Navigation bar improvements



User: Patrick M. 12 years ago
I am not yet quite satisfied with my navigation bar (www.limeclients.com) where it comes to the drop down menus. I have been unable to colour the main item on the drop-down (in my specify case - menus "Services" and "Malta". I would like these to also turn teal just like the drop down colours.

I have seen an ever web-built website where each menu item on the navigation bar had a different hover colour. How do you do that?

Also, on the main bar, I would like to separate the different menu headers with a subtle line - just like you have on your own site - https://billing.ragesw.com/forum.php How can this be done please? I have tried alternating the padding readings but it didn't work.

Also, I would love the website to have a dynamic insert; either a flash file with moving pictures with ingrained text or something similar. can you suggest freeware flash builders that I can use that I can then integrate into Everweb?

Use the Shape Options inspector to select the background color for the main navigation blocks.

If you want to add separators and rollover color to these blocks you need to overwrite the CSS. This page you will give you an idea of what is involved…

http://everwebcodebox.com/layout/navigation.html

The website you are referring to with different rollover colors does not use the EW navigation. Each menu block is created separately to allow the different rollover colors.

Flash is redundant now and dynamic content is created using CSS and Javascript. To get help or ideas about creating dynamic content you would need to point to some examples of the type of thing you are interested in.

Roddy,

I only wish to change the background colour on rollover over the menu items that have sub menus - to make the main menu item the same background colour as the submenus on rollover.

I have no idea what CSS is - website building is not my profession - I just built my own website from necessity. Which of the lines in your link provide the separators please?

Thanks

Patrick

#navmenu_menu0 ul li a {text-align:center;border-right: 1px solid #888;padding-right: 10px} /*navigation block separator */
#navmenu_menu0 ul li:last-child a {border:none} /*separator removed from the last block */
