Widget Question

[Kylsix]

I am trying to change the vbcms_widget_sectionnavext_page to suit the needs of the site I am creating. I am having trouble changing a couple of things:
1. The title bar of the widget (Offical Content on page) sticks out several pixels past the edge of the rest of the widget below. I've changed shadows, padding, everything I can think of to get that to change. I think it's associated with the width of the widget (a percentage), but I have no idea where it is or how to find it.
2. I want to get rid of the menu expansion within the widget (the '+' or '-' symbol), and have the menus permanently expanded, and not even have the option to close or expand that menu.

Any/all help is greatly appreciated.

1. The title bar of the widget (Offical Content on page) sticks out several pixels past the edge of the rest of the widget below. I've changed shadows, padding, everything I can think of to get that to change. I think it's associated with the width of the widget (a percentage), but I have no idea where it is or how to find it.

It's caused by the style variable vbcms_widget_block_padding, which is adding 6px to the edges.


2. I want to get rid of the menu expansion within the widget (the '+' or '-' symbol), and have the menus permanently expanded, and not even have the option to close or expand that menu.

At the bottom of template vbcms_widget_sectionnavext_page, try commenting out the javascript like this:

<vb:comment>
<script type="text/javascript">
initVbTreeMenus({vb:raw menu_static});
</script>
</vb:comment>


(or you could just delete the script tags and the line in between).

Thanks a bunch, the block padding worked. I could swear I tried that, maybe I'm just dumb.

When you disable that java script it disables that menu entirely. I may need to edit the java script itself, which is fine, I was just hoping there was a built-in option within VB.

Oops, I guess I didn't actually try it, it just seemed to look right. But that thing is a YUI treeview, so there may be a way to configure it. Or maybe you can just leave it commented out but figure out how to turn the html into working links.
