Dated: Monday November 17 2003 - 14:01:16 GMT
Is there anyway to upate menu width (example : menuwidth=100%) and submenus width ?
AND/OR
update align menu ? (like menualign=center)

I am not sure what you mean by "update". The two variables that you are talking are available. Have you gone to the Milonic home page and printed out the "Reference Guides"? If not I would suggest that you do so. Lots of variables to deal with.

Yes, I was speaking of those files. The only advice that I think of to give you about how things work, is for you to download several examples and look at the code in the "menu_data.js" file and see how the variables are used. Also, make sure that you read all the "txt" files that come with the download.
When I started building menus, I took one of the examples and kept modifying it to meet my personal requirements. There is not sure and safe way to get from the beginning to the end.
Sorry that's the best advice I can give. Maybe some others have better advice for you.

Maybe I'm missing something here, but the titles of the pages clearly indicate where in the system each of the parameters belong.

Yes, but. I successfully find "menualign="
But "align=center"
to put menu at the center of the page doesn't work here.

'align=center' does not position the menu itself. From the Menu Properties Reference Guide...
Quote:
align can be declared in either the style, menu or menu item and is used to position the text inside menuitems
May I respectfully suggest you go through those 3 documents to get a better understanding of what they require.

I'm sorry to disturb you for a probably stupid question, but i'm still not able to center my menu.

Some of the code you have you do not need

Some of the menu code you do no (or should not) need and may be causing the problem...
Code:
with(milonic=new menuname("Main Menu")){
menuwidth="100%";
menualign="center";
screenposition="center";
style=menuStyle;
top=5;
left=10;
alwaysvisible=1;
orientation="horizontal";
aI("text=Home;url=http://www.test.com/home.asp;status=Back To Home Page;");
aI("text=Home;url=http://www.test.com/home.asp;status=Back To Home Page;");
aI("text=Games;showmenu=Games;");
aI("text=Affiliate;showmenu=Affiliate;");
aI("text=Marketing;showmenu=Marketing;");
aI("text=Support;showmenu=Support;");
aI("text=Financial;showmenu=Financial;");
aI("text=Administration;showmenu=Administration;");
aI("text=Search cus.;url=http://www.test.com/customers/search.asp;status=Search a customer;");
}
menuwidth="100%";
menualign="center";
screenposition="center";
style=menuStyle;
top=5;
left=10;
alwaysvisible=1;
orientation="horizontal";
aI("text=Home;url=http://www.test.com/home.asp;status=Back To Home Page;");
aI("text=Home;url=http://www.test.com/home.asp;status=Back To Home Page;");
aI("text=Games;showmenu=Games;");
aI("text=Affiliate;showmenu=Affiliate;");
aI("text=Marketing;showmenu=Marketing;");
aI("text=Support;showmenu=Support;");
aI("text=Financial;showmenu=Financial;");
aI("text=Administration;showmenu=Administration;");
aI("text=Search cus.;url=http://www.test.com/customers/search.asp;status=Search a customer;");
}
with(milonic=new menuname("Main Menu")){
menuwidth="100%"; <--- Remove this
menualign="center"; <--- Remove this
screenposition="center";
style=menuStyle;
top=5; <---- Remove this
left=10; <---- Remove this
alwaysvisible=1;
orientation="horizontal";
Or you can just "comment" these out by placing double forward slashes // in front of these lines. Give this a try and see if it helps
