hey all, the CurrentItemid is not working for my HouseMenu. i have researched prior to this post and nothing i have tried has worked for me. i am all out of ideas so if anyone has a thought as to what i need to do, please let me know. here is the code for my menu: #HouseMenuNav { width: 100%; font-size: 12px; text-align: center; height: 50px; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; background-color: #FFFFFF; } #HouseMenuNav ul { padding: 0; margin: 0; padding-top: 12px; list-style: none; float: left; border: 0; background-color: transparent; } #HouseMenuNav li { list-style: none; float: left; width: 108px; height: 50px; background-image: url(navOFF.gif); background-repeat: no-repeat; background-color: transparent; } #HouseMenuNav li a:link, #HouseMenuNav li a:visited { display: block; width: 108px; height: 50px; color: #005581; text-decoration: none; padding: 15px 0 0 0; background-color: transparent; } #HouseMenuNav li a:hover { width: 108px; height: 50px; background-image: url(navON.gif); background-repeat: no-repeat; background-color: transparent; color: #FFFFFF; } #HouseMenuNavCurrentItem { width: 108px; height: 50px; background-image: url(navON.gif); background-repeat: no-repeat; background-color: transparent; cursor: default; }

Hello,

I find it hard to go through code without seeing a live example to edit, so here is some code that I used which comes from the 3rd menu in this tutorial:
How to create Horizontal CSS menus in DotNetNuke using the HouseMenu

You have to be really careful with the currentitem element as I found that other elements specified before in the HouseMenuNav class can easily override the colors specified for the currentitem. - You may find it easier to experiment with the web developers toolbar and strip out elements at a time.

Troubleshooting DotNetNuke Skins

The code below should help you solve your problem though.


(This is just for the main menu, not the sub menu)
/* Horizontal Menu */
#HouseMenuNav
{
    /*menu wrapper div */
    margin-left: 50px;
    font: bold 100% Arial, Tahoma, Verdana, Helvetica, Sans-Serif;
}

#HouseMenuNav ul
{
    padding: 0;
    margin: 0;
    list-style: none;
    float: left;
}
#HouseMenuNav ul
{  
    border: 0;
    background-image: url(buttons/button_sm.gif);
    background-repeat: repeat-x;
    background-color: #95353D;
}

#HouseMenuNav li
{
    list-style: none;
    float: left;
}
#HouseMenuNav li a:link, #HouseMenuNav li a:visited
{
    display: block;
    color: #FFF;
    text-decoration: none;
    padding: 4px 1em;
    border-right: 1px solid #711515;
}

#HouseMenuNav li a:hover
{
    background-image: url(buttons/button_hover_sm.gif);
    background-repeat: repeat-x;
    background-color: #711515;
    color: #FFF;
}

#HouseMenuNavCurrentLink
{
    background-image: url(buttons/button_selected_sm.gif);
    background-repeat: repeat-x;
    background-color: #ED9F9F;
    cursor: default;
}

Besides that, you've got a very nice looking site.

I'm wondering how much of this you did yourself?
