I have a 3 parter regarding the use of the NAV menu (not SOLPART).  I'm am trying to style of one level menu that has no submenus.  It's a horizontal orientation.

1)  Width of the menu items - how do I change it?  I'd like to space things out a little more than the default spacing.  Actually, it may not be the width of the menu items I need to change - perhaps it's the width of the separators or something else?

2)  Hover behavior - I have set the CSSNodeHoverRoot to "MainMenu_MenuItemSel" and have the following CSS style -

.MainMenu_MenuItemSel {
    color: #FFFFFF;
}

I believe this should cause the text to show as white when I hover over the menu item but there is no change whatsoever (the non-selected color of the text is gray).  It all seems rather simple and yet it doesn't work.  I've tried assigning this CSS class to CSSNodeHover with the same (lack of ) results.

3)  I understand that the NAV menu can be configured to render a tableless menu.  I even read somewhere it was the default.  I, however, am not getting a CSS menu.  What must I set to make that happen?

 

Thanks very much for any help - much appreciated,

BK

I solved part of my problem.  Here is how to incorporate the tableless menu.  I must admit, it is a little underwhelming as I'd hoped for more of an unordered list sort of sucker fish menu.

How did you address the width between menu items? I'm struggling with that as well... (think I'm using solpart rather than nav, though).

Thanks - John.

I eventually just used the House menu www.houseofnuke.com.  It will allow you to build a fully CSS Suckerfish style menu.  You can then style it as you like.
