How did you get ur columns to look that way? Did you design something in fireworks/photoshop and modified column_left and column_right?

Could you please offer a newbie a little advice.

 

Your install instructions say that we are add <!-- coolMenu //-->

<?php require(DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'coolmenu.php'); ?>

<!-- coolMenu_eof //-->right after the body tag. As I look at these files

I cannot see this area in any file contained in catalog subdirectory

Nice layout, Omen. Can you please tell me how you removed the background box or how you set the position?

I'm having a hard time with it.

 

Thanks.

 

i modified the style attributes to alter it's position, and i designed the columns in an image editing program such as adobe photoshop...

 

i would really like to add a drop shadow to my sub category menu but i dont know how....

Great contribution, we got it work some what after enabling web save URL in the admin. Here's how it looks at this moment when you're on the default page and some non session? pages I believe?

 

http://jdmtuned.net/store/default.php

 

http://jdmtuned.net/store/shipping.php

 

works when you select the manufacturer drop-down menu as well.

 

But when you select an item, go into a subcategory, search result, etc... It does not show the coolmenu at all, it's just blank and shows a page error if you look at the IE details. We've read thru the past posts 3 times and did a search for related tops and haven't come up with anything. Maybe we missed something...?

 

Here's an example of the error pages

 

direct product selected from any page.http://jdmtuned.net/store/product_info.php...roducts_id/1197

 

when we selected a subcategory from any page that has the menu visible.

http://jdmtuned.net/store/default.php/cPath/8_111

 

Any suggestions or insight would be greatly appreciated.

 

Additional info:

Latest snapshot 2.2

contribution was downloaded and added today...

 

Thank you for any help in advance.

Hi, i also have a simaler problem. Just added the contrib but i also get a blank menu. But i also get it on the main page. The only thing that shows up is the background image.

 

It can be seen at http://www.honda-tuning.org/catalog

 

I have compared my output source code to the http://www.geraeteland.de site, and from what i can see it's basicly the same.

 

Running 2.2 and Menu 1.2

 

Any ideas??

I installed the coolMenu contribution and it works awesome except for one thing: the categories infobox now displays the text "coolMenu" instead of "categories".

 

Anyone else run across this or better yet, know how to fix it?

 

Thanks!

In catalog/includes/boxes/coolmenu.php around line 26 change coolmenu to Categories

 

<?php

$info_box_contents = array();

$info_box_contents[] = array('align' => 'left',

'text' => 'Categories'

);

Got it working now after we disabled "websafe URL" in the admin settings. This was the fix for the original problem we had with the coolmenu not working on certain pages. Please see the post of our problem on page 24 of this post for details.

I am having a problem. I followed the directions exactly and have doubled checked them to make sure they are correct. However, once I installed the menu, I get nothing. When I go to my website, I get a blank page. I tried to take the code out of default.php and the page loaded. I am using OSC loaded 5. Please advise. Thanks

Great contribution and lots of useful information from many of you, Thanks!

 

I would like to know how to make the cooMenu "float" above a "dropdown" box in osC. If you follow this link: http://store.pocketpcmall.com/product_info...products_id=208, and use coolMenu, you will notice that coolMenu is "behind" the dropdown box.

 

So, is there a way to change this?

hi

 

I tried to install coolmenu, but when opening my catalog I get the following error:

 

Fatal error: Failed opening required 'includes/coolmenu.php' (include_path='.:/php/includes:/usr/share/php') in /home/virtual/site1/fst/var/www/html/catalog/default.php on line 89

 

What went wrong??

 

this is the part of the 'default.php'-file:

 

require(DIR_WS_LANGUAGES . $language . '/' . FILENAME_DEFAULT);

 

?>

 

<!doctype html public "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">

 

<html <?php echo HTML_PARAMS; ?>>

 

<head>

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript1.2" SRC="includes/menu_animation.js"></SCRIPT>

 

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=<?php echo CHARSET; ?>">

 

<title><?php echo TITLE; ?></title>

 

<base href="<?php echo (($request_type == 'SSL') ? HTTPS_SERVER : HTTP_SERVER) . DIR_WS_CATALOG; ?>">

 

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="stylesheet.css">

 

</head>

 

<body marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" topmargin="0" bottommargin="0" leftmargin="0" rightmargin="0">

 

<!-- coolMenu //-->

<?php require(DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'coolmenu.php'); ?>

<!-- coolMenu_eof //-->

 

<!-- header //-->

<?php require(DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'header.php'); ?>

<!-- header_eof //-->

 

 

 

<!-- body //-->

 

<table border="0" width="750" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="1" align="center">

 

<tr>

 

<td width="<?php echo BOX_WIDTH; ?>" valign="top"><table border="0" width="<?php echo BOX_WIDTH; ?>" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="2">

 

<!-- left_navigation //-->

 

<?php require(DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'column_left.php'); ?>

 

<!-- left_navigation_eof //-->

 

</table></td>

 

<!-- body_text //-->

QuickEnterprises,

I would like to know how you managed to get coolmenu to stay within the infobox on your pages. I have tried the one on page 23 or 24 of this thread but in both IE and Netscape it returns negative locations. :?

 

Thanks.

it is based on the HV Menu Javascript from Dynamic Drive.  

 

Functional in all major DHTML browsers- IE4+, NS4, NS6+, Opera7+  

 

more info on the HV Menu at: http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex1/...vmenu/index.htm  

 

the great contribution from John Guerra (thanks! btw) is available in the contributions section somewhere.  

 

I like the alpha blending (or whatever it's called) effect in the posters version, i wonder if the hv menu script can do this also  

 

Cheers

CoolMenu is awesome, but its 'pagecheck' is not quite right. When the page is scrolled, part of the menu may not be visible on the screen for selection. The HV menu's 'pagecheck' is great which could be seen in action at www.consoleplus.co.uk. Have anyone tried to interface the HV menu to osCommerce such that the menu and submenu items are generated from the categories database instead of manually creating them ?
