Hat's Off !

e_x

I will just like to say hat's off to you guys whose 2nd language is dhtml and javascript. Initially, I wanted to include vertical flyouts into my website to improve navigation. Unfortunately, despite the mio or so websites, describing in full detail & technicolor exactly how to write the codes, I fail to comprehend. I simply cannot grasp the codes the past few days and may never will in this lifetime.

As such, for the time being, I will like to include a "folder tree" kind of navigation instead. Clicking on a word or phrase will expand the tree, which will also unexpand when another word or phrase is clicked.

I hope that the coding for this is less compilcated and any help will be appreciated.

TQ

It still would be based on JavaScript DHTML

Try this:

Better, but there are licensing issues

you could make it real easy on yourself and simply use a program like this:

I'd recommend the program above because it's easy to use and the guy who
wrote it is a 100% stand-up guy.

Nobody is really good at any of this stuff at first. But keep doing it, and
you will be, I promise!

Naw, I saw a flyout site yesterday but have no idea where
it is. (My IE has a problem where I can't access
History). I don't go for hokey stuff like that.

I personally have had good luck with the scripts from
Dynamic Drive. I use their Top Nav 3 on our Fire Department
website. I remember being frustrated the first time I
worked with it.
I am currently doing the annual rebuild. This time we will
be using Jim's Menu, again from Dynamic Drive. Still took
some time, but after a couple of days it just becomes a
tweaking matter.
