Spry MenuBar Help

Is there anyway to get the Spry MenuBar to align and work properly in each of the table cells, like the menu below it? I have placed each of the main buttons (home, core IT, option IT, biography and help) into a separate <td> cell. It's really annoying me, I spent around 5 hours yesterday just trying to get it to work, and it works outside of the table cell, but it appears like that inside <td> cells. =/

Also, the error messages that popup on screen are confusing. Both of the files required are uploaded and in the same directory as all the other scripts. =/

1. Yes, but you must have a different menu ID and corresponding constructor for each table cell as follows
<td>
     <ul id="MenuBar">
     <!-- your menu items -->
     </ul>
</td>
<td>
     <ul id="MenuBar_2">
     <!-- your menu items -->
     </ul>
</td>
<script>
// BeginOAWidget_Instance_2141544: #MenuBar
var MenuBar = new Spry.Widget.MenuBar2("#MenuBar", {
      widgetID: "MenuBar",
      widgetClass: "MenuBar  MenuBarLeftShrink",
      insertMenuBarBreak: true,
      mainMenuShowDelay: 100,
      mainMenuHideDelay: 200,
      subMenuShowDelay: 200,
      subMenuHideDelay: 200
// EndOAWidget_Instance_2141544
// BeginOAWidget_Instance_2141544: #MenuBar_2
var MenuBar_2 = new Spry.Widget.MenuBar2("#MenuBar_2", {
      widgetID: "MenuBar_2",
      widgetClass: "MenuBar  MenuBar_2LeftShrink",
      insertMenuBarBreak: true,
      mainMenuShowDelay: 100,
      mainMenuHideDelay: 200,
      subMenuShowDelay: 200,
      subMenuHideDelay: 200
// EndOAWidget_Instance_2141544

  • 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.

  • Spry menubar does not work in IE

    I made a spry menubar to my website using dreamweaver cs3 on
    mac. Everything works fine with Opera, Firefox and Safari, but the
    menubar won't show on Internet Explorer. I've been trying to find
    out how to fix the problem but it still won't work properly.
    Can anyone here help me?
    Thanks!
    You can have a look at the page at

    I have the same problem. Looks great in FF, Safari, Opera,
    but in IE the dropdowns are dancing all over the place. Suspect
    it's something in the hover classification, but can't figure out

  • Dreamweaver spry menubar vertical doesn't work properly in firefox 3.6.3 for windows

    The links in the menu items in the left hand sidebar (a Spry menubar vertical) do NOT work properly in Firefox 3.6.3 for Windows. They work when the home page is first loaded, but when you go to another page using the menu links and return to the home page via the BACK ARROW, the links no longer work. You have to reload the page to get the links to reappear.This bug is only manifested in Firefox 3.6.3 for Windows. The menus work as expected in IE 8 for Windows, Google Chrome 4.1.249.1064 (45376) for Windows, Safari 4.0.5 for the Mac, Google Chrome 5.0.375.38 beta for the Mac and Firefox 2.0.0.17 for the Mac.

  • Spry menubar submenu horizontal instead of vertical

    I have spent two days trying to figure out why the submenu on my spry menubar goes horizontal instead of vertical.  I have watched youtube videos and all the tutorials automatically have them going vertical under each other.  My submenu bar goes left to right and i dont want that.  I have tried several changes with the code in CSS and the HTML and I can move the main menubar and the submenu all over the screen, just cant get it do drop down under each other.  Help please!!

