Description

Hi, I am new to Drupal and am trying to teach myself by doing a simple project.

I have a problem getting imagemenu to work. This is the flow that I followed:

installed Drupal 6.9
Downloaded module file and expanded on desktop
uploaded folder to sites/all/modules
accessed admin/modules from within drupal and activated imagemenu module
Accessed admin/site build/menus/imagemenu and created a menu made it vertical
added menu items and entered a text title, assigned images for both static and roll over states, inserted the path to the content pages and added alt text to each

Each menu item was enabled

I then assigned the imagemenu to the left sidebar block

The menu appears but only the alt text shows and not the images

Is there something that I am missing?

I have tried to look or admin/filters as thought I might need to set this... but cannot find

Are there any image modules that conflict with imagemenu?

Is there a readme file with detailed instructions how to use imagemenu?

Any help much appreciated.

I have a similar issue before. In my case, I used Drupal 6.8. I found I can see the imagemenu in IE, but not in firefox.....Later I found that it's because I've used sites\xxxx\files\images\image.png to specify the image path. I've changed the backslash to slash and the imagemenu shows in both IE and firefox. I tried this as inspired by http://drupal.org/node/362346. Since we can see the alt text but not the images, I think it's something wrong with the image path. You can try in this direction. Hope this helps.

Many thanks... I did adjust the path and I have managed to get it working.

However.... I have two separate imagemenus... with different names. However when I edit a menu item it will only allow me to place it on the other menu. So I have to rebuild the menu every time I change any element of the menu... strange.

Any ideas?
