Hi Amelia, Can you show me the code you currently use in your Milonic menu to open the caf=E9 menu? (Opening a menu from a menu... sounds a little nested doesn't it?). Since it's a .pdf, I'm assuming that you have a menu item that's something like "This week's menu" that opens the .pdf file in a new window, but I'd like to know for sure before I tell you what I have in mind.

There are 4 menus, week 1 through week 4; for now I manually change the file name on Friday afternoon to the corresponding menu for that week, for example, 'caf=E9_week1.pdf and then that menu would remain active on our Intranet until the following Friday when I would change the file name again to caf=E9_week2.pdf Our food services dept. created the menus in Excel, but I just saved to pdf. Initially I converted to HTML but then PDF seemed to work out a lot better overall. Would you like to see one of our menus? I would like to show you our Intranet site too, but since it is local, what I could do is send you a couple screen shots if you like, but let me know what file format you prefer. Let me know you your thoughts. Again, I appreciate your help. Thanks.

You have four menus, and you change them every Friday. Does that mean that the menu is different on Friday than it was the previous day (Thursday), or do you change it at the end of the day so that, from a visitor's point of view, the selection changes every Saturday morning? Or do I have it all screwed up?

I would like to do this from the Milonic DHTML menu and currently I have to manually change a file name every Friday (cafe_week1.pdf through caf=E9_week4.pdf). I used the following to display a seasonal graphic on our home page independent from the DHTML menu. Do you think I could use something similar from within menu_array.js ???? <script> <!-- <!--Script will display a different seasonal graphic each month--> var janimg=3D"images/janimg.jpg" var febimg=3D"images/febimg.jpg" var marimg=3D"images/marimg.gif" var aprimg=3D"images/aprimg.jpg" var mayimg=3D"images/mayimg.jpg" var junimg=3D"images/junimg.gif" var julimg=3D"images/julimg.jpg" var augimg=3D"images/augimg.gif" var sepimg=3D"images/sepimg.gif"=20 var octimg=3D"images/octimg.jpg" var novimg=3D"images/novimg.jpg" var decimg=3D"images/decimg.jpg" var mydate=3Dnew Date() var currentmonth=3Dmydate.getMonth() //document.write(currentmonth) if (currentmonth=3D=3D0) document.write('<img src=3D"'+janimg+'">') else if (currentmonth=3D=3D1) document.write('<img src=3D"'+febimg+'">') else if (currentmonth=3D=3D2) document.write('<img src=3D"'+marimg+'">') else if (currentmonth=3D=3D3) document.write('<img src=3D"'+aprimg+'">') else if (currentmonth=3D=3D4) document.write('<img src=3D"'+mayimg+'">') else if (currentmonth=3D=3D5) document.write('<img src=3D"'+junimg+'">') else if (currentmonth=3D=3D6) document.write('<img src=3D"'+julimg+'">') else if (currentmonth=3D=3D7) document.write('<img src=3D"'+augimg+'">') else if (currentmonth=3D=3D8) document.write('<img src=3D"'+sepimg+'">') else if (currentmonth=3D=3D9) document.write('<img src=3D"'+octimg+'">') else if (currentmonth=3D=3D10) document.write('<img src=3D"'+novimg+'">') else if (currentmonth=3D=3D11) document.write('<img src=3D"'+decimg+'">') //--> </script> Thanks.

However, the new window comes up with buttonbar, statusbar, menubar, etc. What I really need is a new window without all that -- and it would be good to set the size and location, too -- just like I can do with JavaScript:window.open(url, name, parameters). However, the DHTML menu seems to not be accepting JavaScript in the URL parameter. Is there a way around this? Thanks, Greg __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? SBC Yahoo!
