Cs4 vertical drop down menu button malfunctioning

I need some help please. My vertical drop down menu buttons have started to get small when you hover over them. They have been working great for over a year and now have started to do this. I don't know how to help the situation. gobhi.org
thanks!

That's because you have set the font-size to 18% on hover & focus. Change it to 100%.
/* Menu items that have mouse over or focus have a blue background and white text */
ul.MenuBarVertical a:hover, ul.MenuBarVertical a:focus
    color: #FFF;
    font-size: 18%;
    font-size:100%;

Spry Vertical Drop Down Menu- Links Moving about!

Hi Everyone.
I wondered whether anyone might be able to tell me what I am doing wrong?
When I go to create a spry vertical drop down menu using images instead of text as the links - all of my links jump slightly to the right. Or, in the case of sub-menus - slightly down.
I have put together a dodgy example below. I don't understand why it is moving the images around.. What am I doing wrong?
Apart from removing the original text and pressing insert > image object > rollover image - I have not changed any significant settings on the spry menu.
Edit: I have also tried adding "position: absolute;" tags to the spry coding, but it hasn't made any difference.

Please let me know how you can post code?

Simple Drop Down Menu buttons not working

I'm having a bit of trouble getting a button in a hoover over drop down menu to link to another scene in the .swf movie. I just doing a basic drop down menu (example here: http://www.flashkit.com/tutorials/Interactivity/Navigation/Drop_dow-Phlook-951/index.php) with a couple of buttons with in a movie clip, the movie clip being the "button" someone hoovers over. The buttons however are not going to the corrisponding scene I have them set up to. What's strange is that if I set in the buttons action panel to go to an url instead of a scene, in the .swf movie the button works when I click it...it wants to go the specificed url. Nothing happens when it's set to go to a scene. Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks for the reply Ned. The code I'm using on the buttons is the same method I'm using for the regular buttons (i.e. not with in a movie clip).
on (release) {
gotoAndPlay("Scene X", 1);
I like and appreciate the idea on keeping it with in the same timeline, but that didn't work either. This is all very strange, because as I said, the buttons that are not with in a movie clip work with that method in their action panel. And the buttons with in the movie clip work out to an url, just not a scene or frame number.
I'm using CS4, but I'm not sure which 'Publish' settings I should have it at, and on 'Profile' it's set to 'Flash CS3 Settings (it's either that or 'Flash 5 Settings').

Drop down menu buttons not working

hello anyone..
i have buttons on a drop down menu that wont do anything. The
only thing the works so far is the on roll over stage. I am trying
to make the button navigate to a certain frame on the same scene.
The buttons are from my button1_mc.... and the first is affars_btn.
I labeled the instances accordingly and placed the script on the
first frame of the scene (2) which is where the menu and main info
is on. Scene 1 is just the preloader.
button1_mc.affars_btn.onRelease = function() {
gotoAndStop("2", 51);
}

Thanks for the reply Ned. The code I'm using on the buttons is the same method I'm using for the regular buttons (i.e. not with in a movie clip).
on (release) {
gotoAndPlay("Scene X", 1);
I like and appreciate the idea on keeping it with in the same timeline, but that didn't work either.

Animated drop-down menu buttons won't respond onRelease

I created a drop-down menu movie clip. Within it are multiple
buttons which change their alpha values. I'm having an impossible
time of getting the buttons to respond to an onRelease from the
maintimeline.
for instance:
stop();
_root.menu_mc.print_btn.onRelease = function(){
gotoAndStop("print1");
_root.menu_mc.illustration_btn.onRelease = function(){
gotoAndStop("illustration1");
I can't place any code directly on the buttons because later
in the timeline the actionscript needs to change for the same
buttons:
stop();
_root.menu_mc.print_btn.onRelease = function(){
gotoAndStop("print2");
_root.menu_mc.illustration_btn.onRelease = function(){
gotoAndStop("illustration2");
}

i don't think so. Sorry for my ignorance, but the code you
see is basically the only code I have in the movie.
menu_mc is located directly on the maintime line. Inside of
menu_mc are the buttons. If I place a button instance inside of
menu_mc (and there are not multiple instances of it) I can use an
onRelease and it works fine.
I can create an invisible button, place it over the animated
button and get the onRelease to work, however, since the buttons
are rollovers, I loose the animation with the invisible button
covering them up. I can't seem to target multiple instances of the
same button in the movieclip. is there any way around this?

