Hi – love your menu! I like navigatoin to have an escape rout – can I add the links inside the slider? I would rather they can go from ” apps” to “plates” without having to get off then back on again ( hope Im making sense! )
thanks muy mucho!

Hi Mary, I hope you can help me.
I like so much your tutorial, but I would like adding the “minimalist gallery” inside this menu content.

The problem is that the thumbanails appear in vertical and also the controls…

Can you help me?

Hi, Mary first of I would like to thank you for this awesome tutorial. But I have an issue. I want to put a home link in the main menu and I don’t want any effect on home. But when I put the link of the same index.html in the href, it stops working. Is it necessary to always put an image link in the href. Or there is some way through which I can achieve my goal. It will be a great help.

Thank you.

I think my problem above may be because there are 2 javascripts running? (the second script being from lightbox)

Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

Mary Lou, Thank you this site is terrific. One question:

I would like to load a lightbox gallery in one of the popups, I can not seem to get it to work. Any tips on how to go about doing so? I have followed many tutorials with no success. like http://lokeshdhakar.com/projects/lightbox2/#how

Thanks!

John

@Sammy (maybe others too). First off al thanks for this great tutorial!
I also was wondering how to go back to the default image after closing the sub page.
And I found out how-to! Change the closeSubmenu (lines 129 – 138 from the tutorial) to:

closeSubMenu = function($sub_menu) {
$sub_menu.stop()
.animate({
height : ’0px’,
marginTop : ’0px’
}, 400, function() {
//show items
toggleMenuItems(‘up’);

});

var $defaultImage = $(”);
$defaultImage.insertBefore($ac_bgimage);
adjustImageSize($defaultImage);
$ac_bgimage.fadeOut(1500, function() {
$(this).remove();
});
$ac_bgimage = $defaultImage;
$defaultImage.fadeIn(1500);

Hi Mary Lou,

I really wish you had walked us through your choice of using the promises and deferreds apis. Why not use consecutive functional calls? What benefits do these new apis bring?
