- Replace the # symbols everywhere with respective page links
- Replace the bolded black texts with Page Titles
- To create a sub slidemenu inside a Main Menu link simply add a rel attribute like rel="ddsubmenuside1Change the drop down number of slidemenu accordingly.
- Normal HTML li and ul rules apply here to create sub slidemenu and sub sub slidemenu links.
- Main links are mentioned first and sub slidemenu links are mentioned separately after the JavaScript call function.
- To change the background colour of menu edit #F2F2F2
- To change the width, background color and font color of the sub slidemenu edit respectively #FFFFE0 , #000000 and 170px
- To change background colour and font colour in mouse hover mode edit #ffffff and #000000