Flash Drop Down Menu Buttons

I was under the impression that Flash allowed one to place
buttons within buttons. Basically I am trying to create a simple
drop down navigation menu. A simple horizontal bar with four
buttons that change color and drop down menus as the viewer scrolls
over the buttons. I would then like the drop down text titles to
change color as the viewer scrolls over the individual items on the
drop down menu. When the viewer clicked on the title ("down"
position) it would once again change color. Thank you.

I ended up doing just what you suggested and everything in
the Universe is back in place.
Thank you.

Setting width of drop-down menu buttons

Hi,
I am creating a site that has two horizontal navigation bars, each of which has several submenus (drop-down menus). You can view the page here.
Most of the main (parent) navigation buttons are of differing widths, for which I had to create different styles. Now I want the drop-down (child) buttons to match the width and positioning of their parent buttons. Do I need to create different styles for each set of drop-downs, and if so, what's the best way to do that?
Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.
Arthur

I think you have some other issues as well - at least in IE8 (see below).
I didn't look into the code you have yet, but there are several sites that offer very nice navigation systems for a pretty reasonable price - may be worth looking into. I'm not promoting any specific ones, but one site that's been heavily recommended within this forum is project seven (http://www.projectseven.com/ ), may be worth exploring as they offer full tech support, and the time saved will likely pay for the cost of the system many times over...
Hope that helps,
Jesse

Drop down menu button will not change color

I have built a 6 button rollover dropdown menu bar in Flash CS4
On five of the dropdown menus I can get the buttons to change color
On the fifth dropdown I can see the button, but when rolled over I can't get the color to change.
I have moved the buttons on the fifth drop down to the first drop down button and they work perfectly.
Is this a bug in Flash CS4 or......
thank you
Sb!

I appreciate your reply but those arrows were not the ones I was trying to describe. In the same box where you would type your web address on the far right is a small star and then next to it an arrow pointing down. If you click on this arrow, it normally drops down a list of the websites you commonly use. Or, if you are on a website ordering something, there might be a similar arrow that you need to select in order to choose which shipping you might want such as ground, next day air, etc., these are the kinds of arrows that are not working correctly now. Any ideas on these? Thanks for trying to help me.

Vertical drop down menu with effects possible?

So I have a newbie question. I am using spry 1.6 in DW CS3
and I need a vertical navigation menu in the left column with
sub-navs that drop down in the same column (not fly out).
Should I use the spry menu or other spry widget to do this?
and can I incorporate a spry effect like slide into the menu?
I am playing around with this but have not found the right
combination yet.

Hi,
if I well understand your request, you should do the
following:
- insert in page a Spry Vertical MenuBar widget
- go in SpryMenuBarVertical.css file to this rule:
ul.MenuBarVertical ul and change the margin property from: margin:
-5% 0 0 95%; TO margin: -5% 0 0 0%;. This will make the submenu to
display right over the items from first level.
If I wrong understood your request please give us a page
where to see what you need and we'll let you know how to achieve
the desired behavior.
Thanks,
Diana

Drop down menu don't work!

Help me please!!!
What is wrong with that AS2 drop down menu (flash8)?
I want to make a button stay in its down state when it's clicked, and I did it for the MC buttons "Objectivity" and "Publications", but not for MC button "Fotography", that trigger the vertical drop down menu. I also want that the MC buttons "Objectivity and "Publications" make the "vertical drop down menu" reverse for it's original state (hide).
P.S. Of course, I want all the MC buttons link to their respective URL's.
Sorry for my english and annoying newbie questions!
Thank you very much!!!
