Don't do this when you go tomorrow for holidays...
That said read also the DotNetNuke Navigation WebControls.pdf document.  (then you have to do something on your holiday...
All depends which menu you're using.
Read also the very important blog of Jon Henning of the DNNMenu because it is important which menu you are using in the latest versions of DNN.

I am using a basic horizontal menu with 4.03. Do you know how to center this on the page? I have spent about multiple hours reading through all these blogs and pdf files and still can't see anywhere where it tells me how to do this simple thing. I think if I totalled it up i probably spent around 5-6 hours reading things and searching google, asp.net, this site, etc. I just can't seem to find anywhere that can tell me how to do this.

My skin is very basic, it has a single table with three rows. The row in the middle is my content pane, the row at the top is my menu, and the row at the bottom is my footer. it is very basic html, and the menu is very basic too. I havent done anything to the menu or the skin other than add this tag to the skin in the top row of my table "[MENU]".

That tag gives me a menu that is horizontal. But it is always left justified, and it is driving me crazy! I can't figure out why it is so hard to change this. My CSS file is basic too, and everything has an align: center tag on it for the menu, and for the row in the table.

Can anyone help me please!!

I just read through Jon Henning's blog and couldnt find the info there, or in the documentation.
