Hi Norman
Many thanks for your help with installing NorList on
http://www.needlesports.com. Is it possible to install the Actinic menu on pages outside of the catalog and brochure, such as the home page?

Only by manually copying / pasting the NorList code from an Actinic page. And you'd have to redo this if your section structure changed.
Here's how to (untested) try this:
Look in the source of a generated page for the </head> line. There should be a lump of code above that like
Code: Select all
<script type="text/javascript" src="fsmenu.js"></script><link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" id="norlistmenu" href="listmenu_b.css" /><link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" id="fsmenu-fallback" href="listmenu_fallback.css" />
Copy that to above the </head> line in your own page. You'll have to adjust the src="..." and href="..." to point to your acatalog folder.
Now look for the block
Code: Select all
<ul class="menulist" id="listMenuRoot">
.
.
.
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript" src="listmenuactivate.js"></script>
Copy / paste that lot to a temporary file. You'll again have to change the src="listmenuactivate.js" to point to your acatalog directory.
The big change is to do a global search / replace on the above text and replace all E.g.
<a href='Shoes.html'>
with
<a href='pathtoacatalog/Shoes.html'>
Now copy the temp file into your page where you want the menu.
NB all untested.

Wow! I'm amazed it worked first time. I was just outlining the steps I though would do it.
Anyway, as you see, the menu is just an UL list. So you could easily add your own items into it if you wanted to extend the navigation.
