Hi,

When the Home page of my site loads it shows the Home button on my horizontal menu as being depressed. How do I disable this feature?

In addition my horizontal menu is remembering clicks and showing a depressed menu option after I move my mouse off of it. How can I have my menu items refresh back to normal mode after a mouse click?

Thanks!

Hello Mark,

The menu highlights the page that the user is currently on. What it does is to check the browser URL and see if it matches the URL of one of the buttons.If it does, that button is changed to "down" state.

If you don't want this chage to occur you need to change the URL of the buttons. For example, edit the menu instance from the home page and change the URL for the home button to "#". Make sure that you don't have "update in all pages" selected.

Kind regards,
Andrei

So there is no way to deactivate this "down" state checking?

I had already figured out what you suggested, but issue with that is that it is a huge mess to have to edit each of my pages with # for that page and then update all of my pages manually from that point on.

Hello again Mark,

I'm afraid there is no way of deactivating this. But why would you want to do that? By switching to over state you show to the visitor what page he is currently viewing. It is the normal behavior of a menu system.

Regards,
Andrei
