Newbie not understanding Spry Menu example

I'm new to the Spry Framework. I understand how tabbed panels works in so far as showing data in different positions on the same page when tabs are selected, but the Spry menu example as far as I can see doesn't do that. As a first step, I want to play with the framework to understand how a href can place content on the same page. I'd greatly appreciate a suggestion to see that working. Thank you.

You've demonstrated (to me) that my expectation of the Spry Menu Bar was misplaced. I assumed that it would function much the same as Tabbed Panels. I expected the Menu Bar to include an example of loading external content into the same page. Not so
FWIW, I've googled quite a bit looking for a plugin that does what I expected from Menu Bar. No luck so far, so I'll probably have to learn and do it myself.
Thanks for the help.

Spry Menu text cannot in one line?

Hi all,
Need your help!
I always have this problem which is when i put the text on the spry menu, then the text like about bonvo / business division tab is on 2 lines in IE and firefox. But in safari, the text is layout so well in one line.
Please refer to this link http://bonvo.com/corporate/index291009.html
I try to change the width in css as in auto, 100% and inherit but no diffence and the best is i use 100%.
Anyone know how to make it nicely fit one line whithout making the font size smaller?
Thanks

First off, I have not seen Spry Menu Bars implemented in quite the way you have done it. Typically, all my menu items are in one set of nested lists. No harm in your method, but it seems a little laborious!
That said, I think the reason your menu items are stacking up on two lines is having to do with the padding. If you change the padding on the list items from 5px all around to 0 5px, zero top and bottom and 5px left and right, you will have given each of them just a little more elbow room and they should not break lines.

Then add the following style rules to your document

Spry menu bar in firefox not telescoping main li horizontally

I am having trouble with my spry menu bar in firefox and chrome not telescoping horizontally. In IE8 they tile horizontally but in firefox(3.6.10) and chrome(6.0.472.63) they stay tiled vertically.
Example:
IE8
[menu1][menu2][menu3][menu4][menu5]
FF and Chrome
[menu1]
[menu2]
[menu3]
[menu4]
[menu5]
I do not think that it is the css due to it not telescoping when I view it in live view in dreamweaver cs4. SO I am thinking it is someting in the javascript that is just for IE.
ANy help or a push in the right direction would be great.

Uhh no, both issues are still occurring. Please look at the site http://appventurousllc.com in
Firefox and IE and you will see that the issues are still present.

Spry Menu not working correctly

Hopefully this is the right part of the forum to post this question, if not, I apologize.
I have created a site in dreamweaver and am using a single Spry Menu Bar. I have read tons of forum postings about Drop down menus not working in IE, however, mine don't work in any browser or in the Live View either. I have a feeling it has something to do with either the div containing the menu bar or the sizing, but I can't tell. Please help.

Any help is appreciated.

You do not have a constructor for the menu bar as in
<script type="text/javascript">
var MenuBar1 = new Spry.Widget.MenuBar("MenuBar1", {imgDown:"SpryAssets/SpryMenuBarDownHover.gif", imgRight:"SpryAssets/SpryMenuBarRightHover.gif"});
</script>
There are too many mistakes in the JS outside of the Spry Menu Bar. Have a look at the following which includes all errors, not just the JS
Validation Output:   117 Errors
Line 21, Column 38: character "&" is the first character of a delimiter but occurred as data var i,x,a=document.MM_sr; for(i=0;a&&i<a.length&&(x=a[i])&&x.oSrc;i++) x.src=… ✉
This message may appear in several cases:
You tried to include the "<" character in your page: you should escape it as "<"
You used an unescaped ampersand "&": this may be valid in some contexts, but it is recommended to use "&", which is always safe.
Another possibility is that you forgot to close quotes in a previous tag.
Line 21, Column 40: cannot generate system identifier for general entity "i" … var i,x,a=document.MM_sr; for(i=0;a&&i<a.length&&(x=a[i])&&x.oSrc;i++) x.src=… ✉
An entity reference was found in the document, but there is no reference by that name defined. Often this is caused by misspelling the reference name, unencoded ampersands, or by leaving off the trailing semicolon (;). The most common cause of this error is unencoded ampersands in URLs as described by the WDG in "Ampersands in URLs".
Entity references start with an ampersand (&) and end with a semicolon (;). If you want to use a literal ampersand in your document you must encode it as "&" (even inside URLs!). Be careful to end entity references with a semicolon or your entity reference may get interpreted in connection with the following text. Also keep in mind that named entity references are case-sensitive; &Aelig; and æ are different characters.
If this error appears in some markup generated by PHP's session handling code, this article has explanations and solutions to your problem.
Note that in most documents, errors related to entity references will trigger up to 5 separate messages from the Validator. Usually these will all disappear when the original problem is fixed.
Line 21, Column 40: general entity "i" not defined and no default entity … var i,x,a=document.MM_sr; for(i=0;a&&i<a.length&&(x=a[i])&&x.oSrc;i++) x.src=… ✉
This is usually a cascading error caused by a an undefined entity reference or use of an unencoded ampersand (&) in an URL or body text. See the previous message for further details.
Line 21, Column 41: reference not terminated by REFC delimiter …var i,x,a=document.MM_sr; for(i=0;a&&i<a.length&&(x=a[i])&&x.oSrc;i++) x.src=x… ✉
If you meant to include an entity that starts with "&", then you should terminate it with ";". Another reason for this error message is that you inadvertently created an entity by failing to escape an "&" character just before this text.
Line 21, Column 41: reference to entity "i" for which no system identifier could be generated …var i,x,a=document.MM_sr; for(i=0;a&&i<a.length&&(x=a[i])&&x.oSrc;i++) x.src=x… ✉

