Do you have any examples of imageborderwidth?

What I am looking for is actual working examples which demonstrate the values making a difference.

imageborderwidth=0;
imageborderwidth=5;

P.S. What is the latest version of Milonic, and where can I get a copy?

Hi,

This will give you info on versions

http://www.milonic.com/menuvinfo.php

and you can download an evaluation version from that link. If you have a licensed menu then you need to be logged in on the main site under your registered name for the license and it will give you a copy of your licensed version of the newest one.

As to the imageborderwidth, there is no specific example for things like that style stuff, there's be hundreds of menus if we tried to do all of that, however when you download the menu, open the menu data file and add image=arrow;imageborderwidth=2; to the Home item. You'll see the border go around the image. I just suggest the arrow because it is the image included in the download and used as the subimage.

PS. Guy do you need the images that come with the sample you have done without the borders around them? I can make them like that if you need them.

Problem with CSS and Milonic

Dear Ruth

I now understand the problem.

There seems no way that Milonic can OVERRIDE the html IMG tag if it's declared explicitly set in the xyz.css file

e.g
css file declaration
img{
border: 2px solid black;
}

There is no way that imageborderwidth=0; can override the above configuration.

However, and this is a big however,
If Img is NOT declared in the css, then imageborderwidth works in the ways that you have been suggesting all along.

To amplify the point, I want all the non-milonic images to have a border: 2px.
And I want none of the Milonic images to have a border (border:0;)

This is not possible by using imageborderwidth in any configuration that I know.

I do thank you again for sticking with this problem, at least I know what does and what does not work.

Hi,

I do know how you can do it but you will need to create an id in the css rather than using the generic IMG tag

If you created the following id and then assigned it to your images, it would not apply to the images in the menu.



<img src="whateverimage.gif" width="18" height="17" id='imgbrd'>

I'm not sure if you can reverse that, that is assign the id to the menu. I know you can do classes but not sure about css ids

The reason it is happening is because its a generic css code, rather than a class.

Dear Ruth

Thanks for trying. However ;id=imgbed; does not work

aI("showmenu=Guy;id=imgbed;image=http://guy-sports.com/menu/button/star9.gif;text=Guy's Top 10 Jokes;url=../../humor/jokes/guys.htm");

...at least on my site / system.

css
#imbed {
border: 2px solid red;
}

Hi,

Sorry, I guess I wasn't clear on this. It's the other way around. The problem is that you are using the generic IMG in the css so it will apply to all images, even those in the menu. So, as you noted even if you used a class in the menu, that generic IMG{ took precedence. To avoid that, you create the id and apply that id to the images on the page, or I guess you could use a class to do it, also. I will post the issue to Milonic, maybe there is a way I don't know.

Dear Ruth

We are now in synch.

Generic css img code = milonic
Custom class for my page images.

While that is the only solution, it's unacceptable because I will have to change all 500 images by hand.

Let us hope that Milonic bring out a patch.

Let me be clear, you Ruth have done a wonderful job of answering my questions, I certainly don't want to shoot the messenger!

Guy.
