Fly Out Menu Help

F

Fatchook

sI created a fly-out menu that I REALLY want to use. The plan was to put it
in a banner and contents template but the problem is that the menu flies out
to the right within the left frame and you can't see the fly out menu items
because they are hidden behind the right frame.

Is there a way I can create a web page where I can use my fly-out menu on
the left and have my main pages on the right without having to make the left
colum overly wide.

Structure your page layout using tables and not frames.

Ok, I've created my fly out menu and a header/banner.

Iv'e created a table which essentially consists of a top row for the
header/banner and two columns underneath it - the one on the left is for my
fly out menu and the one on the right will contain the actual web pages the
buttons link to.

My question is how do I put the links in the right column so that only the
right column changes when clicking on the menu? (as they would if using
frames) Or do I have to create a template and have the banner, left column
and right column load for each page?
I hope I've made myself clear enough, I know what I mean :)

You have to create a template, but you can use the FP Include Page component to include a page that
just has the banner into other pages.

You can do the same with your DHTML Menu, but the JS function part of the script must be after the
<body> tag of the page to be included in other pages or it has to be a external JS files that is
link to all pages in the head section of all pages that will be using the DHTML Menu include.
