Another interested person wondering how either
a) The arrow can be kept while having the tab highlight as other tabs do
b) The pull-down menu appear on hover, instead of on click.

I'd also be interested in how we can do something which I'd imagine is much more simple....just add a new tab that would function as an external link when clicked. Just want a nice quick link to places such as my Wiki. ^^;

Works great for all my FPS games stat tracker links.

I have seen a lot of folks asking how to do the down arrow so that it would highlight properly, as well as the background.

Using this code:
instead of this:
worked well for us.

To get the down arrow use the ampersand code #9660;

Great article, tnx!

thanks alot this is what i was looking for

So I got this working, except.. I am not totally pleased with the location I put it in.

What other options are there to the navtab_ function when using the CMS? Alternatively, if anyone could explain how I could find the alternatives myself that would be wicked :)

It would be nice to know how to select background, text and hover colors so that they are different to the subNavBar ones.

I personally prefer this arrow: src="{vb:stylevar imgdir_misc}/menu_open.gif
and its different from the one used in the subNav.

Thank you soooo much!!

Hi,

I have a mystery with this drop down tab.

I've had it working on my site for a while. Today, just for the heck of it I tested my site in Google Chrome.
In Google Chrome, the Title wording of the tab appears below tab and the tab is blank. When I click onto the Title, the drop down menu appears.
This does not happen in Internet Explorer 8.

The same thing happens in Firefox.

In addition when viewing my site in Google Chrome and Firefox, the tab does highlight, but doesn't highlight in Internet Explorer 8

Any ideas how to correct this mystery with Google Chrome & Firefox?

Thanks.

Nice little mod. Anyone have any ideas how to reduce the box size?

I take it it's some global setting somewhere and unrelated to this actual mod. Cheers
