Requirement: The extension requires that AllWebMenus v4.2.628 or above (release date: August 25, 2006) is also installed in your computer. If AllWebMenus is not installed in your computer, please download the latest version of AllWebMenus.

Download AllWebMenus

Your menus need to be compiled with version 4.2.628 or above for the NOF component to function as expected (older compiled menus need to be re-compiled).

Note: For support requests on NOF and AllWebMenus please contact our Beyond Fusion partner at www.beyondfusion.com.

After you have downloaded both the NOF Component and AllWebMenus please follow the instructions below.

How to use AllWebMenus with NetObjects Fusion

Step 1: Create a compiled menu with AllWebMenus

You should have a menu already created and compiled with AllWebMenus somewhere in your hard drive (example: C:\temp\menu.js).

In case you have not registered AllWebMenus yet and want to evaluate the free component, we have included some sample compiled menus inside the zipped package (under the folder "Sample Menus").

Notes for using AllWebMenus:

• Depending on the Publish Type you are using in NOF, please pay attention when you enter internal links at the <URL> property of AllWebMenus. All internal <URL> links should be relative to the published ROOT folder:
  
  

  By taking this into account you can work with all three Publish types!
  - by Site Structure   ( example for <URL>:   page1/page1.html  )
  - by Asset Type       ( example for <URL>:   html/page1.html    )
  - by Flat                  ( example for <URL>:   page1.html           )

• After compiling your menu there is no need to "link" the compiled menu to your pages. The Fusion Component does this for you automatically! So, just ignore this "required" step:

           

• If you use images in your menu, please make sure that their filenames do not have spaces. This is because NOF converts any space to "_", causing the AllWebMenus javascript to display a missing image instead of the actual image.

Step 2: Add the AllWebMenus component into NetObjects Fusion

This is how it works! You can add as many menus as you like, vertical or horizontal, with images or text and many more!
