Hi,
I've recently changed the look of our website, and am now in the process of changing our online store to the same appearance.
I've amended Act_Primary.html to include all the existing navigation bars and suchlike, with the formatting being handled by external style sheets. In this revised layout, the main navigation is via a series of horizontally-arranged tabs running along the top of the page. The submenus for these sections are a series of vertically-arranged tabs running down the left-hand panel. These tabs are created using tables, with the CSS files providing the formatting information. I want Actinic to use the top level sections defined in the store to create the submenus for the store section of our site.
Each of the links are text, with the colour changing when hovering over them:
In addition to this, when you hover over the table element containing the link, it shows a highlighting .gif image:
Finally, when you're in a section, the corresponding submenu item is highlighted, using the same files to keep things simple:
I've managed to replicate most of this behaviour in the store by changing the html code from ID 1189 to:
However, I've been unable to replicate the highlighting of the submenu item.
What I want to happen is that, for example, when I move into the section "Other media", I want the background graphic on the "Other media" submenu to show (even when browsing through subsections of that section).
From what I've seen, it appears that IDs 1187-1190 are applied to every section link table, and there doesn't seem to be any way of getting Actinic to 'switch this on', and no opportunities to manually apply this background to a table cell in order to make it 'selected'. I couldn't find any reference to this problem on this forum, and there didn't seem to be any clues in the knowledgebase or the AUG.
Are there any ways around this? Or am I missing something?
Any help gratefully received …
