ravencallscrowsWheee! I've finally come up with something that'll work for navigation on the website. Thanks to Gwynn for recommending it and Lauren for her tips on working with the script.
Still going to change a few things- the colour scheme on the menus is going to change from what it is now, but unless it's really badly broken somewhere, i think i'm going to stick with it.
If anyone wants to take a look, it's at http://www.avarielelf.com/development/aemenu2.html.
All the links are going to lead to the old, ugly, clunky yet functional table based system, so don't follow the navigation quite yet. Next step will be converting the menu, now that it's essentially working into a server-side include so that updates will be adding whatever the appropriate new content is and making a change in the include file to point to the stuff which has been added, rather than doing the change in each page of the site's navigation separately. Hey- what can i say? I'm lazy.

Date: 2002-04-12 06:08 am (UTC)Only two things you might want to know...
In Netscape 4.7x your navigational elements appear as broken graphics. It's doing that because you don't have your online path defined correctly in the script. Apparently only older versions of NS care about this. Obviously it's not a top priority, but it's easy as pie to fix.
... okay, I looked at your code and I can't actually find the place where your online path lives. (It should look something like: oCMenu.onlineRoot="/") Usually it's at the top of the menu creation code. If you stowed it away somewhere, you'll probably know where it is. If you don't have it at all... then I'm again somewhat confused.
In IE (Mac) the title graphic and your text are doing some psychotic overlapping for me. Screenshot here. I don't know why. It's truly a weird phenomenon. And it only does it on this page, not your normal non-dev pages.
Anyway, it's looking great. and I'm jealous of how quickly you got it working. I'm sorry to be the bearer of any bad news, even if it's small - I'd say that you could kick my ass, but then given that your one of "those bondage people" too, you might like it too much... ;)

Would you want to kill me if I told you that i just didn't muck with it and the IE onMouseOff equivalent event is just working properly on its own?
I think I know what the problem is with the online path is. I'm in the habit of defining hyperlinks as /filename.ext, so when defining that path, i left it at http://www.avarielelf.com, which apparently the script isn't liking very much. I'll try terminating the path definition with the / and taking it off of the link.
