Customer menu not working in shopsite

[Rongshu Zhang]

I had create my own template for my store. There is a little problem with my
menu. The submenu is not working with shopsite. Could you tell me what is
wrong in my menu?
This is what my menu should be: www.ihomewholesale.com/fancy_page_001.html
The menu in here is not working: www.ihomewholesale.com

Thanks,
Harvey

Your style has lines like this:

#dropmenudiv{
position: absolute;
background-color: #E3FFB0;
border:0px solid black;
border-bottom-width: 0;
font:normal 12px Verdana;
line-height:18px;
z-index:100;
}

#dropmenudiv a{
width: 100%;
....

The ShopSite template language uses the # character as a line comment
designator so the first line of each section is being interpreted as a
comment and is removed from the final source on the live page. You
should be able to get around this by putting all of your style in a
single include file and using the [-- include <filename> --] option
without using the PROCESS option to that tag.

Thanks Jim. I had move the style to a file and it works fine, however
something strange about the product field "pull-down menus" option and my
menu. This field is always on top on my menu. An example on this web page:
http://www.ihomewholesale.com/pcbpillows-ss2.html
The pull down menu is on top of the menu when it should be behind the menu.
Do you know how do I fixed this?

Thanks,
Harvey

The problem only happens in IE. I don't see the issue with
Mozilla/FireFox. Your best bet would be to check with whoever wrote the
menu code and see if they can give you an answer.

I have tatolly change my menu to work with IE, I still have the same
problem that the text field is on top of my sub menu.
An example is at http://www.ihomewholesale.com/pcbpillows.html
I do not think this is my menu code problem anymore.
I am using the DefaultCustomProductTemplate for my products. Since I can't
get the menu on top of the option text field, I want to move the option text
field to the center so it won't block my menu. Could you tell me what codes
I need to modify on DefaultCustomProductTemplate?

Also I have error on all my webpage that cause by undefine tag: Could you
able to help me to resolve this tag?

Are you referring to the menu item like "Durags & Wave Caps" sub items
Durags and Wave Caps being displayed on top of the "Select Color"
selection list box or that the Sub items display on top of the main menu
box at the end of the particular menu item highlighted? Or the fact
that IE shows the list box through the sub items? (Mozilla and firefox
don't allow the list box to show through). Have you checked with
whoever wrote the original code to see what they suggest?

As for moving things to the right you would probably have to edit
several files to get everything right aligned instead of left aligned.
Trying to figure out which ones might take a while as there are include
files for each part of the product display. Have you tried just
changing the Product Layout > image alignment field to see if that would
make a difference? Also the Text wrap might have some affect on the way
it looks.

You are missing a tag that defines the media directory location. This
is defined in the custom page templates that use the
defaultcustomproducttemplate. It looks like you are using a template
called fancy_003_product.html. You should define the variable for the
media directory in that template (and any others where necessary). In
the Rounded template that uses the defaultcustomproducttemplate it has
the following:
[-- VAR.Media media/themesmedia --]
near the top of the define page section.

If you want to use the ShopSite provided image just insert the above
line. If you want to use your own image then upload your image in
ShopSite and then use the line
[-- VAR.Media media --]

If you put the image in a subdirectory you may need to include the
subdirectory path as well.

I am referring to the color selection list box shows through the sub items.
I think shopsite is using <select></select> for this pull-down menu. I found
out today that IE and firefox Mozilla run this <SELECT> differently. IE
using window for <select>, so it will on top of everything. There is no way
to get the selection list behind the sub-menu item unless MS change the the
<select> code in IE. I am loking for is a walk around solution for this
issue. Move the color selection list away from the menu. I have tried every
options from the product layout. None of them able to move the selection
list to the left. I need to go in the product template and hard code the
change. If you have any ideal or advice, please let me know. I hope in the
shopsite release will fix this issue.

I tried [-- VAR.Media media/themesmedia --], it resolve the tag error.

Thanks for your help,
Harvey

I just went to the page again and see that the image is now on the left
so it looks like you got it figured out.
