Any idea why my dropdown menu would open to the far left of my screen instead of directly beneath the menu link?

Thanks,

oh that easy.. cuz your dropdown menu is in the second navbar move that to the top nav and it will work fine

ShackMaster · #4 01-29-2007, 11:10 PM

I moved it to the top, but it still wants to dropdown at the far left of the dropdown link.

Notice that UserCP drops down centered. I have everything the same for those two except the names and links. Doesn't make much sense.

I can't get this to work in 3.6.5

It shows the link on the navbar, but no little downarrow. And when you click it, the page reloads with the non-js navbar displayed.

I reverted my navbar template, then it worked great. Thanks.

Been looking for this for ages, finally found it. Working great on 3.6.5.

Thanks a lot.

Installed. So, I changed the code but I'm not sure what to do for the "LAST PART CHANGE ALL" Little help please

PapaSmurf · #9 04-30-2007, 01:56 PM

I'm wondering if this menu can be implemented into any other buttons? I have buttons on the top of my site and i would rather have the drop down menus there as the navbar is not enabled on the main page.

Here is the button code.

Code:

<td><a href="LINK"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/links_gallery.gif" alt="" width="100" height="29" border="0"></a></td>

Thanks in advance.

Any help with the FAR LEFT issue would be nice. Ever since I added this my Quick Links also is skewed left.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
