Just to illustrate it your code makes it looks like this:

Parent #1
Parent #2
Parent #3
Parent #4
– Child #1a
– Child #1b

I think that will confuse site visitors (it confuses me!). Is there a way to make it look like this?

Parent #1
– Child #1a
– Child #1b
Parent #2
Parent #3
Parent #4

Thanks esmi, that works, kinda. It shows sub pages when I click on a parent page, however it shows them under the rest of the links instead of under the parent page. Is this easy to fix?

Thanks for the info, I’m looking through the links you gave but I don’t seem to be able to find anything that will hide the sub pages until their parent page is clicked. Perhaps I need to know something more specific like the name of the argument that would accomplish this?

Thanks!

how can I check to see?

Not exactly. I’m using to associate certain information with a profile. So a group of the questions are “Rate Yourself” questions with “Please select the characteristic that represents you” type text as directions. Some of them are “Qualifications” etc. I want to label them accordingly. Sort of like this:

Rate Yourself
Please select the characteristic that represents you.
Question One
Radio Button _ Radio Button _ Radio Button _ Radio Button _
Question Two
Radio Button _ Radio Button _ Radio Button _ Radio Button _

Qualifications
Please select the credentials that you possess.
Question One
Radio Button _ Radio Button _ Radio Button _ Radio Button _
Question Two
Radio Button _ Radio Button _ Radio Button _ Radio Button _

I’m wanting to put plain text into the form for those “section labels” and the directions under them.

I too would like to see this capability. My first thought was maybe you can move them around directly in the database? I’m not proficient at this but it occurs to me to try it.

Is there a way around this issue?

Same question

Here’s the template in progress link

Hopefully this’ll help. Another problem that has cropped up is that the secondrow.php doesn’t bump down with the main content, you’ll see when you look at the page that it overlaps the sidebar info. If you have time and don’t mind maybe you could give me some pointers on this too?

Thanks for taking the time to help!!!

This doesn’t work, am I missing something?

how did u create it?

Hmmm it seems like the only solution I can find is to make the width of #secondrow <i>really</i> wide like maybe 3,000 pixels, center it and then disable the horizontal scroll bar. I don’t really want to have to do this because it will make accessibility a nightmare for users who might have a lower screen resolution or a special need.

Any suggestions for another solution?

LOL, designers are supposed to make things look nice. Fixed width looks nice. It is considered desirable. Fluid layout designs have a tendency to be ugly. Yes, you can scale a background image with 100% width and height but then you’ll end up squishing (tweaking the proper proportions) it as well… the horrific diabolical taboo of design. It’s just the sure sign of an amateur. My graphic design professors in collage nagged and harped “NEVER SQUISH OR STRETCH AN IMAGE OR FONT!” And they were right. It’s repulsive.

Fluid design can be very impressive. I don’t think it’s fair to say designers are lazy because they make a qualified design decision to compliment the needs of their design. There is nothing inherently wrong with fixed width.

No one is “lazy” because their priority of aesthetic vs. mechanism is different than yours. Seems silly to be angry and insulting about something that is so subjective anyway.

Why put any thought into visual flow, conceptual positioning, or proper image and text proportions when you can just plop it all in, tell it to stretch to fit, and attribute the resulting hideousness to the “superior design of fluid layout?”

Bleh.

That worked like a charm, Otto thank you so much!
