HTML - Using Spry Accordion, But Has Issues!
Hi
I am doing a quick website on the cheap. So I decided to add a Spry Accordion for the menu set up. The issue I am finding is that when I click any of the menu items a boxed focus selection border appears around the whole menu, which looks bad in the design. Is there any way to get rid of this issue so when you use the menu this doesn't appear? Also, at present you have to have one of the menu items open as a selection. Is it possible to manipulate the code so that none of the menu elements are open to start? Thanks in advance Similar TutorialsGood afternoon, I'm currently designing a site for a large exterior decorating company. I've had trouble, but nothing I couldn't work around. My graphic design skills are great, but my web coding is amateur at best. I've compiled a fixed-width site, it looks great in every browser, and in different resoultions. here's the kicker. (and I would have included code if the site were local on this computer, but it's on my laptop) My navigation is giving me major issues. Its set up to link to the site directory folder on my pc, the preview is real-time - what i'm trying to say is you can navigate the site from my pc, although it's not online. and the links work. I have one main-navigation, with drop-downs to a maximum of 2 sublevels (ie: spry vertical menu bar). I can navigate the main level to any of the sub-levels without issue. Code: /../index.html ---- to ---- /../products/siding/wood.html BUT when navigating back to any menu (or to a different sub-level in the same category, ie: siding/aluminum.html) for lack of a better explanation - the url won't drop the current directory. What I mean by this is Code: /../products/siding/wood.html ---- to ----- products/siding/aluminum.html redirects to products/siding/siding/aluminum.html So what i'm asking is if someone can assist me in fixing my page so it doesn't do this. I feel after writing this that my issue lies in the fact that I haven't specified index.html as my root directory. You would assume it would come intuitively for the page to drop the current directory, especially when you're specifying a page in a different level.. But apparently not. Also, i've explored it before but never found a decent answer: Is there any code that will allow me to embed the navigation to each page from a single file. Allowing easy changes to the navigation, simply by editing one file - the navigation? How does the Tab and Accordion effect created in this website www.philjobspot.com I'm a little stuck with my spry menu. I have been editing it and trying to find the best way to position it and also how to add a border to encompass and seperate all elements. Basically I was wondering if this was the beat way to code the menu or if I was way off Right now my code looks like this: On the page- Code: <script src="SpryAssets/SpryMenuBar.js" type="text/javascript"></script> <link href="SpryAssets/SpryMenuBarHorizontal.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" /> <style type="text/css"> .MenuBarHorizontal{ position:absolute; left: 50%; top: 215px; min-width:690px; max-width:690px; margin-left:-345px } .style1 { color: #000000 } </style> </head> <body id="page6"> <ul class="MenuBarHorizontal" id="MenuBar1" name="MenuBar1"> <li><a href="#" class="style1">xxxxxxx</a> </li> <li><a href="#" class="MenuBarItemSubmenu style1">xxxxxx</a> <ul> <li><a href="#" class="style1">xxxxx</a></li> <li><a href="#" class="style1">xxxxx</a></li> <li><a href="#" class="style1">xxxxx</a></li> <li><a href="#" class="style1">xxxxx</a></li> </ul> </li> <li><a href="#" class="MenuBarItemSubmenu style1">xxxxxx</a> <ul> <li><a class="style1" href="#">xxxxxx</a> <ul> <li><a href="#" class="style1">xxxxxx</a></li> <li><a href="#" class="style1">xxxxxx</a></li> </ul> </li> <li><a href="#" class="style1">xxxxxx</a></li> <li><a href="#" class="style1">xxxxxx</a></li> </ul> </li> <li><a href="#" class="style1">xxxxxx</a></li> <li><a href="#" class="style1">xxxxxx</a></li> <li><a href="#" class="style1">xxxxxx</a></li> <li><a href="#" class="style1">xxxxxx</a></li> </ul> In the Menu Bar CSS File - Code: @charset "UTF-8"; /* SpryMenuBarHorizontal.css - Revision: Spry Preview Release 1.4 */ /* Copyright (c) 2006.

