Vista sliding menu error message

I've purchased a vista sliding menu.
I keep getting the error box attached with this email.  I check in Safari browser.  If I check in Internet Explorer, sometimes the menu comes up, sometimes it doesn't.  Will this be ok once online?
Thanks,
Diane Hayes



Answer:



Yes,
it will be ok online.
Nobody get this message online.

You need to click "Settings..." on that window, or go to the link:

www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager04.html

And set "Always allow" (needed only for local testing)

Search feature

hello my name is sonja.

I have 2 questions about the search feature.

1. Below you can see the search script I use for www.hbmgroup.com. Can you tell me if this is the right way to use your search script? Or do I need more script?

<div><a href='http://www.google.com/search?sitesearch=hbmgroup.com%26q='><b>SEARCH</b></a></div>

2. The old (pages) site of www.hbmgroup.com has just been removed and the new site is now online. But when I do a search request I still get the results for the OLD hbmgroup.com site. And these pages are not active any more. What do I need to do to get a good search result meaning: a search result that shows the NEW pages of hbmgroup.com?

Can you help me?

Thank you,
greetings
sonja


Answer:


Hello Sonja,

1. Yes, your search code is correct.

2. I suppose you need to wait a little while before google will update its cache.

Menu cutting off

Hello,

I am using one of your menus in my website and the right hand side of the menu seems to be getting cut off when the mouse is not hovering over it. When the mouse is hovering over the menu it is fine so I cannot work out why this is happening.

Is this something that can be fixed?

All the best,

Answer:


Hi,
the flash object has a width="970", but you have parameter
stretch_width_to = '1000px'

The menu cannot be stretched to the 1000px if you have the width="970".

Why it doesn't work without the "www" alias

hello.
when i go here: http://www.onesixmotorsports.com/osc/ the drop down links work. BUT when i go here (without the 'www' alias): http://onesixmotorsports.com/osc/ the drop down links (all links) are broken. i cannot figure out why. please help.

thanks, paul L.



Answer:



Hi,
because you are using an absolute path with "www" to load the menu SWF file:

<param name="movie"
value="https://www.onesixmotorsports.com/flash/adobe_style.swf" />

I recommend to use a relative path, like this:


<param name="movie" value="flash/adobe_style.swf" />

Centering menus

I cant get the menu to center. I tried the old school html <center> tag. I also tried the margin-left: auto, margin-right: auto, I even put the whole deal in a table and tried it. what do you recommend?
thnx
Dave


Answer:


Hi Dave,

I recommend to put the DIV id="f-source-menu" in another DIV or table cell with
align="center"

<div align="center">
<div id="f-source-menu">
  .....
</div>
</div>

Menu Fonts Firefox Mac vs PC

Hi Dmitry,
I'm using the Adobe Style menu. In Firefox on a MAC, the font is displaying
as Times New Roman instead of the correct font of Verdana which
is defined in the Flash settings. In Firefox on a PC it is fine. They are
both Firefox version 2.0.0.16. I tried adding a font tag directly to the
menu items (like I do with bolding in my example) but that didn't work. Any
ideas?

Thanks!

Answer:


Hi Pam,

I recommend to replace _mainFont:'verdana', with _mainFont:'Verdana',

That worked! How ridiculous that MACs are case-sensitive!
Thanks for your help.

NavGuide for Dreamweaver MX 2004

Hi

I have been evaluating your menu products and like what I see.  Unfortunately I am running Dreamweaver MX2004 and find I am unable to install NavGuide.  Dreamweaver's Extension Manager (version 1.6.062) refuses to install it, saying that Dreaweaver 8 or later is required.  Clearly this makes menu configuration a much more laborious task.

I wonder do you have any workaround to this problem?

Regards
Geoff Johnson



Answer:



Hi Geoff,
yes, only Dreaweaver 8 and later versions have nesseccary functions for the NavGuide.

But you can edit the DIV id="menu" directly, without a help of the NavGuide.
It's very easy.
Each line of a code represent a button.
Copy and paste a single line of code to add a new button; delete one line to remove a button.

Which code to paste.

Hi! 
I got one of your menus quite some time ago. I created it about a year ago, but haven't had time to finish it for my website--I now have time.  It's not perfect, but I want to copy and paste the code into my real page, but can't tell which code to copy and paste and also where to paste it.  Please help.


Answer:



Hi,
I recommend to insert the menu on a blank page.
You will see which code was added.

Paste all the menu code in one place in this order:

- script "ActiveContent..."
- DIV id="menu"
- DIV id="f-source-menu"
