Re: [Ejbca-develop] New navigation menu GUI for Administration

[David C. <dca...@li...>]

A Fx 3.0 user see roll-over effect, but not the box shadow.

I tried with light blue-gray, it's good idea but with red color text 
it's strange and not beautiful.

So, with a bright gray and a thin border, and the white background, the 
result is really good.
Please, you can see the sample in attachment.


When a function is selected, the frame menu isn't refreshed, and 
(currently, in the trunk) the information about current function 
selected is not present in the menu frame page.

Idea (for an new issue, if Tomas is ok with that):
- persist the current function displayed in the menu page,
- for example: by setting a class="current" on the current function <a> 
link,
- this is done probably with JavaScript,
- then, it's easy to write a CSS code for the effect wanted.


Best regards,

David
