I need some help in changing the default arrows used to indicate curret navigation and if a root menu has any sub menu items. As far as I understand these images are as default being taken from <DNN install dir>\WebSite\images\ and are named breadcrumb.gif and menu_down.gif respectively.

I used DNN-Blue as base for my own skin and looking into the ascx file I saw this:

<

dnn:NAV runat="server" id="dnnNAV" ProviderName="DNNMenuNavigationProvider" ... NodeLeftHTMLBreadCrumbRoot="<img alt=&quot;*&quot; BORDER=&quot;0&quot; src=&quot;breadcrumb.gif&quot;/>" /></td>

 

This makes me able to replace the default "currently opened menu" arrow by placing a file with the name breadcrumb.gif in my own skin directory, thus overriding the default one. But how do I do the same with the arrow indicating sub menu items?

I searched alot for an answer about this and I also looked inside the "Nav.ascx.vb" file and it seems I should be able to pass an input parameter named "IndicateChildImageRoot" to the Nav, but I cannot get it to work. I've tried to add another parameter looking like ' IndicateChildImageRoot="[SKINPATH]dummy.gif" ' and also passing the complete path to my own image, but it doesn't work. Please tell me the correct syntax do change the images and also where to place it (in the .css/class or ascx ).

Also, If I want to hide theese two pictures in another skin, whats the syntax for that ?

Thank you in advance.

Sorry, I don't have any answers for you, but I have the same questions. Just chiming to maybe help catch the attention of someone with the answer and get notified of it.

I must be stupid as I've tried several variations of the above but cannot get it to work.

I have tried the following syntax:

IndicateChildImageRoot="&lt;img src=&quot;arrow.gif&quot;&gt;"  

IndicateChildImageRoot="../[SKINPATH]arrow.gif"

IndicateChildImageRoot="<%=SkinPath%>arrow.gif"

IndicateChildImageRoot="<img alt=&quot;*&quot; BORDER=&quot;0&quot; src=&quot;arrow.gif&quot;/>"

Whenever I insert any of theese into my menu declaration row  (in the aspx file) the default white arrow (indicating a menu has submenus) dissapears, but it doesn't get replaced with my own arrow.gif as I want it to. I have verified that I have an "arrow.gif" in the same dir as all the other skin files so that's not the problem. Any more suggestions I could try ?
