Missing text / menu bars ?

Rob (SA) · #1 10-07-2007, 07:56 AM

Hi Folks,

I have published this page but cannot see text in the open white spaces which are actually menu bars.

I have tried to place two screen shots in here to explain the effect I am not getting.

The red elipse shows where the menu bars should be.

Any help to fix this would be great.

The problem site is www.gnjgf.co.za/results.php

Hi Rob,

Don't know if this is the problem, but try bringing that text to the front.

Hi Tom,

I have tried that but to no avail.

I have reloaded BV also in the event it might have been a version issue.

I have republished the page.

I have not yet commited a fatal act in desperation.

Thanks for your input

Hi Folks,

Having relooked the source there might be a clashing of items such as the MenuIDMenuBar's

Specifically 1, 2 and 6.

I am not the wizz on this sort of thing but if there are any folk you can help here it would be appreciated.

Your problem page is off-line at the moment, but just try the following:
Cut the text box. Then use the Edit >> Paste to paste it back in place. Do not use any other paste option. Publish and view again.

or if it is a menu, do the same with it.

Hi Tom,

I have tried with the menu's as expressed in you previous mail -cutting and pasting.

This did change the menubar number to another number ie from 6 to 7 but still no success.

Ag nee man, ons sal hom wen. A menu bar with numbers? What do you mean by that?

Can you put your Results page back on line please?

Rob (SA) · #10 10-08-2007, 07:43 AM

Hi Tom.

I am not sure what you mean by put it back online ?

I have the page posted at www.gnjgf.co.za/results.html

I chnaged it from .php in the event that that might be causing the problem.

I see links "March 2007" on the left side of the first box with "Gallery" on the right

"July 2007" and "Gallery" in the second box

"September 2007" and "Gallery" in the third box.

The links have not got the urls attached to them.

Hi, the code for this menu is on the page linking to some pdf files, but I would be pretty sure there is a conflict with the other menus on the page & the scripts they are using. Would it not be better to simplify your menu system? Seems a very over complicated page.

Rob (SA) · #13 10-08-2007, 11:26 AM

Hi Chris,

Thank you for the reply.

You are correct the menus are linked to various .pdf's. For some reason they are not showing.

This page is to be updated as time goes on and therefor simplifying this page might be easier. Your suggestion here on how would be welcome.It might also be a way of getting past this impase.

The information that it presents is purley data on golf events that the kids play in and in time will become historical data. This data needs to be veiwed by everyone so it isnt a matter of just placing it in archives to be withdrawn on request.

I hope this helps you.

Hi Rob, you will need some one that knows code for this. Or! alternatively, Put your menu on a new page & introduce the other elements one by one until it stops working.

Rob (SA) · #15 10-08-2007, 05:04 PM

Hi Chris,

Now I have done the toatal rebuild of the page. I have removed the slider menus - still to no avail.

Maybe there is something wrong with the menu builder itself.

Anybody know "code" that can help?

What are you using to create this menu?

For CSS menu's, this site has a good selection. http://www.cssplay.co.uk/menus/dd_valid_2.html

Rob (SA) · #18 10-08-2007, 06:05 PM

Hi Karen,

I use the "insert text menu" in BlueVoda.

Rob (SA) · #19 10-09-2007, 05:15 PM

Hi Folks,

Well after much trial and tribulation the problem is solved on my side regarding the menusthat would nt show.

I have rebuilt the pages and made the following changes:

Instead of having a slider effect or fading effect - I have reverted to the old and boring "normal" - It worked.

I think with the othe rmenus on my page the sliders get confussed with one another hence the problem.

So to those that might still tread this path here is the help you might enquire about.

Chris thanks for the K.I.S.S advice - Keep It Simple Stupid.

On my menu bars, when they are viewed with firefox, they do not extend all the way out. They slide partially out, but cannot be read. Any help would be appreciated.
