Re: Drop Down Menu Gap : Adobe Dreamweaver

ok ok ok... forget it...
You do not have a spry menu on your page, im not sure why we are even talking about it.
This type of menu would have been better created as a spry, but since you do not have it as a spry currently, and it sounds like you are not really wanting to recreate the menu from scratch, AND you say you want to know how to fix the problem rather than have it fixed, then we need to talk about some javascripting.

Basically, you have a some javascript files telling your page how to stach these menu items. Your anchors are then seen as menu items, and stacked acordingly.
The problem however is that the menu items on this page are numbered, and then stacked by the javascript. You need to look at your code view.

Click on the liverpool anchor, then switch your page layout to split view, so you can see the code and the design underneath.

After having clicked on liverpool, this code will be highlighted.

<a href="Default.aspx?Page=customer&file=customer/bleinc/customerpages/loc_liverpool.htm" id="MMMenu0708195531_1_Item_11" class="MMMIVStyleMMMenu0708195531_1" onmouseover="MM_menuOverMenuItem('MMMenu0708195531_1');">

		Liverpool,&nbsp;NY</a>

You see that in this code, it is defining this as id=MMMenu0708195531_1_Item_11 The menu item you deleted, was MMMenu0708195531_1_Item_12. The next one is MMMenu0708195531_1_Item_13, which is what you are left with. So, you are going from 11 to 13.

OK, so your javascript, in simple terms, is daying stack everything in number order, in the order of the ID. So, basically, it says 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15.. of course, there is no 12.. so its blank.

So, click on the menu item, FMHS Jacksonville, and in the code view, change MMMenu0708195531_1_Item_13 to say MMMenu0708195531_1_Item_12. change FMHS Tallahassee from from 14 to 13, and corporate from 15 to 14.

This aught to sort it
