Need help with 2 issues:

1. The jquery drop-down items on my top menu display correctly - but disappear as soon as I move my cursor to make a selection - which means I can't select them.

2. Finally figured out how to add page specific submenus in the side bar using custom menu widgets (as I don't want just a repeat of the top menu) BUT they don't display the same "active" or "current" behaviours as the 'Submenu' items

Look here to see the problem I'm having.... http://test.itfordev.com/ogmatic

I would greatly appreciate instructions on how to resolve these issues.

Hi,

did you solve the first issue? It seems to work fine for me. I don't believe it's currently possible to have the "current" behaviour for the custom menu widgets. The standard ones should work fine. Maybe I'm wrong, - have you checked if your plugins interfere with the menu at all?
Let us know :)

Hi Chris,

Yes, I solved the first menu issue by changing the css values for the drop-down menus in order to move the closer to the top menu text items, and they work now.

Are you sure there isn't a way for me to add a "current" behaviour for the custom menu widgets. It's not really good interaction design for them not to be highlighted in some way to give a visual indicator of where the user is within the menu tree.... Which plugins are you referring to? I haven't added any to the basic Display theme.

Any help you can give would be appreciated.

Thanks!

Hey,

try adding this to your style1.css
```
#menu-ogmatic li.current-menu-ancestor > a {
     color: #FF0099;
}

.current-menu-item {
     font-weight: bold;
}
```
The first two lines are for the menu color of the parent, the other lines are to make the current page highlighted.
