Menu Crashed - Website down! Please help!


Poster: nwind
Dated: Tuesday July 22 2003 - 18:57:43 BST

I had my menu working fine inspite of my general incompetence with scripts. I tried to add a menu item and the script crashed, I cannot get it back and my companies website is now crippled. The backup won't work either. All I did was modify the menu_array.js, nothing on the webpage itself. Here is the script as modified:

I messed around with this....pretty hard to see the menu when I did get it up given it has a black background and purple words, however, in the code i did this with this line
0, // Right To Left - Used in Hebrew for example. (1=on or 0=off)


I got rid of the zero and just left it blank

then in the section called addmenu......customers the link ,
"Community","show-menu=community","Customer Websites",,0

has a , missing it should end in ,,,0
