Vertical spacing spry menu bar
I have a Spry vertical menu bar-CS3. What spry menu bar rule do i change to increase vertical space between items? And what property do I make the adjustment in? Thanks. I messed up the default spacing some how and am not sure how get back to default which provided more vertical space between items.
Thanks. Donna

Spry menu bar places vertically, not horizontally?
I followed the tutorial on using the widget browser to download Spry Menu Bar 2.0 and after configuring for a horizontal bar placed the bar in the tutorial index.html. The placement results in a vertical menu bar. What am I doing wrong?

/* 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.

Help with vertical spry menu bar submenu displaying incorrectly!
I’m new to Dreamweaver and am learning as I go. I am having a problem with the vertical spry menu bar submenu in the Live View. When I scroll over the spry menu bar option that has a submenu, the submenu appears in the upper right hand corner of my screen. (My menu bar is going down the left hand side.) However, when I preview it in Internet Explorer it looks fine after I allow the Java Script to run or the Active X controls, which my browser usually automatically blocks. (The browser just displays a small message along the top and I click on it to allow it.) To get it to do this much, I had to play around with the CSS for the spry menu bar a little bit.
Before, when I clicked on the Live View option, a small message ran along the top in Dreamweaver saying it couldn’t find the Flash Plugin and asked me to download the most recent FlashPlayer, which I did twice. It continued to say that and then I just closed that message that kept popping up, but I think that has something to do with the problem. I then researched that problem in the Spry Framework Help and Dreamweaver Help, but couldn’t find a solution that worked. (Someone had posted a link for downloading the Flash Player for Netscape Navigator, but that didn’t seem to do anything.)
Please also note that I am using one of Dreamweaver’s pre-built layouts. I don’t know if that makes a difference with this problem.
How do I fix this problem so that it displays correctly in the LiveView? And will the message that I get on my browser about allowing blocked content appear on other people’s computer when they open my website?IE is a big problem child among browsers. Don't use it as your default browser.
For best results, build your site to display & perform well in the web standards browsers like Firefox, Chrome, Safari & Opera. If it works in one, it should work pretty much the same in all of them.
After you're satisfied with how your site looks in the good browsers, then test in IE. If needed, add hacks or conditional comments to make IE behave. There are many web sites that discuss known bugs in IE and how to work around them.
Lastly, the active X nag screens only appear locally. Once deployed on the remote server, you won't see them.
For better answers to your layout questions, we need to see your page. Can you post a URL?

Hi,
Since the site isn’t online yet I posted my project for downloading. I am using Dreamweaver CS4.
For the website I am creating I would like to have a spry menu bar. I have been trying to figure this out but I can’t do it. The main file I am working with is named “theme_02_design.html” which is found in the Publish folder inside of In Play by Heather Ashley Inc. As you can see there is a left navigation area with 3 items listed (Home, Products, and Contact Us). I would like to change this into a vertical spry menu bar. Every time I try to do this the page is distorted in some way or another. I would like the menu on the left of the screen to look the same but with the vertical spry menu bar functions.
When someone visits the page I would like them to hover over the word products and have a submenu with multiple items.
It would look something like this...
Home
Products - submenu - Warm Up Series (I would insert a submenu here as well)
Contact Us Lace Up Hooded Sweatshirt
Fleece Name Pants
Shorts
Accessories
Shell Colors
Trim Colors (I would insert a submenu here as well)
Can anyone help?
ThanksI fiddled around with your file. I will attach the zip of your files.
Take a look at your page. I commented out your original navigation and added a Vertical Spry Menu Bar.
You will have to do some more adjusting, but I copied portions of your own CSS file into the Spry Menu Bar CSS.
See what you can do with it.

Vertical Spry Menu Bar not working in all browsers
Hi, everyone!
I'm hoping you'll help me troubleshoot something. I have a spry menu bar (vertical) that's expanding properly in IE but not in Firefox or other browsers. Here is the link:

Thanks in advance for any help!

