| Introduction This tutorial will
provide you with detailed information on how to control the
position of the menus on your HTML documents under different
scenarios.
Positioning the menus
DHTML Menu Builder supports two different positioning
methods:
- Free Flow: While in this mode the menus will be
part of your HTML structure and will allow you place the menus
anywhere on your page just as you do with images, tables, text
, etc...
- Floating: In this mode the menus will be floating
elements, which means, that they will not take any space in the
HTML structure of your documents and will float above
everything on your page. Although this provides great
versatility to the menus it makes it a little bit hard to
control their position.
Fortunately, DHTML Menu Builder provides a highly configurable
interface and will let you have total control over the way your
menus are positioned and aligned on your HTML documents.
Understating the Positioning dialog
The position of the menus is controlled through
the
Positioning tab of the
Toolbars Editor dialog. Click
Tools->Toolbars Editor->Positioning
to access it.
A complete description of each one of the options in this
dialog is provided here. In this
tutorial we're not going to describe them, instead, we're going
to present a series of scenarios and we're going to figure out
the best way to use those controls to position our menus.
Here's a list of different scenarios that we're going to
examine in this tutorial:
Free Flow mode:
Floating mode:
