Spry Menu question #2: colors
Hi again...
I can't seem to get any settings to change colors to a Spry
menu to anything other than the text.
Even though the changes show in the CSS pallette, nothing
changes the colors of the menu itself when viewed.
Any thoughts?
thx
Andrew
Have you read the comments within the css file - if you go
through it
carefully, it explains (not clearly enough in my opinion),
what each rule
does and what effect it has on the menu.

Hi
I just need to know how to change the height of my spry menu.
i did it once before but forgot how to. i think i've tried height
on every SpryMenuBarHorizontal.css that is there there...
ThanksGreat thank you very much, added the code and its working
now...
Just one more question, hope this makes sense: I want to put
the menu along a line that is the same color as the menu so i put
to menu into a table and used a color background, is this the best
way to do it? The problem i am having is that the table has this
padding that i can't get rid of, i want it the same size as the
menu, but i can make the table any smaller...
Appreciate the help -
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>
<ul>
<li><a href="design.html">design</a>
</li>
<li><a
href="advertising.html">advertising</a></li>
<li><a href="casestudies.html">case
studies</a></li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><a href="contact.html"
class="MenuBarItemSubmenu">CONTACT</a>
<ul>
<li><a href="#">.</a></li>
<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??

Hello....I've created a horizontal spry menu which seemed to
work fine until I saw it in an older version of Windows at a
friend's house. In that instance, the default link color of the
page, which is blue, crept into the spry menu link colors which are
white. The "visited" links in the spry menu are showing up blue.Is
there a way to define the visited/hover colors etc...in the spry
menu so it allstays white? This is the spry code I have now...

All the other colors can be controlled by what is defined in David

The problem that I have not been able to resolve is IE6 picks
up the colors, fonts, underline from a:active or the

Dreamweaver "SPRY" Menu - Question on editing the CSS?
Hi, I am using the "SPRY" menu in DW CS4
In the CSS Styles panel there are a lot of "ul" (unordered lists) and "li" (lists) but I am unsure which ones to edit to get the changes I need below. If someone could give me some direction I would be very thankful.
Here is the link to the website with the menu. http://www3.telus.net/~jessum/#
How Do I ...
1.Center the menu horizontally?
2. Change the font style to a sans serif font?
3. Move the menu's to the right so they're centered in the button?
4. Add a different colored background images that will tile the width of the buttons?
5. Change the width of the buttons?
6. Add some "blank" buttons or empty spacers to the left and right of the menu buttons to fill up the with of the menu bar?Customizing Spry Menu Bar

Aloha,
I have the menu configured that way i want it, but for the life of me I cant figure out how to do the following.
I have a menu home, about, contact etc......... The menu bar has two background images, one when you load the page and then the mouse over image. What i want to do is when your on the index.html page , the Menu link will be lite up in my case (blue) and then if you go off of that page the blue will go to the current page that is up on your screen.
I am not great with code, I have spent a few hours tring to figure it out, i have no idea if it can do that or not, but its prob super easy, I just dont know what setting i am looking for.
2ns Question.. Is there a way to make the Spry menu to look like this? HOME | ABOUT | ETC
Right now i dont have the | in there, not sure if its possable
Aloha!Thank you for posting your URL, this should be done as a matter of course.
You do need to have SpryDOMUtils.js uploaded to your SpryAssets folder for the script to work.
The following explains the working of the script
function InitPage(){
Spry.$$('#MenuBar1 li').forEach(function(node){ // check each li within a region with an ID of MenuBar1
var a=node.getElementsByTagName("a")[0]; // finds all a elements inside the li, but we only want the first so [0]
if(a.href == window.location){ // if the href is the same as the current window location e.g. index.html
Spry.Utils.addClassName(node,"activeMenuItem"); // add a class called activeMenuItem
As soon as a class is added, CSS will take care of the styling. In the case that I have suggested, the CSS merely changes the background colour. This could just as happily be a background image.
If you want a different image for each menu item, then assign a class to the menu item as in
<li><a href="index.html">Home</a></li>
<li><a href="home-services.html" class="red">Home Services</a></li>
<li><a href="business-services.html">Business Services</a></li>
<li><a href="web-hosting.html">Web Hosting</a></li>
<li><a href="online-backup.html">Online Backup</a></li>
<li><a href="about-us.html">About Us</a></li>
<li><a href="contact.html">Contact Us</a></li>
The style rule could then be
.red .activeMenuItem { background: url(home-button.png); }
Cheers,

I am having CSS issues trying to center a basic horizontal spry menu inside a div tag.
To keep it simple:
I have a 990px wide x 40px high Div Tag for my mainNav menu.
I created a quick horizontal menu using the spry widget... with 7 boxes.
The menu of 7 boxes is currently left justified within the Div. I want it to auto center within the Div. I have tried changing almost every pre-CSS ID in the Spry horizontal menu using AUTO margins for the left and right and I can't get any of them to center then entire menu within the overall Div Tag.
Please help.
ul.MenuBarHorizontal.li is floated left so the boxes are side by side... but no matter which CSS ID I change the margins to auto on left and right nothing seems to work.
Do I need to create a new CSS rule targeting something different to get the entire menu to center properly?
Thanks for the help
TimAlter the spry css. If you declare a width of 700px and set margin: 0 auto; (as shown below) then each of your 7 links will be 100px wide and you'll have 145px either side. 990px - 700px = 290px /2 = 145px.
ul.MenuBarHorizontal
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
list-style-type: none;
font-size: 100%;
cursor: default;
width: 700px;
margin: 0 auto;
Updated: You should also set the below selector to 100px (or whatever you require. But obviously make sure the total width of all the links adds up to the width you set the above css selector to. In this case 700px). This determines the width of your links.
ul.MenuBarHorizontal li
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
list-style-type: none;
font-size: 100%;
position: relative;
text-align: left;
cursor: pointer;
width: 100px;
float: left; -

But if I remove it, it dosent work correct.
I have removed:
background-color: #3a90cb; (in ul.MenuBarHorizontal a)

I want to remove the background color to be able to see the
design behind (with gradient) instead of one color
Hope you can help me
Best Regards
Kim1: The drop down menu/submenu now has a white background, and
cant figure out where to change that
2: Between submenu 1 and submenu 2 on each headmenu, the word

Spry menu bar cyan-colored controller non-responsive
The cyan-colored controller that enables users in CS4 to configure spry tabs has suddenly stopped working, evidently after I made a change in width setting for spry tabs. The controller no longer works in the site in which I first experienced the problem and,for that matter, in another new site I made for testing purposes.
Is there a fix for this? Would re-installing Dreamweaver C4 fix this?
Thanks for your help. I attach a file showing the cyan-colored tab to which I am referring.
Professor BobBob,
I don't have answer for you because I don't use the spry menus and haven't seen this problem on the occasions I have experimented with it.
If you don't receive an answer here, you may want to visit the forum dedicated to the Spry Objects: Spry forum

Multiple text colors in my spry menu
Can I make multiple text colors in my spry menu? I want to match the text color on one of my spry menu items to the hover color so that you know which link you are currently visiting. I haven't posted the site yet until I work out all the kinks. So, to summarize, I have my spry menu link text color (ul.MenuBarVertical a) set to #E00 and my hover color for those items (ul.MenuBarVertical a.MenuBarItemHover) set to #888. All of the links also contain the same spry menu. I would like the link you're currently in to be #888 and the other links to be #E00 with all of them hovering with color #888. How can I give unique color to an individual menu item? Any help you can give is much appreciated!

Hello all,
I am using Spry Menu Bars for the first time and have checked
out most of the online documentation. I have gone into the CSS file
to customize much of the look of my first menu.
I would like to do the following, but can't seem to find
where to do it:
1. Change the height (not width) of my top menu item -- it
has created some unwanted padding.
2. Change the width of my submenu independently of the top
menu item -- to allow for longer text.
3. Change the submenu text color and size independently of
the top menu item text.
Here is a link to my sample navigation bar (only the first
item "Latest News" has a menu):
http://stage.ecdi.com/includes/nav_bar.html
Sorry for the extent of my request, but I have gotten
blurry-eyed looking for posted material that answers my inquiry.
You guys are the best...
MattThe reason you don't see a lot here in this forum is because
Adobe created a Spry forum. The first thing I would recommend doing
is updating Spry if you have not done so before:
http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/spry/
Then you can head over to the Spry forums here:
http://www.adobe.com/go/labs_spry_pr1_forum
To answer your question though, everything you want to edit
is in the CSS document in the SpryAssets folder. All of the
attributes are defined in there. -
How can I add more than one same spry menu (eg. collapsible menu) with in different styles (font size, color, background, etc) on current page?

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:

And here is what my SpryMenuBar.js coding looks like right now too:
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 Colors and Pictures in Dreamweaver
I'm having some trouble changing the color of the spry menu
bars that I created in Dreamweaver. Whenever I preview them in a
browser they show up as grey with black text. What I want them to
show up as is blue with white text before the mouse goes over them
and highlights them. When the mouse goes over them I want them to
still be blue with white text and also my drop down menu options as
well.
What would be the fastest and easiest way to do this and if
there is what css code is required for me to change? I'm unfamiliar
with how css code works.
I'm also having some problems with copying and pasting
pictures and editing them too. what software can i download that is
free that i can use to edit my pictures.
I have the trial version mind you and I'm trying to get this
finished as fast as I can.> What would be the fastest and easiest way to do this and

Bring up your page and adjust the CSS in the
SpryMenuHorizontal.css or
SpryMenuVertical.css page that is attached. All the color
values are in
there.
>I'm unfamiliar with how css code works.
You need to change this. Without a thorough working knowledge
of HTML and
CSS (at the very least), you will never have great success in
either
Dreamweaver or web design. I first learned web design using
Notepad, typing
every single tag, and I am soo grateful now that I had that
solid coding
experience .. without it, this program would be very hard to
master.

Free? I'm not sure any more .. you can use either the 30 day
trial of
Fireworks or Photoshop (Fireworks would probably be easier to
pick up) but
if you're going to do a lot of this, you need to get some
good tools and
learn them well.
