I have a vertical menu. I am wanting a menu like this layout below:

home - (want a link to homepage. No window popup at all)
other 1 - (this will have menu subs links)
other 2 - (this will have menu subs links)
other 3 - (this will have menu subs links)
other 4 - (this will have menu subs links)
other 5 - (this will have menu subs links)
contact - (want a link to homepage. No window popup at all)
about - (want a link to homepage. No window popup at all)

I have the menu sub links working fine from the main link. It's the main link that do not have menu sub links that I am having a problem with. I want the primary (main) link on those that do not have subs to be a link.

Main Link

To make one of the main menu items be a link without a submenu, the code should look like this:

,"Home  ","http://www.yoursite.com",,"Home",1

The first reference of Home is the button label, the URL is the link, and the second reference of Home is what will appear in the status bar when hovered over.

MENU NOT SHOWING NOW

I have added the above to the 3 primary menu items and now the menu does not show the sub menu for the other links. What to do?

dumpmenus();

The spaces are in the menu after primary title, but not showing when I submit.

Never mind. I had change the menu to click link instead of mouseover. Thanx for your helpful input!

See this test page:

http://www.pipingdesign.com/menuhelp/menu.htm

The vertical menu scrolls, the Home, Project List, MSDS Sheets Contact and Request a Quote links work as direct links, and the other menu items popout submenu items. Is this what you were looking for?

I didn't determine exactly what the problem was, I just copypasted your menu_array.js link info into a newly-downloaded copy of the appropriate mmenu.js file.

Often typos cause the menu not to work and are tedious to find after you're blurry-eyed from too much looking at HTML code.
