    Default Flyout Menues

    Hi,

    I might just have my head where the "sun don't shine" but all of a sudden
    I'm having trouble incorporating flyout menues.

    XP Pro SP3 NOF 11 (XI). Dynamic Pages, and using the "Advanced" on the Nav
    Bar Properties to set the flyouts.

    Specifically, I cannot seem to get flyouts to work on the Home Page and am
    looking for assistance/comments on doing so.

    --I am aware if the link is part of the menu that it won't appear in a
    flyout.
    --Go to NavBar Properties and set Home Page to have flyouts upon hover and
    disappear when not hovering.
    --Click "Advanced" in next Properties window, set direction of flyout, etc.
    --Go to Preview and those flyouts will not work. Flyouts on other pages work
    fine as long as I keep track of what I'm doing.
    For example if the Home Page has a link to page 1, which in turn has a
    link to pages 3, 4, and 5, no flyouts at all will appear when hovering on
    the link to Page 1 on the Home Page. What should happen is hovering over
    the Page 1 link on the Home Page should flyout page1, and then Page 1 should
    flyout pages 3, 4, and 5.

    Yes, I know flyouts make the page larger and aren't good practice on a Home
    Page but the customer wants what he wants. I could code up something to do
    this, but ... NOF should be able to do it, right?
    Anyone have a link to a tut or paper on flyouts?

    No server side work used in these stubs, so I could put it up on the web but
    it doesn't seem necessary. If I'm wrong, feel free to tell me and I'll
    upload it.

    TIA,

    Twayne`

    Belay that! The light at the end of the tunnel finally wasn't a train! It
    works just fine now. Funny how software does what you tell it to do and not
    what I MEANT for it to do!

    Sorry for wasting the ether!