This might belong in the CSS forum? I'm trying to link to the "Legislation" tab from the footer links. All of this content is on one page and i can't seem to link to it. I tried adding an anchor to Legislation but that didn't work. there must be a way. The page is built using Spry in Dreamweaver CS3. thanks for your help http://www.dynamitedave.com/rsc/index.shtml Hi, My website is www.bcsticketsnow.com. My spry menu at the top works perfectly in firefox, not so perfectly in IE. In IE the menu shows up in the top left corner when you mouseover. In firefox it correctly drops down below the parent item. I made it in dreamweaver. Any idea why it does that? My styles are at bcsticketsnow.com/styles.css my .js file is bcsticketsnow.com/SpryMenuBar.js the rest you can view the source on any page. Any help is much appreciated, thanks! Joel Hello everyone. I have a spry accordion menu in a table and as you well now when it is clicked you get a highlight around the edge of the spry object, i'm on a mac so mine is grey and when I look at it on my friends PC it is blue. Is there any way to simply get rid of this highlighting effect? Thanks Thecaia23 Hi, I have a problem with my spry menu and was wondering if there was a way of fixing it. Firstly it only occurs in IE Second, it fixes it self when I remove the IFRAME on the right (problems still there even if I use OBJECT instead of IFRAME) The problem is, the spry menu bar sub menus wont open out in IE whereas it does in FF. ANY help would be appreciated I moved this thread to CSS. It is in the wrong place. http://www.htmlforums.com/css/t-spry...ie-117172.html Hello, I'm working on website and I want to use spry drop down menu bar and I have trouble with it. This is how I want it to be like : When menu is active(rollover hover), it turns darker blue from light blue, and the submenu is same light blue when its not active, but it turns to pink when its active. By far, what I got is : When I roll over submenu, the color is not different from the menu unless the submenus has subsubmenu.... (its orange, but I'm gonna change to pink) like this: It is kinda hard to explain.. but I hope you understood. Thank you very much! --------- here is code : I didn't make any change for the upper part, and this is only part that I made changes. and I only changed colors. --------- } ul.MenuBarHorizontal a{ display: block; cursor: pointer; background-color: #33CCFF; padding: 0.5em 0.75em; color: #FFFFFF; text-decoration: none; } ul.MenuBarHorizontal a:hover, ul.MenuBarHorizontal a:focus{ background-color: #336699; color: #FFF; } ul.MenuBarHorizontal a.MenuBarItemHover, ul.MenuBarHorizontal a.MenuBarItemSubmenuHover, ul.MenuBarHorizontal a.MenuBarSubmenuVisible{ background-color: #336699; color: #FFF; } ul.MenuBarHorizontal a.MenuBarItemSubmenu{ background-image: url(SpryMenuBarDown.gif); background-repeat: no-repeat; background-position: 95% 50%; } ul.MenuBarHorizontal ul a.MenuBarItemSubmenu{ background-image: url(SpryMenuBarRight.gif); background-repeat: no-repeat; background-position: 95% 50%; } ul.MenuBarHorizontal a.MenuBarItemSubmenuHover{ background-image: url(SpryMenuBarDownHover.gif); background-repeat: no-repeat; background-position: 95% 50%; background-color: #336699; } ul.MenuBarHorizontal ul a.MenuBarItemSubmenuHover{ background-image: url(SpryMenuBarRightHover.gif); background-repeat: no-repeat; background-position: 95% 50%; background-color: #FF3366; i think this is an easy one..... i am using 2 identical spry cluster effects - but two links to two slides i have problem - the spry slide effect works fine for the first instance - but not for the second instance. what changes need to be made to the Cluster call to get it to work?!?! here is a snippet of my source code to reveal the problem.... ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// <!-- WORDSFORMS --> <Div id="sec1" style="display: none;" class="sec1"><strong>Wordsforms</strong> <br> <a onClick="cluster.start();"> > <!-- open symbol --> </a> <div id="first_cluster" class="wordsforms" > <p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit.

