Spry Menubar background color help?

How does one go about making the background color of your submenus different from the main menu bar?
Here's a site I have found with basically the submenu I want, notice the submenus have a background color and the menubar has a background image.

Thank you!

Have a look at the following where I have used an untouched SpryMenuBarHorizontal.css

  • SPRY submenu text color help needed.

    I've created a vertical SPRY menu bar over a dark background
    image in a left sidebar. The text is white and the background is
    set to none (transparent).
    When the submenu opens to the right it's on a white
    background (over the main content area). Because the text is set to
    white, you cannot see the submenu links.
    Is there a way to change only the submenu links to black? I'd
    also like to change the background color of the submenu links.
    Thanks in advance for your assistance.

    http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/spry/home.html
    - This first link is the Spry home page. There you will find an
    updater to Spry that if you have not downloaded up to this point,
    you should I will explain why shortly. Inside the package you will
    find a ton of samples and an Extension. Install the Extension and
    restart DW. Then under the Sites menu you will see a new option to
    update your Spry. Run that updater.
    http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/spry/samples/menubar/MenuBarSample.html
    - This page will show you how to make the necessary customizations.
    The last two examples will help you out. All you will need to do is
    read through the source code of the document. There is no need to
    read through the source of the CSS file because they show you the
    changed CSS on that page. Just apply those changes to your CSS
    SpryMenuBarVertical.css document where the tag matches. If there is
    no matching tag you will need to just copy and paste the entire
    portion but I don't think that is the case with your menu. Also
    your entries will be Menubar 8 & 9 in the source code, but to
    find the matching code in your css document just replace the
    MenuBar8 or 9 with MenuBarVertical.
    If you have not done a lot of work with CSS before I would
    highly recommend reading this tutorial before going through any of
    the above steps:

  • Spry Menubar-background problem

    Hi,
    I have tried to search for this problem, and though I have
    found others with the same problem, there have been no answers
    (probably so obvious I missed it and they figured it out.) And I
    did update the Spry Menubar to the latest version.
    The Spry Horizontal menubar works fine on Firefox, but on IE
    7 the background is white as well as the submenus, not the intent.
    The alignment and size is fine, just the designed background colors
    don't work (on the menu itself, I want a transparent background, on
    the submenus it is #777079.)

    Hi,
    Just found the problem for anyone that is having the same
    thing happen. It is the hack at the bottom of
    "SpryMenuBarHorizontal.css":
    BROWSER HACKS: the hacks below should not be changed unless
    you are an expert
    /* HACK FOR IE: to make sure the sub menus show above form
    controls, we underlay each submenu with an iframe */
    ul.MenuBarHorizontal iframe
    position: absolute;
    z-index: 1010;
    filter:alpha(opacity:0.1);
    /* HACK FOR IE: to stabilize appearance of menu items; the
    slash in float is to keep IE 5.0 from parsing */
    @media screen, projection
    ul.MenuBarHorizontal li.MenuBarItemIE
    display: inline;
    f\loat: left;
    background: fff;
    Where it says: "background:fff;" change it to whatever you
    need, in my case, "background: transparent;"
    Voila!!

  • Spry menu Background color IE

    The background color of one of my menu items (the only one which includes a submenu) appears as white instead of blue in Internet Explorer 8.0
    Any tips on how to correc this? I'm using Spry 1.6 - maybe I should download the Spry 2.0 Widget? If I do that, do I have to recreate the entire menu?

  • Change spry submenu background color only?

    Is there a way to change the background or background color
    on the spry horizontal or vertical menus without changing the main
    menus?

    Also, whether you are using a vertical or horizontal menu you
    can find the necessary tag within CSS. Adobe as done a fairly good
    job on commenting exactly what is going on.
    I worked on a project for Alabama Marriage & Family using
    horizontal menus. You can take a look at my navigation and see how
    I structured my CSS. Each sub-menu actually has different CSS
    properties so it made it a little more difficult.

  • Change background color during text edit mode

    THis is a wacky problem...
    I have a presentation template. The slide master has white copy in the title and black copy in the body/bulleted list.
    When I try to use the template and edit the title copy, the background color for editing that line is white, just like the text, so I can't see what I'm typing. I can't figure out how to change the background color during text edit mode so that I can actually see what I'm typing. Is there a way to make this transparent?
    For some reason, the body copy edit works fine: black text edited in either a white or transparent background color.

