I’ve read the existing posts regarding adding a Facebook Like button to a website. I think (read hope) I can figure out the basics. However…
I’d like to put this into a CSS menu as the final item on a list (displayed vertically on the left side of the page).
Any suggestions on how to approach this?

it isn’t too hard really.
Just pay attention to copy the right code from facebook developer first (the usual, with names is very wide)
then create your css menu as usual, and after the last word go to “insert”->“markup item”
paste your facebook script in the pop up window.
finally organise your menu as you are used to, paying attention to the width of the sub-menus.
That’s it.

Vincent,
Thank you. Very straight-forward, if you know what you’re doing.
One last question. Is there any way of displaying just the “Like” button without the count or count box?

To my knowledge not, unfortunately. Maybe someone here could help???
With the button_count option in Facebook, the numbers are relatively small and remain under 4 digits, turning k or m if you have over 1 million true friends;-)
This way the size should remain rather small.
Don’t forget that the css menus have endless of options, such as insert a graphic item, animate them, use the caxton action, or insert a moo:spawn new window. Quite a lot of ideas there!
have a look under http://www.ysuzac.com I just made a few funny things out of the css menus, without a line of code.

Vincent, again many thanks.
I figured that since Facebook generates the code for “standard,” “box count,” and “button count” that there wouldn’t be a way of stripping anything off (at least not easily).
Speaking of easily, your ysuzac.com example is tremendous. If it is possible, can you either post a way to download the menu structure or direct me (and others) to explanations of each affect in the Softpress Knowledge Base (if there are any)?
Thanks. Helpful comments and suggestions such as yours are real encouragements to expand one’s skill set.

Thanks for your comments!
I will rather explain the menu here, because it isn’t that complicated to understand.
The menu is made of 3 different parts:
-the upper part, just a regular css menu, animated with moo: effect on load, and a few styles from the inspector palette
-the middle part, made of a picture (logo) with the same moo animation and a rollover to show/hide layer:
-the third part, regular css menu that shows up once you hover the middle one with a show/hide layer action. Noting really tricky here actually, and it even works on IOS… (but almost too small to be seen)
Try it out, spend some time on the different action pages, read the forum! it’s well worth it- full of priceless informations!