IE problems with vertical spry menu bar
hi,
first of all: I'm aware that this problem has been discussed
before. but nothing I've found so far has really helped me.
the problem is that my vertical spry menu bar doesn't work
properly with the internet explorer. I've (clumsily) repositioned
the submenu bars, but that didn't seem to be the main problem.
I'm using dreamweaver cs3 on a mac and have checked for
safari and firefox, in which everything works fine. I'd be very
grateful if someone could have a look at
www.philipbirau.com/portfolio.htm.
unfortunatly, I have neither the skills nor the money for
'professional' webdesign, so any hint will be appreciated. if you
need more information, please let me know.
thanks!

Spry menu bar - vertical format instead of horizontal
When I inserted the Spry Menu Bar I selected a Horizontal format (instead of Vertical). However, the menu bar appears vertically in the document. I have inserted it on top of the banner (which was inserted as a background image within a table) and is definitely wide enough to accommodate a horizontal menu bar. I have deleted it and tried a couple of times but still the horizontal selection appears in a vertical format. Any ideas much appreciated.
This is how it appears in code:
<table width="970" border="0">
<tr>
<td height="160" class="banner"><ul id="MenuBar1" class="MenuBarHorizontal">
<li><a href="#">Item 1</a> </li>
<li><a href="#">Item 2</a></li>
<li><a href="#">Item 3</a> </li>
<li><a href="#">Item 4</a></li>
<li><a href="#">Untitled Item</a></li>
</ul></td>
</tr>
</table>Make sure that you have saved the Spry Assets that go along with the Menubar. I assume that you have, but this menubar is a simple list without its assets.
Also make sure that you have not inadvertently indicated the Vertical menubar. I assume that you have not.
When you delete and re-insert a Spry Widget, make sure that you do it by clicking anywhere in the Widget on the Document Window and then clicking on the blue widget tab. Then press delete, and all evidence of the Widget will go from your page. I find that manually editing does not always 'clean up' after disabling a Widget.
If you can post the page live somewhere, we can give you a better answer.

For some reason, whenever I roll over my vertical spry menu bar, instead of it going to the side, the submenus open within the menu bar, blocking the other menu bar items. How do I make it go to the side?
Also, is there a way to make it so that the submenu items open within and underneath the menu item, but push the other menu items below it rather than going over it?
Thanks!The online version of SpryMenuBar.js is still 1.4
Instead of uploading the file, let's try to latch onto the JS file that Adobe has online. This means that you need to change line 9, or thereabouts, from
<script src="SpryAssets/SpryMenuBar.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
to
<script src="http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/spry/includes_minified/SpryMenuBar.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
Then go down to lines 28-30 and remove these as they have already been loaded above.
To make the menu stretch the full width add the following style rule or change the existing rul to include the following
ul.MenuBarHorizontal li {
width: 16.666667%;
After you have done that we'll go on from there

Vertical Spry menu bar--adjusting bottom submenu
I'm trying to adjust the last submenu on my vertical Spry menu bar. Originally, the submenu caused the page to either expand when I moused over the submenu (in IE), or the page would load with white space below the footer in order to accomodate the submenu when I mouse over it (in Firefox). The adjustment I want is to move the submenu up so that neither of those things happen. I've made the adjustment appear exactly how I want it to in Chrome and Safari, but IE, Firefox, and Opera now have the submenu placed halfway up the page. I can post the code if it's helpful, but I do not have the site hosted anywhere at the moment. The adjustment I made is in the Spry menu's css:
ul.MenuBarVertical ul#last
margin: -205% 0 0 95%;
Any help is appreciated. Thank you!
SarahThanks for the reply. After changing the code to your suggestion, now the submenu loads approximately 80px below the last menu item in all browsers except IE. In IE, the submenu looks the way it did straight out of the box. Any other ideas to try?

