subimage URL not working

I used the exact code for the Multi Tab menu. Everything looks right. No matter what I do though, the subimage gives me the 'red-X-of-doom' whenever I preview my webpage; even if I use the original code and image that I downloaded. Anyone know what to do?

Hi,

We need to see the page so we can see what's happening. I would surmise that the path to the image is incorrect.

Here ya go: http://www.drroberts.com/indexexample.html

The subimage should show up under the 'Other Services' menu.

I'm only playing around with menu styles right now. But the darn subimage just won't show up.

Hi,

I'm not exactly sure why it's not showing. I find it where it says it is. I can make some suggestions:

1. put in the full path to the image and see if that works.

2. put the call for the subimage in the item and see if that works


3. put that subimage in the menuimages folder with the other menu images and then code the sub menu style

I have to believe that somehow it's a path issue. Maybe it needs a beginning slash? /images/sub_arrow.gif

1. Didn't work

2. Didn't work

3. Didn't work

Beginning slash... didn't work.

I may have to use a different file format? It works with the other images as gifs but maybe it will take a jpg too? I wonder if anyone alse has this problem with the image? I may have to use a different menu. I'll continue my quest at figuring this one out. I'm stumped.

Hi,

That almost sounds like the menu thinks the image is corrupted or something, I have no clue.

But, I forgot one option to try. Put the darned thing in the same folder as the menu_data.js file and just code the image name in the subimage=

One thing that will do is figure out if there's something possibly wrong with that image, since it will now be in the same exact folder as the data file.

Same problem - sub image arrow isn't showing up

I was going to say that this was my first time installing the menu where I didn't have to beat my head against the wall.... but then came the problem with the subimage
Its the same problem as tear_faerie and the Drroberts.com site on http:almi.tc/test.htm
I've tried refomatting the image, using / for the path, not using / for the path, adding the image to the menu item, nada, nothing works.

Anyone have some great idea for us?

Hi,

It may be doing the same thing as those you mention, but it might not be the same reason, so we need your site to see what's up.

That's very strange - seems to work fine with the menu code from our website.

Can you please download the menu again and upgrade the code file (milonic_src.js and mmenudom.js) I'm guessing they may have become corrupt.
