Copy an existing one and then rewrite your custom one into it is probably your easiest method. Do this in the design library.

In the list layout setting i have put in the code

overall design start of list i have my code
<span class="text_heading_left_column">Product Sections</span>
<div class="solid_line_blue"><img src="theme_shim.gif" height="1" width="1" alt=" " /></div>
<div class="buttonscontainer">

end of list i have my code
</div></div><div class="solid_line_blue"><img src="theme_shim.gif" height="1" width="1" alt=" " /></div>

what do i have to put into to edit rows and columns????

the html needs just this
<a href="">a link here</a>

I'm not sure what you need to put in Mark as I have no idea on your aim or what you are trying to do. Why not open up an existing actinic option and get your head round that first. List layouts are used in a number of places, they set the html that you want around each of the items in the list that it needs to layout. Product list layouts for example set the <tr> and <td> around each item, a nav list layout would do the <li></li> part usually. There is nothing that has to go in these mandatory, just correct html that's all.

what i have done is this:

In the advanced guide i did this Highlighting the 'Current' Section in the Section List

In this code it has the option <span style="background-color: green;">

However when the link is active it just covers the text not the hole block this is what i am trying to do so when active it fills the space up not just the text

I am using Top level section list with horizontal dividers

That's a html coding issue Mark, not Actinic, the anchor tag needs to be changed to a block level element so that not just the actual text is handled by the style.

If you know any html or css, code your own, the actinic code in places is truly shocking. I mean 1px shims, they're enough to make a grown man cry.
