Hello,

 

I am using DNN for the first time and am trying to install a new skin.  I am using version 5.0 and was doing perfectly fine until the very last section, modifying the menu bar.

Having looked through the forum for dotnetnuke.com I have not been able to find an answer. 

I am wanting to be able to create a horizontal navigation bar with a black background set as a image called nav-bar.jpeg and an orange oval shaped image behind the text of each link called menu_icon.jpeg.

The css code I currently have for the menu is:

.menupane
{
    background-image: url (nav_bar.jpeg);
    background-color: #000000;
    background-position: left top;
    background-repeat:repeat-x;
    padding-top: 0px;
    padding-bottom: 0px;
    padding-left: 0px;
    padding-right: 0px;
}

.MainMenu_MenuContainer {
    padding-left: 5px;
    padding-right: 7px;
    padding-top: 0px;
    border: 1px solid #000000;
    height: 63px;
}
.MainMenu_MenuBar {
    cursor: pointer;
    cursor: hand;
    height:62px;
    background-color: Transparent;
}
.MainMenu_MenuItem {
    background-image: url(menu_icon.jpeg);
    border-left: #000000 0px solid;
    border-bottom: #000000 1px solid;
    border-top: #000000 1px solid;
    border-right: #000000 0px solid;
    cursor: pointer;
    cursor: hand;
    color: #000000;
    font-size: 9pt;
    font-weight: bold;
    font-style: normal;
    background-color: Transparent;
    font-family: Tahoma, Arial, Helvetica;
    height: 50px;
}
.MainMenu_MenuIcon {
    background-color: #000000;
   
    border-left: #cad5ea 0px solid;
    border-bottom: #cad5ea 0px solid;
    border-top: #cad5ea 0px solid;
    cursor: pointer;
    cursor: hand;
    text-align: center;
    width: 15px;
    height: 50px;
}
.MainMenu_SubMenu {
    background-color: #fab913; 
    z-index: 1000;
    cursor: pointer;
    cursor: hand;
    filter:progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Shadow(color='#696969', Direction=135, Strength=3);
}
.MainMenu_MenuBreak {
    height: 1px;
}
.MainMenu_MenuItemSel {
    background-color: #8da4d3;
    cursor: pointer;
    cursor: hand;
    color: black;
    font-family: Tahoma, Arial, Helvetica;
    font-size: 9pt;
    font-weight: bold;
    font-style: normal;
    height: 21px;
}
.MainMenu_MenuArrow {
    border-right: #cad5ea 1px solid;
    border-bottom: #cad5ea 1px solid;
    border-top: #cad5ea 0px solid;
    font-family: webdings;
    font-size: 10pt;
    cursor: pointer;
    cursor: hand;
}
.MainMenu_RootMenuArrow {
    font-family: webdings;
    font-size: 10pt;
    cursor: pointer;
    cursor: hand;
}

 

For the html menu section I have:

<tr>
                            <td valign="top">
                                <table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%" border="0">
                                    <tr>
                                        <td class="menupane" id="MenuPane" runat="server" height="62px" valign="top" align="left">[MENU]</td>
                                    </tr>
                                </table>
                            </td>
                        </tr>

Please can someone advise how to sort this out.

Many thanks,

 

Trevor

The first thing that catches my eye is your containing the menu object. It looks like it's setup to be an editable pane that can have other modules added into it. Try removing the runat=server attribute (and possibly the class to avoid confusion when you create your CSS) as this section shouldn't need to have any other modules added to it. Then, move the height attribute over to the TR element (TR handles height definition much better in my experience). From there, you should have skin that renders the menu in the correct location. Beyond that, make sure you are assigning the class items to the Menu object inside your skin.xml file.

Something along these lines:

HTML:

<tr>
    <td valign="top">
        <table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%" border="0">
            <tr height="62px">
                <td id="MenuPane" valign="top" align="left">[MENU]</td>
            </tr>
        </table>
    </td>
</tr>

CSS:

#MenuPane  /* changed .menupane to #menupane to handle it being an ID now /*
{
    background-image: url ("nav_bar.jpeg");  /* Added quotes */
    background-color: #000000;
    background-position: left top;
    background-repeat:repeat-x;
    padding-top: 0px;
    padding-bottom: 0px;
    padding-left: 0px;
    padding-right: 0px;
}

.MainMenu_MenuContainer {
    padding-left: 5px;
    padding-right: 7px;
    padding-top: 0px;
    border: 1px solid #000000;
    height: 63px;
}
.MainMenu_MenuBar {
    cursor: pointer;
    cursor: hand;
    height:62px;
    background-color: Transparent;
}
.MainMenu_MenuItem {
    background-image: url("menu_icon.jpeg"); /* Added quotes */
    border-left: #000000 0px solid;
    border-bottom: #000000 1px solid;
    border-top: #000000 1px solid;
    border-right: #000000 0px solid;
    cursor: pointer;
    cursor: hand;
    color: #000000;
    font-size: 9pt;
    font-weight: bold;
    font-style: normal;
    background-color: Transparent;
