I’ve tried accessing the .CSS under Menu/Mega, Templates, layout, and all other I know. All I could do was to change the colors ‘Collectively’ instead of individually. (Yes I know there are menu# for each item but that doesn’t work for JA Halite. :confused:

What am I missing guys, I really need some help in here.

Thank you for your help,

Each menu item in Joomla is given a unique ID. So the html for the mega menu in Halite would look like….

<li class=”mega first”><a title=”What’s New In 1.5?” id=”menu479″ class=”mega first” href=”/ja_halite/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=22&Itemid=479″><span class=”menu-title”>What’s New In 1.5?</span></a></li>

Now if we take the ID (id=”menu479″) and apply it to our template.css….

#menu479 {background: #ff00ff}

We now have a single colour for a single menu item.

You just have to have a look at the source code for your menu and grab the menu ID’s. Then put them in your css like….

#menu479 {background: #002255}
#menu32 {background: #ff0066}
#menu211 {background: #ff2298}
#menu456 {background: #124444}
#menu479 {background: #eeeeee}
#menu481 {background: #00000}

Edit: Just read your post again and it seems you know this already. It does work. You must have made a mistake when you tried it.

Thanks Scotty, you’re amazing. I’ve also read a lot from your article about Cufon when I first started this. Thank you so much.

Good reply from Scotty there. One of the great things about this forum is that custom modifications such as that are often provided. In my mind this is a custom mod and not a feature of the standard template as it stands, To that end I am not suprised that the request was not forthcoming from JA. Support means just that, getting your template running and quite rightly should not go any further.

That is where great supporters come into play. Sometimes though you just have to bite the bullet and get a freelancer to do the custom work.

Good luck with your site and please show off your finished work.
