[Pro] CSS menus and ESS
Can anyone tell me if it’s possible to use the External Style sheets Action with pages incorporating the CSS Menu actions?
I get Errors and cant seem to work it out.
Thanks

What sorts of errors? Do you get an error while publishing, or when you view the finished site?

Both. JavaScript errors on publishing and I can’t get ESS to work, therefore the CSS is within the source. I have to ‘clear errors’ to get the menus to show after errors.
I tested the file by removing the CSS menus and the document publishes fine with ESS working correctly.

How did you construct your menus? Is it a single indented list with the CSS Menu action applied; or is it made up of multiple html boxes with one html box for each menu?

It’s a single indented list, with sub levels. I’m only testing the whole function out, so if you tell me that the CSS menu code should move to the External Style Sheet, then I’ll delve into it more. It just seems to be the ESS action and CSS menus action dont work together, causing a conflict so that it it doesnt move to the ESS. I may be wrong, but would appreciate feedback if you think i’ve got this all wrong.

I would imagine that ESS and CSS are firing at the same time, or maybe ESS is firing before CSS does. In either case, it would be easy to imagine that the styles aren’t all written to the head before ESS scoops them up and deletes the entire style tag. ESS was written years before CSS Menus burst onto the scene, and I haven’t ever looked back at it to see about these sorts of interactions.

CSS menus does not work with ESS-Convert to style sheet, I need some help, I have proven by code with Dreamweaver and it works but I want to work online in real time.
I don’t think these two are going to play nicely with one another. But here’s something you could try, though. Use a plain text editor, like TextWrangler from http://barebones.com and open the Action file. (It will be in your Library folder, at this path: [your home folder]/ Library/Application Support/Freeway 5/Actions/General/)
On line 61, change the word
fwBeforeEndHTML
to read
fwAfterEndHTML
and do the same on line 178. Save the file, and switch back to Freeway (no need to restart it or anything) and try your page again. If it works, then please let me know, and I’ll update the official version.
