Hi David,

The Solpart Menu, Menu and Nav tokens are all technically different. However, Solpart, which was created by Solutions Partners was the first of these types.   The latest version of DNN uses the NAV token to generate a menu. The easiest way to style any of these menus is to use the Firefox browser, download and install the web developer plug in. Once you have it installed, you can click the css menu and choose edit css. A window will appear at the left side or bottom of the screen and you can choose the skin.css and make all the adjustments to your menu you want until you get it right. You can then save that as your skin.css and upload it to the server to make the changes permanent.

If you are downloading a stylesheet and working with it using something like dreamweaver, be sure it is the right version. The latest versions have some nice new styles if you are using the Nav token. Well, I like them anyway.

There are also some settings in the skn.xml file. You can make the menu appear horizontally or veritcally and there are a few other settings you can use. Be sure to alos take a look at your other style sheets to make othe adjustments on your site.

I hope this helps.

Thanks that is very helpful information.

But, styling, if I change the menubar to an image background and leave it all pretty much stock... how do I do things like:

1. add graphical separaters between the primary top level menu items?

2. make the chosen top level menu item a different color of text when it is selected? All I get is that little arrow to the left indicating that top level item is the chosen one. I want the text to be a different color, too. I don't see anything in the Skin.css or is that when I need to add an attribute to Skin.xml?

This basic stuff is not very obvious to a first time user... maybe its in the text document that comes with SolPart, but does that doc give me attributes and such that wont work with DNN/NAV?

thanks

David