  • Spry MenuBar Test in IE (background color check)

    This is a part two to a previous post. I have a Spry menu bar in my clients app and right now my issue is that the menu bar when you rollover over to view the drop down (in this case a drop up since the menu is above the main menu) should display a menu with a background color of #887242 which in Firefox and Safari it does, but in IE (any version) it instead inherits the color of the main nav bar which is #483828. Originally the background was all white in IE and then I went to the CSS and found this:
    @media screen, projection
        ul.MenuBarHorizontal li.MenuBarItemIE
        display: inline;
        f\loat: left;
        background-color: #FFF;
    So I changed #FFF to #483828 and that took care of the menu bar but applied the color to both the menu bar and drop down. I want the drop down to be a different background color as mentioned previously so after a little looking around I'm trying this:
    @media screen, projection
        ul.MenuBarHorizontal ul
        display: inline;
        f\loat: left;
        background-color: #887242;
    underneath that. Since I'm on Mac, I can't eee the drop down on BrowserLab or BrowserShots so can anyone on a PC please check briefly this URL for me to tell me if the drop down is showing the proper background color and if not, is there a fix?
    http://www.designmg.com/new//index3.html

    OK, I tried it with my PC on both Firefox and IE8. With Firefox the menu and submenu text is the orange color but changes to white on hover. Also on hover the drop up submenu appears and the background is the beige color. With IE8 the menu text is italic (somewhat slanted), the text turns white on hover but the background does not appear. Instead, a beige vertical line appears to the right of the drop up submenu (maybe 5 px wide).
    Hope that helps. Sorry I can't offer any suggestions - I'm pretty new at this and I'm working my own issues out with IE. Good luck and Happy New Year

  • Problems to add a background-image to the widget Spry MenuBar!

    With DreamweaverCS4 version 10.0 Build 4117, (italian language) I have tried to add a Spry MenuBar to the one website page.
    But the problem is that I haven't understood where add my property "background-image": url(../immagini/Menu_Button_01.gif).
    In the Application Page of Dreamweaver I have this screenshot:
    But in the Preview Window of InternetExplorer 7 I have this strange behavior:
    The "Menu_Button_01.gif" are a rounded square button made with PhotoshopCS4 and have a transparent background.
    In the IE7 MenuBar doesn't appears as expected, without the transparent background!
    1) How can I do to show my "Menu_Button_01.gif" image as transparent background in the MenuBar?
    2) What is the correct CSS Style Rule to apply the "background-image" property?
    (Example: "ul.MenuBarHorizontal li"? Or "ul.MenuBarHorizontal a"? )
    3) Should I also apply the property: "background-color:transparent"? Where? What is the specific CSS Style Rule?
    I have uploaded my little local WebSite to Rapidshare (100KB):
    http://rapidshare.com/files/370735082/Test_Spry.zip.html
    Please download it to inspect my problem.
    Please response me!
    Horsepower0171.

