Template - site_header: The left menu bar Phillip, I'm working on modifying the left menu bar stuff. The default has 3 tables with links. It seems a bit non-trivial to add a 4th table, so I'm trying to extend the top one and place a blank and non-outlined table row between it and the "Main Menu" header row. Where/how does the Storyteller CMS system know to draw an outline around these tables? Thanks, B.
Template - site_header: The left menu bar Here as example the code of the main menu Outline table: Code: <table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="160" bgcolor="#000000" border="0"> <tr> <td> Main table code: Code: <table cellspacing="1" cellpadding="3" width="100%" border="0"> <tr> <td bgcolor="#008000"> <font face="Arial" color="#ffffff" size="2"><b>Main Menu</b></font></td> </tr> <tr> <td bgcolor="#ffffff"><font size="2"> <li><a href="index.php">Home Page</a><br /></li> <li><a href="category.php">News Category</a><br /></li> <li><a href="archive.php">News Archive</a><br /></li> <li><a href="review.php">Reviews</a></li> <li><a href="faq.php">FAQ</a><br /></li> <li><a href="poll.php">Polls</a></li> <li><a href="download.php">Downloads</a></li> <li><a href="glossary.php">Glossary</a></li> <li><a href="link.php">Web Links</a><br /></li> <li><a href="search.php">Search</a></li> <li><a href="ticket.php">Trouble Ticket</a></li> <li><a href="submitstory.php">Submit News</a></li> <li><a href="submitdownload.php">Submit File</a></li> <li><a href="page.php">Pages</a></li> <li><a href="plan.php">Plans</a></li> </font></td> </tr> </table> Closing outline table: Code: </td> </tr> </table>
Template - site_header: The left menu bar Yes, this is exactly the code I've been experimenting with. What puzzles me is that in all of the <table> tags in the template, the border is set as: border="0", and yet I'm seeing a black 1px outline for all the table elements. I don't think you're using CSS to control this behavior, or am I mistaken? I also noticed that the unordered lists don't include a <ul> or </ul> tag - so I'm suspecting that another PHP file is involved to parse site_head.php. Am I on the right track here? What I'm trying to do is have some table rows and cells be rendered without any border. B.
Template - site_header: The left menu bar Basically, there are two tables. The first one is for the outline (see code above). For a main menu without outline: Replace: Code: <table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="160" bgcolor="#000000" border="0"> <tr> <td> <table cellspacing="1" cellpadding="3" width="100%" border="0"> <tr> <td bgcolor="#008000"> <font face="Arial" color="#ffffff" size="2"><b>Main Menu</b></font></td> </tr> <tr> <td bgcolor="#ffffff"><font size="2"> <li><a href="index.php">Home Page</a><br /></li> <li><a href="category.php">News Category</a><br /></li> <li><a href="archive.php">News Archive</a><br /></li> <li><a href="review.php">Reviews</a></li> <li><a href="faq.php">FAQ</a><br /></li> <li><a href="poll.php">Polls</a></li> <li><a href="download.php">Downloads</a></li> <li><a href="glossary.php">Glossary</a></li> <li><a href="link.php">Web Links</a><br /></li> <li><a href="search.php">Search</a></li> <li><a href="ticket.php">Trouble Ticket</a></li> <li><a href="submitstory.php">Submit News</a></li> <li><a href="submitdownload.php">Submit File</a></li> <li><a href="page.php">Pages</a></li> <li><a href="plan.php">Plans</a></li> </font></td> </tr> </table> </td> </tr> </table> with: Code: <table cellspacing="1" cellpadding="3" width="160" border="0"> <tr> <td bgcolor="#008000"> <font face="Arial" color="#ffffff" size="2"><b>Main Menu</b></font></td> </tr> <tr> <td bgcolor="#ffffff"><font size="2"> <li><a href="index.php">Home Page</a><br /></li> <li><a href="category.php">News Category</a><br /></li> <li><a href="archive.php">News Archive</a><br /></li> <li><a href="review.php">Reviews</a></li> <li><a href="faq.php">FAQ</a><br /></li> <li><a href="poll.php">Polls</a></li> <li><a href="download.php">Downloads</a></li> <li><a href="glossary.php">Glossary</a></li> <li><a href="link.php">Web Links</a><br /></li> <li><a href="search.php">Search</a></li> <li><a href="ticket.php">Trouble Ticket</a></li> <li><a href="submitstory.php">Submit News</a></li> <li><a href="submitdownload.php">Submit File</a></li> <li><a href="page.php">Pages</a></li> <li><a href="plan.php">Plans</a></li> </font></td> </tr> </table>
Template - site_header: The left menu bar Ah, I get it - thanks. Is it difficult to add another menu above the existing Main Menu? B.
Template - site_header: The left menu bar No, just copy the new code between Code: <td valign="top" width="100%" bgcolor="#0066ff"> <table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="2" width="100%" border="0"> <tr> <td valign="top" width="160" bgcolor="#0066ff"> and the main menu code
