hi,
started using this product instead of another which takes about twice as long to load - so I'm impressed so far. Is it possible to have menu borders that are just at the top and bottom of the menu (and not on the left and right)?
If not - any good workaround?
Any suggestions gratefully received!

Haven't tried this, but I would think the rawcss= property with a border-bottom... might do the trick.

thanks for suggestion.
within my menu style, I tried using
rawcss='border-bottom: 5px solid #808080; border-top: 5px solid #808080';
but this placed a border on the border of each menu item. I was trying to place a border at the top and bottom of the menu as a whole.
Can you help?

rawcss is also a menu item property. Try a border-top in your very first menu item, and a border-bottom in the very last.

Hi
This works fine now thanks. However, I found that the padding I defined on the menu style appeared outside the border, so I had to switch off the padding for the menu style and define padding for each menu item.
Thanks for your help