    Have a look here for auto widths http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/spry/samples/menubar/AutoWidthHorizontalMenuBarSample.h tml.
    The only change I would make to the above is to add !important to the following
    ul.MenuBarHorizontal ul li {
        display: block;
        float: none !important;
        width: auto;
        white-space: nowrap;
        border-bottom: solid 1px #EEE;

  • Using Spry MenuBar in a FrameSet

    Hello,
    I would like to use a Spry MenuBar in a fixed top frameset and redirect the link to the bottom frame.  However, when I insert the menubar into the top frame, the Spry MenuBar "widget tab" will not show thus not allowing me to configure the menuing other than directly editing in code view.
    Any help you can asist with will be appreciated.
    Thanks in anvance

    I see this is your first post at the Dreamweaver Spry Forum. Welcome!
    Framesets are an old way of constructing pages. I don't have specific knowledge about how they work with Spry, but it appears that the answer to that is "not well." In construction, a frameset is a set of child pages arranged in a containing frame.
    I suggest that you would be much happier running through a good tutorial on the modern way of building web pages, which is with Cascading Style Sheets. You can easily incorporate Spry MenuBars into those pages.
    Here is a link to such a tutorial: http://www.adobe.com/devnet/dreamweaver/articles/css_page_layout_basics.html

  • Spry MenuBar F. Fox fine, IE Explorer displays off

    Hello Friends,
    I am having an issue with my Horizontal SpryMenubar.
    In Firefox all seems fine. However when I load my website in IE Explorer, a black bar, (same length as my Spry Menubar) appears below the actual Menubar. It almost seems like it is part of the Menubar and but is pushed down out of position.
    I have included my CSS and a screen shot to illustrate the issue.
    If anyone can shed some light on this I would be very grateful hearing from you. Many thanks in advance for your assistance!

    Hi,
    The following code will give you a nice black line as you described:
    ul.MenuBarHorizontal
        margin: 0;
        padding: 0;
        list-style-type: none;
        font-size: 100%;
        cursor: default;
        width: 600px;
        margin:auto;
        background-color: #000000;
    My advice, keep the original CSS and create a myStyles.css which is loaded after the Spry CSS. myStyles.css will then contain your mods. This makes it much easier to keep track of when something goes wrong.
    Hope this helps,
    Ben

  • Spry MenuBar - IE6 - how to make that submenu is shown above the parent element

    Hi you all,
    I need the menubar to open the submenu above the parent element.
    Here´s what I did:I inserted a spry menubar and the only css-change I did was the one shown below in red "botom: 2em;"
    This works exactly as I need it to - in Safari, Firefox and Opera.
    In IE6 however, the submenu is shown far below the parent element. Is there a solution?
    Greetings from Germany

    /* 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) */

    Possibly.  It's hard to tell without seeing your page, though.
    >
    The position of Spry Menu Bar submenus is controlledby the margin 
    property on submenu ul tags.
    1. Locate the ul.MenuBarVertical ul or ul.MenuBarHorizontalul rule.
    2. Change the margin: -5% 0 0 95%; default values to the desired 
    values.

    Also, look through the CSS coments for IE hacks. Often these 
    workarounds for older browsers can be commented out or deleted.  
    Test before you delete anything permanently.

  • How to make spry menubar first button different colour?

    Hi
    When making spry menubar how do you make the first button or whatever page you are on a different colour to show that you are on that page?
    thanks
    alix

    1. Add a helper script called SpryDOMUtils.js as per
    <script src="SpryAssets/SpryDOMUtils.js"></script>
    2. Add a function called InitPage or similar that inspects each of the menu items and compares the link with the current URL as per
    var MenuBar1 = new Spry.Widget.MenuBar("MenuBar1", {imgDown:"SpryAssets/SpryMenuBarDownHover.gif", imgRight:"SpryAssets/SpryMenuBarRightHover.gif"});
    function InitPage(){
    Spry.$$('#MenuBar1 li').forEach(function(node){
        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){
            Spry.Utils.addClassName(node,"activeMenuItem");
    3. Add a listener for when the page is loaded. The listener will be the trigger for the function
    Spry.Utils.addLoadListener(InitPage);
    4. Add a style rule for the activeMenuItem that we, in our function, addedto the current menu item.
    .activeMenuItem a {
        background:#a59a84 !important;
        color:#ffffff !important;
    The !important bit is to override the JS
    Your complete document should look similar to
    <html>
    <head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <title>Untitled Document</title>
    <link href="SpryAssets/SpryMenuBarHorizontal.css" rel="stylesheet">

