Dear jhoelz
First
I want to tell you that I don't setup yet a DNNMenu. I've just read the documentation. Next week (perhaps two weeks) I gone try to setup a DNNMenu and explore all the possibilities.
Second
What did Jon said in his blog of 6/9/2006.
While its current implementation does not have all the features of the original Solpart Menu, it does include some new functionality that I have always wanted to add.
...
No hardcoded Markup
Probably the biggest regret I had in the original design of the Solpart menu was the hardcoding of certain tags in the code. This included the NOWRAP attribute added to the menu items, the use of spacer.gif and to obtain the correct spacing, and the worst of all, the hardcoding of the border around the menu items when hovering. None of this hardcoding is present in the DNNMenu.
...
That said, I conclude that there is no a hardcode style set for the separator.
Third
What did I see in your post (the first post of this thread). There were only CSS styles set. If there is not a content set as separator (like a spacer.gif for instance) then you can't set a CSS style for that.
In the documentation you find also that you can set a separatorHTML. This is the separator between Root level menu items. This can include custom skin images, text, and HTML
{i.e. <!CDATA[ <img src="file.gif" /> ]]>}
Fourth
Perhaps this is the way to set something for the separator. Directly in the .ascx control.
<dnn:NAV runat="server" id="dnnNAV"
ProviderName="DNNMenuNavigationProvider"
CSSSeparator="RtMnItMiSprt" />
separatorHTML="<img src="RtMnItMiSprt.gif" />"
/>
[RtMnItMiSprt is the abbreviation for RootMenuItemMiddleSeparator (Own Settings). I use always the same name for the css style as for the image that I use...]
Make this sense. Tell me. I'm curious.
