Menu Help Needed Options

[richnlp]

Hey everybody, I have a client with 2 sites. One site is a copy of the other site. The issue is the menu links won't work on the new site. Anything wrong in my source code or something else? Thanks!

Site 1 (original site)

Site 2 (New site with menu issue)

You can't use a background image to use as links. It has to be a real inline image inside the TD tag (using the usual IMG tag). But then you'll have to create an image map that matches the texts on the image. See http://htmlhelp.com/reference/html40/special/map.html .

Better yet, use a list for real text links. The background gradient (without the white texts) can then still be used as background-image. See http://css.maxdesign.com.au/listutorial/ or one of the other listamatic or float tutorials at http://css.maxdesign.com.au .

The AllWebMenus stuff is removed on the second site.

Indeed, that's a better way to code it. A background(-image) can then be given to UL instead of to A, like the one at Site 1 given to TD.

Though, I'm not sure if the OP is still working on that site. This thread is already a couple of months old and I still see just an inline image with the link texts as part of the image at Site 2, for which an image map will be needed to make them clickable links.
