Im trying to make a new skin. Ive added the skin.xml file. 1.Is the file supposed to be called skin or have the same name as the ascx file (tried both)? 2. This is what i have in my XML file i started with one CSS class to see if i can get the menu to use it but it doesnt work. Im trying to learn the ascx skinning method but id like to be able to do this the HTML skin.xml way as well. <Objects> <Object> <Token>[NAV]</Token> <Settings> <Setting> <Name>ProviderName</Name> <Value>DNNMenuNavigationProvider</Value> </Setting> <Setting> <Name>CSSNodeRoot</Name> <Value>an_menuItem</Value> </Setting> </Settings> </Object> </Objects>

The xml file should be named skin.xml. To see if your xml file is parsed the way that you think that it should be parsed, look at the resulting ascx page and find the lines in the file that specify the menu. Using your example, you should see an attribute of the menu that says CSSNodeRoot="an_manuItem"

Can you provide me with an example? This is what the DNNMENU tag in the .ascx file lookslike after reparsing: <dnn:MENU runat="server" id="dnnMENU" /> Below is my skin.xml (i have FTP it to the skins folder so its in the same as the htm file that will be parsed and also the skin.css.) I reparse but i dont see any results. <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <Objects> <Object> <Token>[NAV]</Token> <Settings> <Setting> <Name>ProviderName</Name> <Value>DNNMenuNavigationProvider</Value> </Setting> <Setting> <Name>CSSControl</Name> <Value>anMenu_bar</Value> </Setting> <Setting> <Name>CSSContainerRoot</Name> <Value>anMenu_container</Value> </Setting> <Setting> <Name>CSSNode</Name> <Value>anMenu_item</Value> </Setting> <Setting> <Name>CSSNodeRoot</Name> <Value>anMenu_rootitem</Value> </Setting> <Setting> <Name>CSSIcon</Name> <Value>anMenu_icon</Value> </Setting> <Setting> <Name>CSSContainerSub</Name> <Value>anMenu_submenu</Value> </Setting> <Setting> <Name>CSSBreak</Name> <Value>anMenu_break</Value> </Setting> <Setting> <Name>CSSNodeHover</Name> <Value>anMenu_itemhover</Value> </Setting> </Settings> </Object> </Objects>

It looks like you've named the tag MENU but the XML file refers to NAV. I am sort of guessing here as I don't use the HTML form for skins. I just do the ascx file directly.
