Code for "sexy drop down nav bar"

I've gotten the code for login/logout/register to work with this navbar but unfortunatly I'm having troubles with the No new messages/new messages html code.
there is this for the original one

Code:

<td align="{MENU_POSITION}"{MENU_NOWRAP}>{GENERATED_NAV_BAR}</td>

but what I'm looking for is where its would change on the navbar when a new message is sent

Note: Dropdown navbar

            <li>
                <a href="#">Client</a>

                <ul class="subnav">
                    <li><a href="RemovedLink">Webclient</a></li>
                    <li><a href="RemovedLink">Desktop Client</a></li>
                   

                </ul>
            </li>
                            <li><a href="/h3-RemovedName-shop">Shop</a></li>
                            <li><a href="#">Vote</a></li>
            <li><a href="/memberlist">Members</a></li>
                            <li><a href="/groups">Groups</a></li>
                            <li><a href="/profile?mode=editprofile">Profile</a></li>
            <li><a href="/privmsg?folder=inbox">Message</a></li>
                            <!-- BEGIN switch_user_logged_in -->
<li class="topmenu"><a class="topmenu" href="{U_LOGIN_LOGOUT}"<img src="" width="12" height="13" border="0" alt="{L_LOGIN_LOGOUT}" hspace="3" align="right" />Logout</a></li>
<!-- END switch_user_logged_in -->
<!-- BEGIN switch_user_logged_out -->
<li class="topmenu"><a class="topmenu" href="{U_REGISTER}"<img src="" alt="{L_REGISTER}" width="12" height="13" hspace="3" align="right" border="0" />{L_REGISTER}</a></li>
<!-- END switch_user_logged_out -->
          </ul>


This is the html nav bar
I want to fix <li><a href="/privmsg?folder=inbox">Message</a></li>

so that it shows when there is a new message in inbox and when there is not one

I removed the links most of the navbar so its not advertisement as the forum is not ready yet :s

You are allowed to provide a link as long as it is providing a visual to the support for you. If it is something simple like "Hey how do I change the main font color, heres my link" because everyone in support and more know how to change the main font color without looking at their site.

Honestly though, it may be nice to be able to actually look at what we are working with.

CSS wise though I believe the message ID is

#i_icon_mini_message
#i_icon_mini_new_message

I removed the generated navbar with the tutorial to add the drop down nav bar. I managed to find a code that allowed for the login/logout/register feature on google where it would hide when they're logged in the "login and register button" and show the logout button and visversa what I'm asking now is for something to show on the new nav bar (not fourmotion generated) but html to show when there is a new pm/no pm I remember messing with these codes on forumotion like a year ago when the old system was doing the coding when people where removing the footer, etc. I know its out there but not sure how its done the old way regarding the old navigation style code which is what I'm looking for.

Bump..
I also interesting for that..

What do you mean with..

?

So, how to hide it?

And where we must put the dropdown menu codes if we may not replace {GENERATED_NAVBAR} ?

Yes.. I know we don't replace Generated navbar but in this tutorial -> http://www.csshelp.net/t225-sexy-drop-down-menu-with-jquery-css-punbb-and-phpbb2
we have to replace it..
Look at my testing forum -> http://test.homediscussion.net/
I don't get the dropdown menu..
Help?

Bump.. Any help?

The script you added doesn't load properly http://near-reality123123123.webs.com/bar.js
Try taking it out of overall_header and adding it in JS managment marking all pages. When I try it from a console drop down loads next to CLIENT navigation as Web Client and Desctop client so it should work.

So, I add this script in JS Management

Code:

$(document).ready(function(){ 
 
    $("ul.subnav").parent().append("<span></span>"); //Only shows drop down trigger when js is enabled (Adds empty span tag after ul.subnav*) 
 
    $("ul.topnav li span").click(function() { //When trigger is clicked... 
 
        //Following events are applied to the subnav itself (moving subnav up and down) 
        $(this).parent().find("ul.subnav").slideDown('fast').show(); //Drop down the subnav on click 
 
        $(this).parent().hover(function() { 
        }, function(){ 
            $(this).parent().find("ul.subnav").slideUp('slow'); //When the mouse hovers out of the subnav, move it back up 
        }); 
 
        //Following events are applied to the trigger (Hover events for the trigger) 
        }).hover(function() { 
            $(this).addClass("subhover"); //On hover over, add class "subhover" 
        }, function(){  //On Hover Out 
            $(this).removeClass("subhover"); //On hover out, remove class "subhover" 
    }); 
 
});

And I get the Dropdown menu..
Thanks a lot, Nera..

Welcome.