Vertical spry menu bar 2.0 - orientation of submenus (left vs. right fly-out)
Hello:
I have a general question I would like to pose to anyone who has worked with the vertical spry 2.0 menu bar regarding the orientation of sub-menus (left vs. right flyout). In the previous version of the spry menu bar it was possible to to designate that the flyout sub-menus would appear to the left (as opposed to the right (normal or standard position) of the main level menu bar.
In reviewing the tutorials for the new version, and reviewing the settings for the widget I can't seem to see anything similar for the latest version of the spry menu bar. Does anyone now if this is possible? Does it require adjustments to the Javascript or can it be done directly from within the widget customization.
I realize that it isn't normal practice to pose questions in such general terms, however I thought I would try to determine if anyone has had experience in this regard before launching into the project.
Thanks in advance.
Steve WebsterOK, here's what I've done. By adjusting the right padding on #MenuBarVertical .MenuItem .MenuItemLabel, AND #MenuBarVertical .SubMenu .MenuItem .MenuItemLabel, I was able to position the right arrows to where I wanted them. I also removed all links from top-level menu items so that the fly-out submenus would appear on a touch screen. You can see the results on my client site: www.gcssepm.org. I must say that this solution was not intuitive; it took a lot of experimentation to figure out which rule to adjust, and menu rules vs. submenu rules seem to operate in the opposite manner as far as padding and arrows go.
I do have a similar issue with Scott, in that it takes two or more "taps" to get the submenus to fly out, but at least the arrow is there so the user knows there is a submenu to be had. The only real issue I still have is that for sub-submenus (i.e., third-level), no amount of tapping will get those to display long enough to select them (only an issue on the iPad). I don't know a way around this for the iPad, other than to also eliminate all links from second-level menus that have a third level, and that's more reprogramming than I want to do for today.
Final questions regarding the Spry 2.0 widget. Obviously, after I customized the widget, saved it, and imported into my site template, it took some additional tweaking before everything was working properly. Is there a way to export the settings back out to the widget, so that all the tweaking is there? Also, is there a way to save my menu text back to the widget, because it is obviously NOT Home, Entertainment, Music, etc.
Thanks for all your help, and I hope someone else benefits from my experiences as well.

