Nice! well done!

[christophe]

Hi Towfiq, sorry I’m not so capped I do not understant what to do…

Please be kind, where shall I input code in the line ?

(a blockquote code em strong ul ol li ?)

<li><a href="#"><span><img src="images/UK_sm.gif" alt="" border="0" /></span></a></li>

</div>

<!--Menu END--></div>

Regards – Christophe

I am not sure what you are trying to do… can you elaborate?

[christophe]

Yes of course :

I did add an entry on the menu to the English version of my site.

I did include a flag image, I linked the image to the english site, but :

First : I want to align verticaly the flag image on the text menu,

Second : I want to modify the CSS rolover effect under the flag (I want to remove the grey solid retangular only under the flag – I want to keep it for the rest of the text menu)

Is it possible and, easy ? – Regards – Chris

[Towfiq I.]

Try this:

<li class=no_bg><a href="#"><span><img src="images/UK_sm.gif" alt="" border="0" /></span></a></li>

</div>

<!--Menu END--></div>

and then add this line to your stylesheet:

.no_bg, .no_bg a, .no_bg span, .no_bg:hover, .no_bg a:hover, .no_bg span:hover{background:none!important;}

Ok I’ve tried, I must have made it wrong as long it does’nt works for now.

That’s what I made in the index menu :

<!--Menu Begin-->

<div id="menu">



<ul>

<li><a href="index.html"><span>Home</span></a></li>

<li><a href="equipe.html"><span>Equipe</span></a></li>

<li><a href="services.html"><span>Services

</span></a></li>

<li><a href="portfolio/portfolio.html"><span>Portfolio</span></a></li>

<li><a href="mailto:contact@mirabonnenouvelle.com"><span>Contact</span></a></li>

<li class=no_bg><a href="#"><span><img src="images/UK_sm.gif" alt="" border="0" /></span></a>

</ul>

</div>

<!--Menu END-->

AND I ADD, AT the very end of the CSS file a new line with a CSS class :

/*Template: Calliope

[Towfiq I.]

Try this css code(keep it exactly same):

#menu ul .no_bg, #menu ul .no_bg a, #menu ul .no_bg span, #menu ul .no_bg:hover, #menu ul .no_bg a:hover, #menu ul .no_bg span:hover{background:none!important;}