You have used the element named above in your document, but the document type you are using does not define an element of that name. This error is often caused by:
incorrect use of the "Strict" document type with a document that uses frames (e.g. you must use the "Frameset" document type to get the "<frameset>" element),
by using vendor proprietary extensions such as "<spacer>" or "<marquee>" (this is usually fixed by using CSS to achieve the desired effect instead).
by using upper-case tags in XHTML (in XHTML attributes and elements must be all lower-case).
Line 21, Column 51: character "&" is the first character of a delimiter but occurred as data …,x,a=document.MM_sr; for(i=0;a&&i<a.length&&(x=a[i])&&x.oSrc;i++) x.src=x.oSrc; ✉

You have used the element named above in your document, but the document type you are using does not define an element of that name. This error is often caused by:
incorrect use of the "Strict" document type with a document that uses frames (e.g. you must use the "Frameset" document type to get the "<frameset>" element),
by using vendor proprietary extensions such as "<spacer>" or "<marquee>" (this is usually fixed by using CSS to achieve the desired effect instead).
by using upper-case tags in XHTML (in XHTML attributes and elements must be all lower-case).

An entity reference was found in the document, but there is no reference by that name defined. Often this is caused by misspelling the reference name, unencoded ampersands, or by leaving off the trailing semicolon (;). The most common cause of this error is unencoded ampersands in URLs as described by the WDG in "Ampersands in URLs".
Entity references start with an ampersand (&) and end with a semicolon (;). If you want to use a literal ampersand in your document you must encode it as "&" (even inside URLs!). Be careful to end entity references with a semicolon or your entity reference may get interpreted in connection with the following text. Also keep in mind that named entity references are case-sensitive; &Aelig; and æ are different characters.
If this error appears in some markup generated by PHP's session handling code, this article has explanations and solutions to your problem.
Note that in most documents, errors related to entity references will trigger up to 5 separate messages from the Validator. Usually these will all disappear when the original problem is fixed.

Oops - spry menu bar 2.0 does not display correctly when loaded

Oops - obviously I'm new at this. I think I got my graphics loaded now.
Dear Sirs:
I notice bzz31 had a pretty complicated post, so perhaps someone can help me with my complicated problem that has been vexing me for months. I tried the Spry Menu Bar 1.0, but it was impossible for me to edit, and I was delighted to see Spry Menu Bar 2.0 come out. However the 2.0 version has been frustrating me as well.
I can get my menu bar to display properly in Live View, as shown below.
However when I load everything onto the server, the menu bar does not display correctly, as shown below:
I don't quite understand the code "file:///" but I interpret it to mean that the Spry-UI-1.7 folder is in the topmost folder of MacPro5-Docs, which is my hard drive. Here's the code I'm having trouble with:
Here's my computer directory, shown below:
Since my index file is two folders down from Spry-UI-1.7, I loaded the files onto the server similarly, as shown in the next three pictures:
(The picture below is the same as the one just above, but now you can see the path from index to Spry-UI-1.7.)
I would be most appreciative if someone can help me.
Thank you.