    For a starter, you should not put your background style rules in the following. The accompanying descriptions will tell you this.
    /* Menu item containers, position children relative to this container and are a fixed width */
    ul.MenuBarHorizontal li
        margin: 0;
        padding: 0;
        list-style-type: none;
        font-size: 100%;
        position: relative;
        text-align: left;
        cursor: pointer;
        width: 116px;
        float: left;
        background-image: url(../immagini/Menu_Button_01.gif);
        background-color: transparent;
    /* Submenus should appear below their parent (top: 0) with a higher z-index, but they are initially off the left side of the screen (-1000em) */
    ul.MenuBarHorizontal ul
        margin: 0;
        padding: 0;
        list-style-type: none;
        font-size: 100%;
        z-index: 1020;
        cursor: default;
        width: 116px;
        position: absolute;
        left: -1000em;
        background-image: url(../immagini/Menu_Button_01.gif);
        background-color: transparent;
    Then when you apply style rules to
    /* Menu items are a light gray block with padding and no text decoration */
    ul.MenuBarHorizontal a
        display: block;
        cursor: pointer;
        padding: 0.5em 0.75em;
        color: #333;
        text-decoration: none;
        background-image: url(../immagini/Menu_Button_01.gif);
        background-color: transparent;
    this will be overridden by the following rules. They replace your image with an arrow image.
    /* Menu items that have a submenu have the class designation MenuBarItemSubmenu and are set to use a background image positioned on the far left (95%) and centered vertically (50%) */
    ul.MenuBarHorizontal a.MenuBarItemSubmenu
        background-image: url(SpryMenuBarDown.gif);
        background-repeat: no-repeat;
        background-position: 95% 50%;
    /* Menu items that have a submenu have the class designation MenuBarItemSubmenu and are set to use a background image positioned on the far left (95%) and centered vertically (50%) */
    ul.MenuBarHorizontal ul a.MenuBarItemSubmenu
        background-image: url(SpryMenuBarRight.gif);
        background-repeat: no-repeat;
        background-position: 95% 50%;
    /* Menu items that are open with submenus have the class designation MenuBarItemSubmenuHover and are set to use a "hover" background image positioned on the far left (95%) and centered vertically (50%) */
    ul.MenuBarHorizontal a.MenuBarItemSubmenuHover
        background-image: url(SpryMenuBarDownHover.gif);
        background-repeat: no-repeat;
        background-position: 95% 50%;
    /* Menu items that are open with submenus have the class designation MenuBarItemSubmenuHover and are set to use a "hover" background image positioned on the far left (95%) and centered vertically (50%) */
    ul.MenuBarHorizontal ul a.MenuBarItemSubmenuHover
        background-image: url(SpryMenuBarRightHover.gif);
        background-repeat: no-repeat;
        background-position: 95% 50%;
    There are one of two solutions
    If you do not want and arrow, simply set background to none in the above four instances.
    If you do want an arrow, include a down arrow image in a second Menu_Button_01.gif image called Menu_Button_01_DownArrow.gif or similar as well as a third one for your right arrow image.
    I hope this helps.

  • Cell background colors are not showing in preview - help? - DW4

    Hi,
    I created a horizontal table for my menu bar, and gave each cell a different color by creating a separate class for each with background image - image is a block of color created in Photoshop. In design mode they look they way I want, but in preview (Safari) the colors don't show up at all - the whole area is gray, and all I see is the text for each cell. Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong? Alternatively, is there a better way I can set this up to have different colors for each button?
    Thank you!

    Here is the HTML code, and the CSS code for the menu bar follows: 
         ul.MenuBarHorizontal           
    ></style><style type="text/css"><!body {     background-color: #FFF;     font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;}-->
        h1.  
         ul.MenuBarVertical

  • Change spry vertical menu background color

    After updating from 4.1 to 6.1, the background color of my
    vertical menu changed to the default grey. How do I change the
    background to my original blue.
    James

    I'm going to give you a couple links to help you out.
    http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/spry/home.html
    - this is the official Spry Homepage. Here you will find an updater
    to the Spry. Most of the documentation on the website is built
    around the latest version and this is where you will find the
    updater. Inside the package are some samples and an extension.
    Install the Extension and then restart DW and under the Sites menu
    you will see a new option to Update Spry. There is also a link to
    the official Spry forums from there.
    http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/spry/samples/menubar/MenuBarSample.html
    - This is a quick sample of different things you can do to change
    the menu bar. This does not include the basic color change. But it
    does give you an idea of how to change things in the CSS file (view
    the source of the page).
    http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/spry/articles/menu_bar/index.html
    - This is directly from the Adobe Spry documentation. If you scroll
    down a ways it will show you how to do the color customizations for
    the Spry Menu Bar.
    Lastly, if you do not have a basic understanding of CSS this
    will all be foreign to you. If that is the case I would highly
    recommend reading over the below CSS tutorial first to get a basic
    understand of the CSS code:

  • Need transparent background color in Spry Menu Bar

    Tried every possible combination.
    Built a 150x1000 px header in Illustrator with a 20x1000 px rectangle at the bottom for the nav bar, set as a background image in the header within Dreamweaver.
    Can not make a transparent (no color) background within Spry Menu Bar: MenuBar1??
    Also, my first nav is 'Welcome' that <li></li> is about 6-8 px higher then the rest of the nav bar??
    Any help at all would be appreciated, thanks
