MadKad · #83 01-02-2007, 06:42 PM

Is it just one drop down that isnt working? also can I have the template for the mod nav as you gave me the template called navbar template

Chadi · #84 01-02-2007, 06:45 PM

header and navbar are the only templates involved and its that custom mod (yours) drop down menu called "navigation" (you can see it now) the only one that does not work. It does not show the drop down arrow, nor does anything happen on click.

MadKad · #85 01-02-2007, 06:50 PM

Can I have a look at the website in question

also please can I have a look at the code in template named top_nav

Even though it is there, I am not using "top nav" but here is the code

If you look at header / navbar they related to each. My actual vb navbar is in header template (due to the way the custom skin was created). But the code to pull it up is in navbar template (code for your mod)

The site is www.talkjesus.com

Using 3.6.4

If you read page 3-5 in this thread, that is where (page 5) I finally got this to work. That was two months ago and it did work. Last night something went wrong but I cannot remember what I did (or perhaps didn't do) to make this happen.
