Jon,

After reading your post in that thread, I think I've got it. I'm using the dnnmenu as a web control, the nav.ascx as a user control and the dnnmenu navigation as a provider. Is this correct?.  I made the comment that documentaion was scant.  I apologize for that.  I just didn't understand the documentation that was there. I love the provider model.  One issue I;m still having is with the CSSNodeSelectedRoot.  It says in the documetation that this will affect the active tab and override the CSSNode and CSSNodeHover.  I set the attribute in my ascx file and setup my css but nothing gets applied to the active tab.

.main_dnnmenu_rootitem {  /*root menu items */

cursor: auto;

color: #fff;

font-size: 9pt;

font-weight: bold;

font-style: normal;

background-color: Transparent;

font-family: Georgia, Tahoma, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;

white-space: nowrap; /*Word wrapping menu item now optional*/

padding: 0px 20px 5px 20px;/* creates spacing between root menu items */

height: 22px;

}

.main_dnnmenu_menuitemsel /*root menu item hover */

{

color: #b30401;

cursor: default;

}

.main_dnnmenu_rootmenuitemsel

{

color: green;

cursor: default;

}

Any ideas?  Thanks for your patience and no huge rush to respond.  You and Nina are real helps on these forums.

Yes.

As far as your css question, in order to quickly determine the cause I find it best to have a url to look at, this way I can analyze all css involved, not just the specific styles posted.  The next best thing is to send me the installable zipped skin.  If those two aren't possible, the next best thing is to open the page in IE or FireFox.  Go to the File Menu choose Save As...   Save the file to an empty folder.  This will create a htm file with a sub folder containing all the js and css.  Zip that once empty folder up and email it to me with detailed notes on what you are trying to accomplish (I get quite a few of these, so keeping them straight is a chore).

Paul,

Thanks for the email.  I have discovered that this is a bug in the provider.  See this gemini issue for more details on workarounds until this can be incorperated in an official release.

cool..thanks Jon.  I'll apply the workaround for now and let you know if I run into any more navigation issues moving forward on the development of my skin.
