Changing
the DHTML Menu.
 |
You'll need to open the
Main.dwt template, and go into HTML view in Dreamweaver
to make the changes necessary to get the look you want |
 |
The lines that need changing
are probably in a burgundy colour
and begin with the word "mymenu2" |
 |
Before each of these lines
there is a comment explaining what changes can be made
- here are some examples: |
 |
Locate mymenu2.maintableprops("#000000",1,1,0)
- changing "#000000" to "#FFFFFF" will change the border
around the top main headings from black to white. "1,1,0"
needn't be changed. |
 |
Locate mymenu2.maincellprops("left","#000000","#000000")
- changing "#000000" to "#FFFFFF" will change the background
colour of the main headings from black to white. "left"
needn't be changed. |
 |
Locate mymenu2.subcellprops("left","#99ccff","#ffffff")
- this is where you can change the background colour of
the drop down cells - here it's set to black. |
 |
Locate
mymenu2.addMenu("sectionone2","<b> Section One </b>")
mymenu2.addMenu("frontpage2","<b> FrontPage </b>")
mymenu2.addMenu("dreamweaver2","<b> Dreamweaver </b>")
mymenu2.addMenu("design2","<b> Design </b>")
This is where you define
the names that appear on the main menu. For simplicity
sake it's a good idea to use the same names ie. instructions2
is the name of the group that drops down from the title
INSTRUCTIONS. We've put 4 headings but you can add more
in the same format or less by deleting the lines
|
 |
That's the first bit done
- you can play around with colours until you get the effect
you want. |
 |
The second part is pretty
simple - scroll right down the page and locate mymenu2.addSubMenu("sectionone2",
"<b> Page One</b>", "sectionone/index.htm")
There are three parts here - Group name that you defined
above "sectionone2" - the
wording you want to appear on the drop down - "<b> Page
One</b>" - and the link "sectionone/index.htm"
- you can also link to another site by using a full URL
- for example "http://www.dreamweaversites.com/". Work
through all the links you want to add and make sure you
keep previewing in a browser to check that everything
is going to plan. |
 |
That's about it - it's
really not as daunting as it may seem. It's a good chance
to get your hands dirty with some coding practice! |
