Hi Rick.  I didn't see the link to Timo's skin.  Maybe you forgot to add it, or am I overlooking it?

I'm having some NAV problems and I'm wondering if rendering the NAV skin objects as skins will help me.  I'd love to have a look at this example.

Thanks.

Thanks for the suggestion of the NAV menu.  I'd rather not have to replace the whole menu at this point but if it's what will fix the problem then I guess I can.  I didn't see a link in the email... was I missing something?  Is there a good link to a skinning reference for the nav menu?  I usually end up guessing properties and it is a pain.

Thanks so much for your help!!

Timo,

Thank you for the assistance.  I was using the nav menu but I didn't know there was an option to use the unordered list (the documentation doesn't even explain this).  I have implemented the unordered list but can now not get it to format correctly. It will not insert an image before the menu item, which is essential.  What am I missing?

Here is my code:


     <div id="menu">

       

       

            <dnn:NAV runat="server" ID="dnnNAV" ExpandDepth="3" PopulateNodesFromClient="false" ProviderName="DNNMenuNavigationProvider" IndicateChildren="false" ControlOrientation="Horizontal" CSSControl="AllMenu" SeparatorLeftHTML="<img src='/images/orangearrow.jpg' style='vertical-align:text-bottom;'/>" ControlAlignment="left">

                 <CustomAttributes>

                    <dnn:CustomAttribute Name="RenderMode" Value="UnorderedList" />

                </CustomAttributes>

            </dnn:NAV>

        </div>

        <div id="SubMenuHor" class="SubMenu">

            <dnn:NAV runat="server" ID="dnnNAV2" StartTabId="<%#Portalsettings.Activetab.Breadcrumbs(0).TabId%>" Level="Child" ProviderName="DNNMenuNavigationProvider" IndicateChildren="false" ControlOrientation="Horizontal" CSSControl="AllMenu">

                 <CustomAttributes>

                    <dnn:CustomAttribute Name="RenderMode" Value="UnorderedList" />

                </CustomAttributes>

            </dnn:NAV>

        </div>

               

    </div>

My CSS looks like this:

ul.AllMenu{    cursor: pointer;

    height: 16px;

    background-color: Transparent;

                border:none;

                text-align:left;

}

.AllMenu  li {    cursor: pointer;

    color: black;

    font-family: Tahoma, Arial, Helvetica;

    font-size: 10.5px;

    font-weight: normal;

    font-style: normal;

    background-color: Transparent;

                text-align:left;

                border:none;

                padding: 5px;

}

.SubMenu li {width:100px;margin-bottom:5px;background:#cccccc



My menu looks like this -- http://myriad.digitalsmartworks.com/H... but it supposed to look like this http://www.myriadsystems.com.

Any ideas??  

Many thanks!
Kristine
