I'm needing to know if there is a site where I can go, to learn and understand how the .css and .js files work.
I need to figure out how to resize the menu bar and cascading menus's submenu's. Also need to resize the font and style.
I'm sure someone knows where the BEST place to go is located.
Thanks in advance.
HOTRODThis site isn't good enough?

If you post a link to your page or post your code, people will try to help you.I use Meyer's framed link to the CSS specs.

Javascript is much harder to find since AOL closed Netscape's Devedge site.Netscape's Devedge (<!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://web.archive.org/web/20040202034208/devedge.netscape.com/central/javascript/">http://web.archive.org/web/200402020342 ... avascript/</a><!-- m -->)

I know this is the place to go for help, it's fantastic the way people want to help others here in the forum.
I'm just needing to learn how to create javascript from the very beginning to the end and then debug, so I want be asking so many questions. I am a REAL beginner and need a tutorial on Javascript.
I've gotten a cascading menu from this site and am having trouble getting the Submenus to work (they are all over the place), after I finally get the menu bar located where I need it on my home page.
It a real mess, and I don't understand why this is happening.
It's obvious that I need to learn how to create them, instead of stealing them, so I can understand what is wrong.
I've asked for help in other postings, but it seems to be too much to ask on this subject, so I decided I need to learn first, then ask questions later, as I have them.
I'll try the suggestions, you've all given me.
Again, Thanks for your help.:)I'm needing a tutorial on Javascripting.
I'm trying to learn how to create and debug.
I'm hoping that the turorial will tell me what certain things are, and why they are used and for what purpose, like:
()
{ }
[ ]
+
.id
//
!
_ (underscore before a word)
><

What does this mean...
MenuItem.getboundingClientRect().right - tmp.offsetwidth - 15

OR
("highlight("+Items [j].id+")")

OR
menu.style.pixelTop = obj.getBoundingClientRect().top + obj.offsetHeight + Bdy.scrollTop

OR
window.defaultStatus = obj.title

and the word: eval

The script talks about Parent, childNodes and chilren and Pelements and elements...now that was and is confusing, but I am starting to understand what they are meaning....I think, but still need advice and help to make sure I understand.

Playing around with this, I've understood some of it and realize that some of it means that certain parts are grouped together as a section, I think, but I do need more information.
I've been able to figure out some of it, but just am not sure if I'm correct and what it acually does and why when I make changes, it really can screw up the rest of the menu's submenus, just things like that. I changed the text with larger words and that screwed up thigs too. I've tried to relocate the menu bar within my home page and messed up the Submenu locations, It's just all been a real mess to try and use the free script.

As you can see I am a REAL Beginner and need to learn a lot. I feel that if I can get some of these answers I'll be well on my way and maybe understand why I'm having such a problem with the menu I Download ed from this site.
I thought by downlaoding something that's is free and looks and works just as I need it too, would be perfect for my project, but it's turned out to be a nitemare instead.

If I could understand how to move the free script within my home page (using WebStudio 4.0) and it will stay together and work as it should, then that would be all I need at this time. WebStudio uses <div>'s and that seems to clash with the script location in some way, I think.

Thanks for any information on where to find a complete Tutorial that you can give me....or maybe you could just tell me what the symbols mean and how they work as a quick Tutorial, or maybe both.
