I don't really want to use a plug in for jquery menu i kinda like pulling out my hair and going crazy... so at the moment im doing just that. Im get this thing to work but for the life of me - its going that way. I just want the second level (i guess .children) to show when hovering over the parent in the top level. I've usually spend hrs/ searching the web for tutorials and read as much as i can before posting but jquery isn't my realm. Right now, i can see the buttons that allow the hidden pages to be revealed on hover but they are not accesible because they fall behind the text and when i view it in firebug it doesn't show that there is a secondary level, just a top level only. Below is what i have in the head of my wp theme..... its a custom jquery menu that i found online. Its my first time building my own WP drop down menu. I know im to change something in the brackets but - total loss and where to start. $(document).ready(function(){ $("ul.children").parent().append("<span></span>"); //Only shows drop down trigger when js is enabled - Adds empty span tag after ul.subnav $("ul.topnav li span").click(function() { //When trigger is clicked... //Following events are applied to the subnav itself (moving subnav up and down) $(this).parent().find(".children").slideDown('fast').show(); //Drop down the subnav on click $(this).parent().hover(function() { }, function(){ $(this).parent().find(".children").slideUp('slow'); //When the mouse hovers out of the subnav, move it back up }); //Following events are applied to the trigger (Hover events for the trigger) }).hover(function() { $(this).addClass(".children"); //On hover over, add class "subhover" }, function(){ //On Hover Out $(this).removeClass(".children"); //On hover out, remove class "subhover" }); }); Here is the CSS.... still im at a loss for what needs to be replaced. ul.topnav { padding: 0; margin: 0; float: left; width: 940px; background-color: #000; position:relative; z-index:1000; } ul.topnav li { list-style:none; font-size: 20px; letter-spacing:1px; font-weight:lighter; font-family: 'Bevan', serif; float: left; margin: 0; padding:5px 10px 10px 17px; position: relative; /*--Declare X and Y axis base for sub navigation--*/ } ul.topnav li a{ padding: 0px 7px; color: #fff; display: block; text-decoration: none; float: left; } ul.topnav li a:hover{ background: url(topnav_hover.gif) no-repeat center top; color:#F9F; } ul.topnav li span { /*--Drop down trigger styles--*/ width: 17px; height: 35px; float: left; background: url(images/subnav_btn.gif) no-repeat center top; } ul.topnav li span.subhover {background-position: center bottom; cursor: pointer;} /*--Hover effect for trigger--*/ ul.topnav li ul.subnav { list-style: none; position: absolute; /*--Important - Keeps subnav from affecting main navigation flow--*/ left: 0; top: 35px; background: #333; margin: 0; padding: 0; display: none; float: left; width: 170px; border: 1px solid #111; } ul.topnav li ul.subnav li{ margin: 0; padding: 0; border-top: 1px solid #252525; /*--Create bevel effect--*/ border-bottom: 1px solid #444; /*--Create bevel effect--*/ clear: both; width: 170px; } html ul.topnav li ul.subnav li a { float: left; font-size:12px; width: 150px; background: #333 url(images/dropdown_linkbg.gif) no-repeat 10px center; padding:10px 0px 10px 20px; } html ul.topnav li ul.subnav li a:hover { /*--Hover effect for subnav links--*/ background: #222 url(images/dropdown_linkbg.gif) no-repeat 10px center; }

/projects/ <--- the page the posts are listed on then when i click "Previous" i get... /projects/page/2/ <-- this is the following url... the older posts don't show. There are a total of 7 posts but the page will only display the same five postings.

anyone

Helloo there, question if someone would be of assistance: I'm unable to get my pagenation working in a custom Wordpress theme. I've tried the default theme and pagenation works there, so I know im doing something wrong. What happens is when i click to go back or forward nothing happens. It just stays on the same page, with the same postings. I attempted to deactivate all pluggins.... that didn't seem to help *cause* pagenation worked when the default theme with the plugins activated. Hope I'm not confusing anyone. Cheers. Below is a snippet of the code: <div id="main-content" > <?php if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?> <div class="blogpost"> <?php if (in_category('4')) continue; ?> <?php the_post_thumbnail(array(180,144), array ('class' => '.thumbnail')); ?> <div class="post-title"> <h2><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to <?php the_title_attribute(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h2> <span class="post-cat"><?php the_tags('Price Range: '); ?></span> <span class="post-comments">City Listing: <?php the_category(', ') ?></span> </div> <div class="entry"> <?php the_excerpt(20); ?> </div> </div> <?php endwhile; ?> <div class="navigation"> <span class="previous-entries"><?php next_posts_link('Older Entries') ?></span> <span class="next-entries"><?php previous_posts_link('Newer Entries') ?></span> </div> <?php else : ?> <h2>Not Found</h2> <p>Sorry, but you are looking for something that isn't here.</p> <?php endif; ?>

dam, i don't have a link as the site isn't even up. Im just coding it.

Im using @fontface... "Chunk Five" Here's the CSS... h1 a {color:#fff;} h1 a:hover {#900;} I've never ran into this bug but when i hover over the text that is a link.... it changes color but the very.. very... very top part of the text (two/three letters at most) are white as the rest changes color. If i move my mouse down a touch it renders it out fine.. Is it something to do with the way the @fontface could be structured in my css/ font's directory. I took the tool kits off they're site. Thanks

Why oh... why... it was a path issue.... i was missing the / unreal how some things just slip past. Thanks guy's;)

Alright, i've never had this one happen before.... The images in the header on the main/ index display but when i click on a blog post and taken to the single page.php the image links appear broken.... except for background images. Anyone know what might cause this issue? thanks

Its paranoia.... trust me. Im far from even considering myself a web designer. I found http://www.dell.com/ Errors found while checking this document as HTML 4.0 Transitional! = 448 Errors, 71 warning(s) I just wish they could've rounded it off to 450 at least.....

Cheers mate!

Hey FC... B4 asking you for assistance for the 100th time i thought i'd give it another shot... i found out why... **shaking my head** I used 'relative links' to my images instead of 'absolute links'. I was oblivious to it when i was scanning through the code. -- Duh -- on me. Everything works fine now... I owe you enough cases of beer due to your help

When I set custom links so i don't get the default urls provided by wordpress my Navigation rollovers are gone... just shows the broken image link. So i had to set it back to the default url until i figure it out. Anyone ever have this issue.
