Hello,

I really like your menu! I am using it on a school website and am interested in changing the background colors of the panes from grey to something close to the school colors. I found the "coloroutlook" entry in the init.js file, but when I changed it, I got colored bands over the sub-menu items with a grey background. Looks like there must be a location to change the pane background color as well??

Second, I would like to change the default menu position to "all closed" on load. Is there a place to make this change?

Thanks

Hello,

I how to fix the background color - just put into the outlook.html page the line

<body bgcolor= "#(color you want)" /body>

Still haven't figured out how to make the menu default to the closed position.

Any assistance would be appreciated

Alex,

Thanks for the information.

Is it possible to select which panel is active? For instance, can I make the bottom menu panel active on page load, rather than the top panel? Being able to do this would resolve my issue as well.

Also, I still haven't figured out if the menu can be positioned anywhere but the top of the frame. Can this be changed?

Thanks for your help!

Alex,

I haven't been able to get the code to work, due to my ignorance I am sure.

Where should this code be placed? In the frame with the menu?

The code for the menu frame is basically as you created it. I tried to place the code in the <body link="#000000" vlink="#000000" onload=winLoad() onResize="checkResize();"> areea without success.

Thank you for your patience with a novice...

Oops, I've changed my mind... Go to outlook.js and find first instance of the following string: "sho(0)". Then change zero to the zero-based index of the panel you want to see initially.