Have a look at the following links
<script src="file:///MacProG5-Docs/Spry-UI-1.7/includes/SpryDOMUtils.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="file:///MacProG5-Docs/Spry-UI-1.7/includes/SpryDOMEffects.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

<link href="file:///MacProG5-Docs/Spry-UI-1.7/css/Menu/basic/SpryMenuBasic.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
Each of the above points to a file on your local system and cannot be found by the remote server.
Replace the red coloured parts with http://www.twhsbands.org/ will remedy the situation.
You also have some remnants of the other SpryMenuBar that should be removed from your markup.
Gramps
Wel, so much for the red coloured parts, they did not show up.
The red coloured parts read file:///MacProG5-Docs/

Replicating a gorgeous Spry menu in other pages not working

Hi,
I've created a gorgeous spry menu in one of my pages:
http://agapemedia-international.com/test.html
Works perfectly.
Would like to copy this same menu over to the other pages of the site, so:
1. Copied the css <link href="SpryAssets/SpryMenuBarHorizontal.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" /> into new html file
2. Copied the <script src="SpryAssets/SpryMenuBar.js" type="text/javascript"></script> to the new html file
3. Surrounded all the spry menu - essentially nested <ul>'s - with a div for easy copying
4. Copied the div to the proper location in the new html file.
Here is that new file:
http://agapemedia-international.com/about2.html
Everything looks fine, but when I hover over, no drop downs happen. Oh, and the lovely Spry Menu Bar widget nor the blue tab that calls it up doesn't show up in Dreamweaver editor either. Is there invisible data that doesn't appear in the html code that wasn't copied?
Any brilliant ideas?
Thanks a million!
Peace,
Ben
PS: I'm using Dreamweaver CS3 on a Powerbook G4

I am having a similar problem, but pretty sure it is a newbie issue. I made a menu bar and then wanted to copy it to a second htm page.
I first put the cursor in the div region of the code where I wanted it to go and added a stock spry menu. Then I deleted the div-ul-/div code and pasted the custom menu code in its place. it appears, but does not drop down and lost some of the color attributes. When I place the cursor over it in split mode, I do NOT see the Spry menu bar: assts in the upper left corner of the menu like I see on the index.html page. I'd like to copy the menu from the index.html to multiple subsequent pages. What am I doing wrong? Everything looks identical to me...

History: Dogfish Bay Studios<br>
<center>
<img src="picts/biostudio.jpg" alt="add keywords here"><br>
</center>
</span>
Dogfishbay Studios were started in December of 2008 following a gift of ProTools M-Powered 8 to me from my son, Greg.
Presentient being that he is, he warned his mother that this gift would probably be a very small part of the cost needed to set up the studio.
The studio was set up to provide me and my friends a way to record the songs we’d written, sometimes decades earlier, and to share them with
family and friends. After three years of recording we finally came to a point where we wanted to share the work with a broader audience
and that desire precipitated the need to create a studio name, a website, and a whole new set of skills.
<br><br>
This work reflects the generous collaboration of friends and family. The sale of the music is to support the musicians, the songwriters and
the continued survival of the studio. None of the contributors has been able to forgo the “day job” and all play for the love of it.
We feel blessed by all those who have taken the time to listen to our music and hope, whether you purchase it or not, that it brings to
the listener the kind of pleasure that it has brought to us in the making of it.

Spry Menu bar 2.0 from Widget Browser only works in Firefox, not other browsers

Hello,
I have downloaded and customized the Spry Menu Bar 2.0 from Adobe Widget Browser.
I have made a seemingly functionable horizonatl navigation bar that will be displayed on all of my website's pages.
While in live view in Dreamweaver and when I preview the page in FireFox the entire navigation bar works and displays perfectly.
However, when I preview the page in another browser, like Safari, the navation does not display and shows up as an ordered list. I have tried a couple of fixes with no success. I have also spent some time searching the forums for an asnwer, but more commonly I find that people have problems with the spry menu functioning in Firefox while I have the exact opposite problem.
Please help! I'm to have this website completed by the end of next week!
Thank you!!

