Adding a text label before menuitem

The following link works and my menu style shows the underline when I hover over the menuitem as desired.

aI("text=» '.$label.';url='.$url.';");

What I want though, is to have the »  appear before the menuitem url label so that it does not have the underline appear under it as well when I hover over the link.

I am creating these links dynamically with php and so am creating a number of the links like above in sequence - all working fine.

Trying
» aI("text='.$label.';url='.$url.';");
or similar combinations is not working

Any ideas?

Hi

why don´t you create an image of that » ?? and place it there as an ("image=raquo.gif;text=.....;url=.;");

Hehe - thanks that will work just fine as I'm not changing the meniuitem background color.

I wonder if there was not an equivelent of the image parm but for text.

Hi

even if you change it (the background), in this case, you could use an overimage.gif or - as it is a gif, could be transparent.

At first I did not need to change the bgcolor onhover but now I do. The overimage works except once the page is selected and the pagematch correctly uses the selected style, the image reverts back to the non-selected image and now has the wrong background.

Is this a bug - looks like I have version 5.721

All I really need is to have the silly &raquo before the menuitem label but I don't want the onhover underline appearing.
