Hi, I'm from germany, and I want to use the DHTML-Menu with PHP+MySQL but without AJAX.
Ich can't get the Menu working.
The SQL-Connection & Tables are all right, there are some Javascript-Errors.

I can't locate the problem, could someone please send me on working menu, where every file I need is in the same directory and no more.
Where I just have to upload it, and edit the SQL-Login.
Then it should work !!! :? :? :?

There's no way we can even begin to help if you don't give us something to work with. Please provide a URL.

Actually the menu is working. It's just dropping down behind the slide-in item. Since that's not Flash I'm not entirely sure at this point. I thought it might be a zindex problem, so I set up a test page at http://www.west.asu.edu/sa/testsite/index.php, but I haven't been able to pull it to the front.

Ruth, any thoughts?

It is a zindex problem. The div is nlz7cwdgdf, it's on the layer.html page and the zindex for that div is 100000. So if you set the zindex in the menus above that it sits over the div/window.

You also should set a top and left position for the main menu. I believe the default if you don't list one is whatever the default margins are, but that's a quess since I have never researched what the default is, it might have a default set in the menu program to take place if no top or left is specified...

Well, the Menu works all right but:

The menu look like this:

| ITEM 1 | ITEM 2 | ITEM 3 |

But I want it to look like this:

| ITEM 1 |
| ITEM 2 |
| ITEM 3 |

I hope you'll understand now

Hi,

You have the main menu set as horizontal i.e. orientation=1; so try setting it as vertical, orientation=0;

If you don't set the zindex in each menu, the menu will remain behind that window that scrolls onto the screen.

Interesting. 100000 is where I stopped testing (had to go to a meeting).