Hi John,
Thanks, however, my site is still only on my local computer and not live or on a testing server yet. I could copy and paste my code in, I thought that may be cumbersome, but here goes :

/* Settable values for skinning a Basic menu via presets. If presets are not sufficient, most skinning should be done in
    these rules, with the exception of the images used for down or right pointing arrows, which are in the file SpryMenuBasic.css
     These assume the following widget classes for menu layout (set in a preset)
    .MenuBar - Applies to all menubars - default is horizontal bar, all submenus are vertical - 2nd level subs and beyond are pull-right.
    .MenuBarVertical - vertical main bar; all submenus are pull-right.
    You can also pass in extra classnames to set your desired top level menu bar layout. Normally, these are set by using a preset.
    They only apply to horizontal menu bars:
        MenuBarLeftShrink - The menu bar will be horizontally 'shrinkwrapped' to be just large enough to hold its items, and left aligned
        MenuBarRightShrink - Just like MenuBarLeftShrink, but right aligned
        MenuBarFixedLeft - Fixed at a specified width set in the rule '.MenuBarFixedLeft', and left aligned.
        MenuBarFixedCentered - - Fixed at a specified width set in the rule '.MenuBarFixedCentered',
                        and centered in its parent container.
        MenuBarFullwidth - Grows to fill its parent container width.
    In general, all rules specified in this file are prefixed by #MenuBar so they only apply to instances of the widget inserted along
    with the rules. This permits use of multiple MenuBarBasic widgets on the same page with different layouts. Because of IE6 limitations,
    there are a few rules where this was not possible. Those rules are so noted in comments.

/* IE6 rules - you can delete these if you do not want to support IE6 */
/* A note about multiple classes in IE6.
* Some of the rules above use multiple class names on an element for selection, such as "hover" (MenuItemHover) and "has a subMenu" (MenuItemWithSubMenu),
* giving the selector '.MenuItemWithSubMenu.MenuItemHover'.
* Unfortunately IE6 does not support using mutiple classnames in a selector for an element. For a selector such as '.foo.bar.baz', IE6 ignores
* all but the final classname (here, '.baz'), and sets the specificity accordingly, counting just one of those classs as significant. To get around this
* problem, we use the plugin in SpryMenuBarIEWorkaroundsPlugin.js to generate compound classnames for IE6, such as 'MenuItemWithSubMenuHover'.
* Since there are a lot of these needed, the plugin does not generate the extra classes for modern browsers, and we use the CSS2 style mutltiple class
* syntax for that. Since IE6 both applies rules where
* it should not, and gets the specificity wrong too, we have to order rules carefully, so the rule misapplied in IE6 can be overridden.
* So, we put the multiple class rule first. IE6 will mistakenly apply this rule. We follow this with the single-class rule that it would
* mistakenly override, making sure the misinterpreted IE6 specificity is the same as the single-class selector, so the latter wins.
* We then create a copy of the multiple class rule, adding a '.SpryIsIE6' class as context, and making sure the specificity for
* the selector is high enough to beat the single-class rule in the "both classes match" case. We place the IE6 rule at the end of the
* css style block to make it easy to delete if you want to drop IE6 support.
* If you decide you do not need IE6 support, you can get rid of these, as well as the inclusion of the SpryMenuBarIEWorkaroundsPlugin.js script.
* The 'SpryIsIE6' class is placed on the HTML element by the script in SpryMenuBarIEWorkaroundsPlugin.js if the browser is Internet Explorer 6. This avoids the necessity of IE conditional comments for these rules.

     Directed by Rainer Beckmann, the Pennsylvania Academy of Music's Early Music Program provides opportunities for students to learn more about historical performance practice. The program's current activities focus on the school's Early Music Ensemble, made up of enthusiastic amateur musicians performing on recorders and violas da gamba. The recent donation of a two-manual harpsichord will allow the program to include special Baroque ensemble lessons in the near future. In addition, individual Academy students will have the possibility to be accompanied on an instrument regularly used in music of the 17th and 18th centuries. The class meets 1 hour per week.

Effects not appearing in Dreamweaver Spry menu

Hi Folks,
I've installed the Spry updater in Dreamweaver CS3 then used
it to update the Spry assets. I selected all assets, including
effects. All were updated (some added for the first time) except
for effects. It does not appear in the Spry menu at all. Does
anybody know why effects might not be available on the Spry menu in
Dreamweaver even after being selected for update?

Hope this helps.