Spry menu bar woes (add submenu levels and edit width)
So i need some spry menu bar help. Apparently as a graphic designer i'm also expected to webdesign, and while i can solve most problems with a good googling, i seem to be at my wit's end fo this one. So the site i'm doing has a header ith a horizontal spry pop-up menubar (in Dreamweaver CS4). But some problems arise: when i manually add another submenu level, they don't show up in chrome or FF, they do werk perfectly in IE6. I just add the following code to the codepage:
<li><a href="#" class="MenuBarItemSubmenu">audio equipment</a> <ul> <li><a href="#">Digital Matrix Systems</a></li> <ul> <li><a href="#">R2 Digital Audio Matrix</a></li> </ul> <li><a href="#">pre-amplifiers & mixers</a></li> <ul> <li><a href="#">PMX124</a></li> </ul>
the PMX never pops open in FF an chrome.. Should i be adding anything else to another part of the code? i'd like my submenu text to have a slight indent? How ever, when i add the indent to ul.menubarhorizontal ul , it elongates the submeny boxes in IE6, while looking normal (width) in chrome and FF. WHat part of the CSS style should i change to just have the text scoot over a bit without it really affecting the box layout? ALso, if anyone could tell me how to add a wee bit of spacing above the text (and beneath), i'd be eternally gratefull. Also, how do i change the with of the submenus? seing as my main buttons are images, but the names i ned to put in my submenus are turning out to be pretty long...
HTML code for the menu:
<tr> <td><ul id="MenuBar1" class="MenuBarHorizontal"> <li><a href="#" onmouseout="MM_swapImgRestore()" onmouseover="MM_swapImage('Products','','images/knoppenrollover_01.jpg',1)"><img src="images/knoppenbalk_01.jpg" name="Products" width="169" height="41" border="0" id="Products" /></a> <ul> <li><a href="#" class="MenuBarItemSubmenu">audio equipment</a> <ul> <li><a href="#">Digital Matrix Systems</a></li> <ul> <li><a href="#">R2 Digital Audio Matrix</a></li> </ul> <li><a href="#">pre-amplifiers & mixers</a></li> <ul> <li><a href="#">PMX124</a></li> </ul> <li><a href="#">music Sources</a></li> <li><a href="#">amplifiers</a></li> <li><a href="#">paging</a></li> <li><a href="#">speakers</a></li> <li><a href="#">microphones</a></li> </ul> </li> <li><a href="#">racks and stands</a></li> <li><a href="#">cables</a></li> </ul> </li> <li><a href="#" onmouseout="MM_swapImgRestore()" onmouseover="MM_swapImage('Company','','images/knoppenrollover_02.jpg',1)"><img src="images/knoppenbalk_02.jpg" name="Company" width="165" height="41" border="0" id="Company" /></a> <ul> <li><a href="#">Who are we?</a></li> <li><a href="#">history</a></li> <li><a href="#">contact us</a></li> <li><a href="#">philosophy</a></li> <li><a href="#">careers</a></li> </ul> </li> <li><a href="#" onmouseout="MM_swapImgRestore()" onmouseover="MM_swapImage('news','','images/knoppenrollover_03.jpg',1)"><img src="images/knoppenbalk_03.jpg" name="news" width="166" height="41" border="0" id="news" /></a></li> <li><a href="#" onmouseout="MM_swapImgRestore()" onmouseover="MM_swapImage('projects','','images/knoppenrollover_04.jpg',1)"><img src="images/knoppenbalk_04.jpg" name="projects" width="166" height="41" border="0" id="projects" /></a></li> <li><a href="#" onmouseout="MM_swapImgRestore()" onmouseover="MM_swapImage('Downloads','','images/knoppenrollover_05.jpg',1)"><img src="images/knoppenbalk_05.jpg" name="Downloads" width="165" height="41" border="0" id="Downloads" /></a> <ul> <li><a href="#">catalogs</a> </li> <li><a href="#">manuals</a></li> <li><a href="#">software</a></li> <li><a href="#">documents</a></li> <li><a href="#">pricelists</a></li> </ul> </li> <li><a href="#" onmouseout="MM_swapImgRestore()" onmouseover="MM_swapImage('Contact','','images/knoppenrollover_06.jpg',1)"><img src="images/knoppenbalk_06.jpg" name="Contact" width="169" height="41" border="0" id="Contact" /></a></li> </ul></td>

.. 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. -
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.

How do I eliminate the space above a spry menu bar?
I made a table, set the CellPad and CellSpace to 0, and set
the width to 800 pixels. Then, I inserted an image (with a width of
800 pixels) into the table, and set the V and H of the image to 0,
and aligned the image to the top. Then, I copied a spry menu bar
(with a width of 800 pixels) above the table and pasted it in the
table underneath the image. There is a vertical space of 16 pixels
between the image and the spry menu bar. How do I eliminate this
vertical gap?The Spry Updater is at:
http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/spry/home.html
If there is a spacing issue it is hard to tell without the
code. By default the Spry menu bar has 0 for margin and padding.
Make sure there is not a <p> tag within the table because the
<p> tag has an inherit padding/margin to it and could be
causing issues. The image and Spry should just be within the
<td> </td> without any <p> tags inside. -
Spry menu bar doesn't appear correctly in IE
Hi guys..
I created a spry menu bar in DW CS4. It looks fine in Firefox but in IE 8, the background image of the navigation bar appears white after allowing activecontrol to run. I didn't include any image for ul.MenuBarHorizontal a because I wanted to use the background image for the div containing the navigation bar.(Hope I didn't confuse you there).. I tried using the search box but couldn't find any solution to my problem. Here are my screen shots.
This is in firefox.
This is in IE 8 before allowing activex.
This is in IE 8 after allowing activex. (Part of the navigation bar is white)
Here's the code.Hope you can help me asap. Thanks!

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;/* HACK FOR IE: to stabilize appearance of menu items; the slash in
float is to keep IE 5.0 from parsing */
