Need help with advanced navigation menue script...

[matt2112]

Hey there,

I'm in the midst of making a website to help the local music scene in my area and I've run into a problem with the scripting. I can't seem to get the navigation menue to work correctly and I'm having a hell of a time editing it. Could anyone possibly do it for me? You have no idea how much I'd greatly appreciate that. My site's URL is http://www.hostultra.com/~allages/ and you can download the zip file containing all the information for the navi-menue at http://www.hostultra.com/~allages/hvmenue.zip

I'd like for the link categories to be as following...

Home Articles Interact Media Links Site

Have "Home" link to http://www.hostultra.com/~allages/ and leave the others without a link destination.

Now for the sub-links...

Under Articles I want "Interviews"," Editorial", and "Reviews".
Under Interact I want "Forum", :Submit..." and then an additional sub off of Submit for "News", "Show Info", and "Reviews".
Under Media I want "Images" and "Audio".
Under Links I want "Bands" and "Other".
Under Site I want "Contact" and "F.A.Q."

The links for each page are (listed in chronological order):

Home: http://www.hostultra.com/~allages/
Articles>
Interviews: http://www.hostultra.com/~allages/interviews.html
Editorial: http://www.hostultra.com/~allages/editorial.html
Reviews: http://www.hostultra.com/~allages/reviews.html
Interact>
Forum: http://pub84.ezboard.com/ballages97989
Submit...>>(no link for submit, just for the subs below it...)
News: http://www.hostultra.com/~allages/submitnews.html
Show Info: http://www.hostultra.com/~allages/submitshowinfo.html
Reviews: http://www.hostultra.com/~allages/submitreviews.html

F.A.Q.: http://www.hostultra.com/~allages/faq.html

I should let you know up front that I can't pay you for this. In exchange, I can link to your site... host an ad for you site... or anything else you deem fair. I know this is a lot to ask and I honestly don't expect anyone to be willing to do this for me but it'd help me out GREATLY. If you need anymore information or have questions, feel free to email me. flight_of_icarus2112@hotmail.com Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Matt

That's where I got it at. Haha. The problem is that I'm far too retarded/lazy to edit the details myself. :)

My site's almost completed regardless, though.

Send me the code in a zip file to the following address (hull201@hotmail.com).

I have put all the files into a zip file again. Hope this is what you want. :D

You can IM me to tell me the results and we will agree on a linkback. :D

Wow, thanks! I just need a few more minor alterations done to it and I'll stop bugging you, I promise. :) Haha.

Alright, first... I'd like it to be a horizontal menue rather than vertical like it currently is. Second, I need the colors altered to conform around the aesthetics of my site. I attached a .jpeg file of how I'd like it to look.

HEX Codes:
#000080 - blue
#999999 - light gray used for sub catagories.
#222222 - dark gray highlight
#000000 - black, use for trim
#FFFFFF - white

Third, I'm currently having the submit pages under "interact" open up in a new window so is it feasible to have it still do that with the navigation menue? The current script I'm using is:

<a href="submitshowinfo.html" onclick="NewWindow(this.href,'submitshowinfo','375','480','yes','center');return false" onfocus="this.blur()">

I'm also having the forum link open up in a new window as well but in a normal browser window so maybe just add target="new" to the script for that.

I also need another category for "Site" added to the menue, then the subs be "Contact" which links to "contact.html", and F.A.Q. which links to "faq.html". Would it be possible to make it so the menue is no wider than 680 pixels? I plan on putting this in the top table of my site and anything larger than 680 pixels would screw up the dimentions.

But anyways, thanks a lol! Let me know how you want linked back in return for this. We'll work something out that's fair, this is a lot of work to ask from you. lol

There changes made except I cannot make the links open in a new window, sorry. Included the new zip file.

For the linkback how about a banner? IM me with more info.

Cool, it looks really good. One last thing... how do I get it to align in the top row of the table on my site? I inserted the script into it but the navigation menue appears at the top left corner of the site. :(
