I was trying to integrate a WebYep Menu in my site. When visiting the uploaded page, there is always a bullet-point in front of the menu item and the item is underlined.
How do I avoid this?
You need to style the menu using CSS styles. Did you get the WebYep
Manual? It gives you some styles to get started with.

I mog I am assuming you know there is webyep menu styler… There a whopping great big tutorial and its even got a step by step break down of what each stage does and looks like…
it even takes out the bullet for you automatically…
Yes I have the tutorial and the WebYep menu styler but bullets are still there. I’m going to start from scratch again and see if i missed something or if the current Freeway document is getting tired! I’ve sent you an email seperately regarding the freeway document that came with WebYep package. Let me know if you got that?
I’ve just created two test pages for WebYep menu. I still haven’t been able to solve the issue with the bullets. Neither seems to take away the bullets automatically.
I have two examples: The first was created with the WebYep Menu css styler
The second with the tutorial from the WebYep manual.
i know this problem …
try this:
create a textstyle like “.WebYepMenueItem” (put the text with point at the beginning(!) in the tag field, name field keep empty).
click extended and create pair of name:value, like:
list-style:none
you can add more values, for example line-height, color …

Aah thanks so much for that Dieter! That’s fantastic. I’ve added this and it’s all working fine now. Brilliant.
Hi Mog and Dieter
I have just seen this thread again… and to be honest I cant see what you are doing unless you are writing the styles by hand…
The WebYep Menu Styler means you dont write any styles… it’s all done for you within the action palette its like the Freeway menu action… in other words it writes the correct styles in the correct order in the head of the html doc.
Which version of the webyep actions are you using is it version 3.0 or 2. ?
If you are using version 2 then I did send out an email for a free upgrade for anyone who has bought the actions in the past. Let me know which versions you are on
cheers max
Just want to check you got my email with the freeway document I was working on to show what I was doing. And also if it was possible to send me the freeway document that I am assuming should come with the WebYep manual? I have the files and folders but not the actual freeway document that you mention in the tutorial.
I did try the using the CSS Menu Styler action but it didn’t automatically get rid of the bullets. I reverted to the tutorial in the manual with Dieter’s suggestion “list-style” (none) in the Extended section which worked fine.
Another thing I noticed is the menu action item, whether on its own or inserted inside another html item, always shifts everything to the right about 100px. Not sure how to change this and so I have to do a bit of guess work on placing the item to make it go in the right place when it’s uploaded. Hope that makes sense.

Here is a test page using the WepYep CSS Menu Styler (with list-style:none added to remove the bullets as it wouldn’t do it otherwise) However the CSS styles are completely different to the ones I chose for this test page in the menu styler in my freeway document.
Here is another test page without adding “list-style:none” to the extended section. I have also deleted .WepYepMenuItem from the stylesheet. The bullets are back and the menu is still not taking on the styling from the CSS Menu Styler
i could send the same screenshot (see: http://www.dddserver.net/webyep/test.php ): the css menue styler applied with no effect. one difference: this page action is in dutch, very hard to understand for me as german (google translater helped…). bullet-points not disabled (via style/extended…)
there is no list-style in this styling-action to activate or choose (none, ident, points …) - so why it should work?
underlining has to be removed by the inspector …
Hi mog
Rename the menu item in the inspector palette from item5
to MyMenu
thats it, all the styles will then kick in.
If you look at the action palette you will see at the top that there is a Note with an astris saying what the layer has to be named for the styles to take effect
all the best max
