Submenus not appearing


Poster: ndesilva

I have a site that was built for me, to which I need to add add'l submenus. Despite all my best efforts, reading your forum, following some examples set... I am still STUMPED.

The site is beta only right now and can be found at http://www.teletrol.com/web/home.shtml The submenu in question here is one that would branch off of the main Products navigation (there are two subnav items here: one for eBuilding and one for Integrator). Both of those product lines require add'l nav for the products they offer. That's what I cannot get to appear. (note: i'm taking a stab at where this subnav would appear at this time)

The sample code for that menu looks as follows:
[code]
_menuCloseDelay=0 // The time delay for menus to remain visible on mouse out
_menuOpenDelay=0 // The time delay before menus open on mouse over
//_followSpeed=5 // Follow scrolling speed
//_followRate=40 // Follow scrolling Rate
//_subOffsetTop=10 // Sub menu top offset
//_subOffsetLeft=-10 // Sub menu left offset
//_scrollAmount=3 // Only needed for Netscape 4.x
//_scrollDelay=20 // Only needed for Netcsape 4.x

The menu system you have now is no longer supported or developed. The current version is 5.39, available at http://milonic.com. You will need to upgrade and license the menu, after which we'd be happy to give you any help you need.