Ah ha! That's it. (I can see why they belong there, of
course, but I sure didn't think to look there.
In case any other newbies are in the same boat, you not only
have to select Windows/Behaviors, which will bring up the Behavior
panel, you then need to select an element (like a div) to which you
want to apply the effect, click on the plus sign in the behaviors
panel, then select Effects from the list.
Thanks for the help, Don.

Thanks a lot for that tip. It does improve it by a whole lot.. i c what my mistake was.. however, something is still off
.. The Drop down menu is not behaving well...
As you may c by the picture, the drop down menu now moves to the right. and is not because of the object to its left, i've modified that. Zinger Products Drop Down Menu also does the same.

Question: My spry menu bar is not displaying correctly in Dreamweaver

Hello,
I am new to Dreamweaver CS5, so coding isn't my area of expertise. My problem with my spry menu bar is that it does not display the tabs on the menu bar correctly. When I try to apply new changes to the CSS of the horizontal menu bar, half of the tabs will change and the other half will not. Also, I am unable to drag and move the menu bar itself around, a function that I was once able to do before. At times, only one tab of the menu bar will display itself, without any of the other tabs as well.
I have a hunch that my problems stem from some coding errors in the SpryMenuBarHorizontal.css, and possibly in the SpryMenuBar.js. On the CSS Styles panel, my SpryMenuBarHorizontal.CSS list reads as follows:
I also have a hunch that something about this line-up is also incorrect, but I don't exactly know what the problem is.
Here is what my coding for my SpryMenuBarHorizontal.css looks like right now:

SpryMenuBar.js
This file handles the JavaScript for Spry Menu Bar. You should have no need
to edit this file. Some highlights of the MenuBar object is that timers are
used to keep submenus from showing up until the user has hovered over the parent
menu item for some time, as well as a timer for when they leave a submenu to keep
showing that submenu until the timer fires.

If anyone could possibly steer me on the right direction with this, I'd be very grateful! I've been struggling with this for about a month now and I feel like I may have only made the situation worse.
I'm not sure if I have to keep making a new spry assets folder in my website or not or if I have to drag and drop the spry assets into the root folder. I have restarted my website over at least a dozen times by now. I have tried changing folders, dragging and dropping various spry assets folders everywhere and I have also uninstalled and reinstalled my copy of Dreamweaver CS5 in the hopes of getting my spry horizontal menu bar to act normal. I am completely new at Dreamweaver and I really, really need some help with this.
Thanks!

I haven't been able to get my site posted up yet. Here is a link to it anyway:andrearosales.com
I will be working on connecting my files up to my server. At the moment, here are some screen shots of some messages that I am getting when I am saving my file.
I'm not sure what to make of these messages. I tried to put a new spry horizontal menu bar on my main page, and when it appeared, it displayed as a spry vertical menu bar.
Here is a picture of what it looks like:
I"m going to refer to the links that were suggested to me though. I'm not sure if pictures of the code will help to solve my problem. I'm going to try again to connect my files to my server though.

Spry Menu Bar Horiz -- another not rendering in IE8

please believe me that i've searched without success in finding a resolution for this problem.
for Right-Aligned Spry Horizontal Menu bar, IE8 incorrectly renders it on the left after prompting for running scripts or ActiveX controls.
here's the css file: THE ONLY THING CHANGED WAS THE FLOAT DIRECTION in ul.MenuBarHorizontal li (left to right)
.... so what am i missing in getting a horizontal spry menu on the right side of page?

    <h2>Layout</h2>
    <p>Since this is a one-column layout, the .content is not floated. </p>
    <h3>Logo Replacement</h3>
    <p>An image placeholder was used in this layout in the .header where you'll likely want to place a logo. It is recommended that you remove the placeholder and replace it with your own linked logo. </p>
    <p> Be aware that if you use the Property inspector to navigate to your logo image using the SRC field (instead of removing and replacing the placeholder), you should remove the inline background and display properties. These inline styles are only used to make the logo placeholder show up in browsers for demonstration purposes. </p>
    <p>To remove the inline styles, make sure your CSS Styles panel is set to Current. Select the image, and in the Properties pane of the CSS Styles panel, right click and delete the display and background properties. (Of course, you can always go directly into the code and delete the inline styles from the image or placeholder there.)</p>

please believe me that i've searched without success in finding a resolution for this problem.
for Right-Aligned Spry Horizontal Menu bar, IE8 incorrectly renders it on the left after prompting for running scripts or ActiveX controls.
here's the css file: THE ONLY THING CHANGED WAS THE FLOAT DIRECTION in ul.MenuBarHorizontal li (left to right)
.... so what am i missing in getting a horizontal spry menu on the right side of page?
When you right float the container (LI) for each menu item, some browsers will do exactly that, float the first menu item to the right, place the second menu item left to that and so forth. Other browsers (IE) will not react to a right float of the container (LI).
The only way to right float the complete menubar is to use the complete container (UL). As with any float, the width has to be specified.
Hence in your case,
change ul.MenuBarHorizontal li back to left float
add a width (32em) and a right float to ul.MenuBarHorizontal

