upgrade problem

This is a discussion on upgrade problem within the Net Objects Fusion forums in Application Servers & Tools category; I designed a website to promote a friends band. I did this in Fusion 7. I then got a free upgrade to Fusion 8, but I could never get the menus to work in the same way as I had in Fusion 7. Another free upgrade to Fusion 9 ... same problem. Take a look at www.twogiraffes.co.uk and you'll see how the menu currently works.... hovering over some of the parent menu options pops up child options. I can't seem to do that in 8 or 9. Any idea why not? Alan...

Default upgrade problem

I designed a website to promote a friends band.

I did this in Fusion 7.

I then got a free upgrade to Fusion 8, but I could never get the menus to
work in the same way as I had in Fusion 7.

Another free upgrade to Fusion 9 ... same problem.

Take a look at www.twogiraffes.co.uk and you'll see how the menu currently
works.... hovering over some of the parent menu options pops up child
options.

I can't seem to do that in 8 or 9.

Any idea why not?

Alan

Suggestion #1 get rid of frames. I don't think you need frames and they
make your site overly complex.

Of course you can have flyout menus in NOF8 and NOF9.

This is from the NOF9 on-line user guide:

thanks.

Isn't the defaulf for NOF to generate sites with frames ?

If I was to remove all the frames, that would mean I'd have to duplicate my
header & menu bar on every single page ... right ?

Frames are not necessary at all.

Masterborders are what allow for the same menus & headers etc. to remain the
same on all pages. Frames are separate and switched on and off in your
Masterborder properties.

There may be a bit of rearranging necessary, but it is worth it. Frames are
not good practice nowadays and sites like Google do not search your site
properly if you use them.
