Width of the buttons

Hello,
Can I make the width of the buttons smaller so that they fit tighter around the text. It seems that there is a default space of about 1/2 inch on either side of the text within the button. Thank you.



Answer:


Yes,
use parameter "_mainButWidthExt", by default it's _mainButWidthExt:18.

Two lines text formatting

Hello,

I would like to make some of the titles for my buttons two lines, normally I would use < br > to do this, but Dreamweaver isn't allowing me to. What can I do to fix this?

Thank You!

Answer:



Karen,
use encoded <br/> - &lt;br/&gt;

For example: < div><a href='http://...'>Line1 &lt;br/&gt; Line 2</a>< /div>

Two menus on one page

Is it possible to have two menus on the same page, that are independant of one another ... i.e., deploy one menu as a top nav bar (at the top of the page) and then use another one as a mid page nav bar located midway down the page (each offering different menu selections)?



Answer:



It is possible with one horizontal menu and one vertical menu on the same page.

If you need more than one horizontal menu, I recommend to keep each
additional menu inside iframe.

Problem after upgrading DW to 8.0.2

Every thing was going great, then I upgraded to DW 8.0.2 to fix a FTP issue. Now when I open a page in DW with a f-source flash menu I get a warning that the page contains Object tags that are improper. DW then adds the following code to my page: <script src='Scripts/AC_RunActiveContent.js' type='text/javascript'></script>

Now the navigation menu is back to default. See http://ops.ntinet.com/template.htm for the page with issues. See http://ops.ntinet.com for a page that displays correct. Please advise...

Chris



Answer:



Chris,
your flash menu code was converted.
The Dreamweaver update 8.0.2 contains Active Content Converter which
is not compatible with our menu.

Disable the active content converter:

Replace the code inside of the DIV id="f-source-menu" with original
flash menu code.

Flash over flash

I am using the Vista Drop Down Menu and have a flash movie loading under it - however the submenus appear to be showing up behind the flash movie - please see my link below. Is there a way to fix this?

When you rollover Special Services from the top menu - there should be 4 items in the sub-menu. If I delete the flash movie - I see the submenu

Many thanks!