Spry menu bar not visible in live view

Hi everyone,
I was just working on the css for my spry menu bar and went to check it out in the live view, but it is no longer visible. I checked it out in Safari and Firefox to no avail. It looks totally fine in the design view in Dreamweaver. I'm new to web design and I have no idea what I did, but I'm really hoping someone here does! Below is the CSS.

My guess is that you have a dark background in which case the menu items will not be seen.
I suggest you have a look here first http://www.dwcourse.com/dreamweaver/ten-commandments-spry-menubars.php#one, then resurrect the original SpryMenuBarVertical.css and change as required.

Spry Menu Bar is not doing what I want it to do

I am attempting to work with the Spry Menu Bar, which was starting to work, but then I made the mistake of trying to resize it using the resize handles around the menu. And now I can't figure out how to get it back to the right size. I've tried undoing and looking through the code, which is NOT my forte, but I can't find any clues as to how change the size. And it will not display any menu other than the very first one, even though the whole menu bar is spanning the page, with plenty of room to display all 4. What is going on??

First of all, are you aware that Spry is a dead technology and the code you're wrestling with is over 7 years old and will not work with mobile touchscreen devices (essential in today's web world)?
Even though it's included in older versions of Dreamweaver, Adobe formally abandoned Spry last year
http://blogs.adobe.com/dreamweaver/2012/08/update-on-adobe-spry-framework-availability.htm l'
Point being, few people will advise you to continue along this Spry path.
You're better off investing your energy in a modern up-to-date menu system.

Spry Menu Bar link colors not consistent

I have a horizontal Spry menu bar set up with 4 items in it.
The first item is the Home link and does not have a submenu, but
the other 3 items do. What I want is when you roll over the main 4
items the text link color will be purple (#583399). When an item
has a submenu the rollover text link on the submenu links will be
green (#89b11a).
My current code almost works, but the problem I am having is
that the Home link
without the submenu changes to a green color instead of
purple like the other 3 main links. If I add a test submenu to the
Home link then it turns purple like the other links. How can I get
the Home link to change to purple like the others without having a
submenu attached to it?
Here is my html code that refers to the menu:
<ul id="MenuBar1" class="MenuBarHorizontal">
<li><a href="index.html"
class="MenuBarItemSubmenu">HOME</a></li>
<li><a href="about.html"
class="MenuBarItemSubmenu">ABOUT</a>
<ul>
<li><a
href="services.html">services</a></li>
<li><a
href="bios.html">bios</a></li>
<li><a
href="news.html">news</a></li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><a href="work.html" class="MenuBarItemSubmenu"
>WORK</a>

</li>
<li><a href="contact.html"

<li><a
href="location.html">location</a></li>
<li><a
href="opportunities.html">opportunities</a></li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
Here is the Spry CSS code that pertains to the links:
/* Menu items are a light gray text with padding and no text
decoration */
ul.MenuBarHorizontal a
display: block;
cursor: pointer;
padding: 0.5em 0.75em;
color: #666666;
text-decoration: none;
font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
/* Menu items that have mouse over or focus have green text
ul.MenuBarHorizontal a:hover, ul.MenuBarHorizontal a:focus
color: #89b11a;
/* Menu items that are open with submenus are set to
MenuBarItemHover with purple text */
ul.MenuBarHorizontal a.MenuBarItemHover,
color: #583399;
/* Menu items that are open with submenus are set to
MenuBarItemHover with purple text */
ul.MenuBarHorizontal a.MenuBarItemSubmenuHover,
ul.MenuBarHorizontal a.MenuBarSubmenuVisible
color: #583399;
And
here
is a link to my test file so you can see what I am talking
about.
Thanks for any help and let me know if you need anything else
to help with it.

Anyone??