    .activeMenuItem a {
        background:#a59a84 !important;

  • Spry menubar IE6

    I am working on this page
    http://www.spinsister.nl/TV3/index.htm
    which has a
    spry menubar at the top. Both FF and IE7 show the menu's as
    intented. In IE6
    all looks well when the page is first opened, but when a menu
    link in the
    navbar or in the left sidebar (which has ordinary links, no
    spry) is clicked,
    all text disappears from the navbar at the top, plus visited
    links become
    invisible. I experimented with adding a:visited to

    Does someone know how to solve the problem in IE6?

    I have redone the whole css from scratch, modifying the Spry
    Assets style sheet
    and checking in IE6 as I went along, and found that "all is
    well" in IE6 until
    I change the background colour for the menu items {
    display: block;
    cursor: pointer;
    background-color: #666699;
    padding: 0.5em 0.75em;
    color: #FFF;
    text-decoration: none;
    the moment I change that bg colour, IE6 shows no text in the
    menu's as though
    I'd set the *color* to #669999. But I haven't.
    I have been going over and over this thing now for two days.
    Can someone please
    help me?
    Regards,
    Adriana.

  • 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.)
    Website:
    September
    Entertainment Website
    Style Sheet spry:
    Spry
    CSS
    Thank you in advance for any help you can give me.
    Cheers,
    Janell

    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!!
    Cheers,
    Janell

  • Formatting problem with Vertical Spry Menubar with Frameset

    I have a frameset, which includes a Top Frame, with a nested
    Left Frame, and a nested bottom frame after that. I also have a
    vertical spry menubar in this left frame. When I click on an item
    to view it's submenu, the center frame of the page cuts of a
    significant portion of the submenu. I want the page to appear, so
    that when you click on an item to view it's submenu, the submenu
    appears past the frame's border, without having to set it up so
    that the frame width is relevant to the use of the spry menubar
    within it.
    I talked to a Tech Support person today over the phone, and
    he told me to post here and ask for someone to post custom code for
    this.
    If anyone can help, it would save me so much grief, and I
    would be very greatful!

    There is no practical way to make a positioned page element
    as you have in
    the Spry menus cross the boundary between two separate frames
    (i.e., two
    unique HTML pages).
    It is true. Your choices are limited now -
    1. DUMP THE FRAMES - you would not be having this problem in
    a non-framed
    site.
    2. Redesign your menus so that they do not need to span a
    frame boundary.
    3. Redesign the frameset so that you leave enough room for
    the largest
    popup.
    4. DUMP THE FRAMES - you would not be having this problem in
    a non-framed
    site.
    I recommend either #1 or #4, depending on what your needs
    are. You just
    have no idea the horrors that await you if you continue with
    the frames.....

  • Spry menubar dropdowns partially hidden

  • IE7 blocks Spry Menubar

    With IE7 deliberately reset to default manufacturer's
    settings, I preview my page containing a Spry Menubar and a pop-up
    warning at the top of page states "to help protect your security,
    Internet Explorer has prevented this page from running scripts or
    active X controls... etc". Obviously I can click to allow, or I can
    adjust the settings to allow, but I want users to be able to run
    the page without having to do that. Firefox works fine, of course.
    I tried running a copy of the page without the widget and no pop up
    block occurs. Does that mean I cannot use this Spry widget if I am
    to avoid hassle for IE7 users? Any help much appreciated.

  • Spry Menubar in table -problem in IE

    I'm a newbie to web design and this software...having said
    that here is my issue:
    I inserted a horizontal Spry menu bar in a cell of a table.
    When viewed in Firefox, all is well. When viewed in IE, the Spry
    menubar is no longer in the cell but dropped well below and to the
    right of the entire table.
    Any idea where to correct this?
