I need to edit my main menu data but it appears to have disappeared from the menu_data.js file? both locally and remotely...how is this possible since the menu appears fine in the browser? All I see in my menu_data.js file are the secondary menus...

Main menu

Hi

as your menu is placed in a table, the main menu is embedded further down in the html file. In the menu_data.js there are the subs only, the styles and the global definitions.
Further down (html) you can see the main menu

with


1. When it is in a table, I think the top= and left= properties are not useful.
2. Put the code without the script tags into a separate file, call it e.g. embedded_main.js
3. Leave the script tags in the html file, insert the js filename between these tags, so it will read as follows:

<SCRIPT TYPE="text/javascript" src ="embedded_main.js"></SCRIPT>

Now you can edit, whatever is necessary, the main menu file or the submenus in their relevant file.

Thanks Michael, had forgotten I'd embedded the main menu in my table....so I opted just to edit it from my html template....I did try what you suggested but it didn't seem to work. Just FYI, the link you sent me went to an error page...

Thanks

Hi

Sorry, there was a mistake, the link is revised.
But what I had described is ok, should work.
The js file, in this case of course has to be stored in the same directory as the html file, or if not, the path has to be set.
src ="whateverpath/embedded_main.js"


You are at Version 5.735 !!!! The actual one is 39, pre release 40 !!