It copied all the necessary CSS and JS into a folder for me. I have one question. whenever i selected (clicked) on an item(link) on the submenu. the submenu stays open while the page load in the frame. Is there a way to configure it so when i click on an item in the submenu, the submenu will close and the page will still load in the frame? Hi. i have a option menu that come behind the adobe pdf embed. after open this link http://thewebcodes.com/index.php?id=2 when we go to the first menu option, it goes behind (this only appens in Internet Explorer) How could i solve it? Thank's in advance I have a page I created in dream weaver. It displays fine in IE7, but in IE6 it does not. Here is a link to the page: Problem Page If anyone has any ideas, I'd really appreciate it. I'm experiencing an issue when using DIVs in DIVs.. I have a container-DIV and a content-DIV, and I would like the container-DIV to stretch vertically as necessary based on how much content is in the content-DIV. Code: <html> <header> <style type="text/css"> #divContainer{ position:absolute; top:10px; left:10px; height:100%; width:200px; background-color:#CCC; } #divContent{ position:absolute; top:10px; left:10px width:180px; background:color:#BBB; } </style> </header> <body> <div id="divContainer"> <div id="divContent"> <!-- Fill me with content --> </div> </div> </body> </html> This is basically the code I'm using... whenever the content amount pushes the divContent lower than the bottom of the divContainer, it just overflows out and down the page. What am I doing wrong? Edit: OOPS I set height to 100px on the divContainer, it was supposed to be 100% Arg... IE is bugging me as usual.... Now I've been working on the fantasy football site the past few days getting ready for the fantasy season... but when I look at the site on IE we have a few issues going on... here they a 1. text rendering on the image switcher... why does the text look bold? The info there is using the default font-size of 13px which I set... I'm assuming that probably has something to do with it. 2. The poll part 1 Why on earth is the question indented 6px? The links in the "newest articles" section are set to indent 6px... but I set that on the list... the question of the poll isn't even in a list and it somehow got indented... 3. More crappy text rendering on the poll answers... now I'm seeing the results because I voted and the text looks absolutely horrendous... no idea why either. Any help with these IE crazy things would be greatly appreciated... thanks! Right then... Problem is, uploaded website, thought that it was ok, checked in Firefox, Safari and even icab... did not check IE (rookie) and did IE have problems? Of course. Basically Some of pics are not showing up - mainly in the shop and one or two on the main pages. I cannot work out how to fix, def not broken links, really boring I know, but can anyone help? Link to site: http://www.thefrenchpantry.co.uk much appreciated... Hello! I'm having quite a problem implementing multiple backgrounds into my website. Simply put I want to have a top bar, that will function as header, and a bottom bar, that will function as a footer. I've tried the following solution but it just doesn't seem to work. The div id "bgBottomDiv" just won't show. I was hoping someone could help me out. HTML: HTML Code: <body> <div id="wrapper"> <div id="bgBottomDiv"> "Content goes here " </div> </div> CSS: Code: #wrapper{ position:relative; margin:0 auto; width:1100px; } body { background-image:url(/images/Styler_top.png); background-attachment: scroll; background-repeat: repeat-x; background-position: top; font-family: arial; color: #111111; font-size: 0.75em; /* 12px/16=0.75 em */ word-spacing: 2px; line-height: 175%; } #bgBottomDiv{ background-image: url(images/Styler_top.png); background-repeat: repeat-x; background-position: bottom; } Thanks in advance! Alright, so I have this site on which I need a certain part of the site (the content part where the main text bit is) to extend down to the bottom (and preferably no longer), so that if the window is smaller or bigger the text will still just go all the way down to the bottom of the page, and when the text is further down that div will have a scrollbar so you can scroll through the text. The main issue is making it so the end of the div is always on the bottom of the page. (I've tried height=100% on that div but then it just goes below the bottom for some reason.) This is the site. And here's the code: Code: CSS: div.main { position: absolute; top: 181px; left: 110px; width: 510px; height: 1500px; background: url("images/Content Box Bit.png"); } div.news { position: absolute; top: 25px; left: 15px; width: 494px; height: 372px; overflow-x: hidden; overflow-y: auto; } Code: HTML: <div class="main"> <img src="images/News and Updates.png"><div class="news"> <span class="f4"><?php include('sitemapbase.php'); ?></span></div> </div> The reason the height of main=1500px is that that's not gonna be scrollable anyway, and I just added a random value to assure that went to the bottom no matter what. Thanks for any help. Wasn't really sure where to put this, sorry if it's the wrong place.. EDIT: Just encountered an additional issue, being that the navigation menus (to the left) look off in IE. The background seems not to start where the div starts. Suggestions? http://www.farewell-travel.com/newsl...rch2012_2.html Why does this look like crap in Internet Explorer? (Specifically talking about the "Highlights" box) It looks fine in firefox but not on IE. I've tried everything to fix it, I don't know what to do! The width dimensions for some reason are way off. It bloats up to 272px when it should be 200px! Please help! Thanks -Please note this is an e-mail newsletter, that is the reason I'm using tables!
