Is there a way to adjust menu width?

Post by kballar3 »

Is there a way to adjust menu width? I added spaces at the end of the description but when I published my site the menu is only as big as the text. Have I missed a setting?
Thanks,
Chris

Found Out How

OK, found out how to do this. Just place &nbsp after your text for the number of spaces you need to make the menu the right width. Example menu text would be:

Code: Select all

Basketball&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp
Thanks,

OK, thanks.

What I have works, but I'm sure it's a case of the browsers handling sloppy HTML. I don't really work with HTML directly that much so I appreciate your help.

Menu Width

Post by kballar3 »

Button Size has no affect on the width of the drop down menu; It only affects buttons.

The menu is based on the longest text you have for a description. At first I just added spaces at the end of my menu description. But HTML will automatically truncate those spaces. Instead you have to use a non-breaking space which is  

I didn't realize this at first.
