In reply to: Horizontal menu with sub-categoriesyeah. On the other hand, something like 90+something percent of potential visitors don’t know what they don’t see.
Consider giving them a hint (like, “you would have a menu if you would use a standard-compliant browser”)…

In reply to: Plugins not recognized?Hi
Sorry for delaying… (those weekends tend to surprise one every unsuspected once and then ; ))
I was going to try briansthreadedcomments.php and iimage-browser. Since documentation to both of them is a bit scarce, I just throwed their respective downloaded folder-contents into /wp-content/plugins/ (next to the default ones (hello, markdown and textile), so this folder is populated with:
* briansthreadedcomments.php
* hello.php
* iimage-browser-plugin.php
* iimage-browser.php
* markdown.php
* textile1.phpI throwed them into the folder _after_ the upgrade. As far as I can see, there is just this one folder wp-content, so my guess is that the location should be correct.
I’ll go and check whether I had downloaded from an unofficial or something site (question of format etc.) but I think this should neither be the issue.
Thanks already

In reply to: Localisation of the new “default” (aka kubrick) theme?Hey, thanks for replying so fast!
Other question: I began to work on my own de.mo yesterday, using “LocFactory Editor” (well, yes, I use OS X… http://www.locfactory.com/ ), but I’m not quite sure wether I’ll be able to, er, “compile” the file to become a valid de.mo file… The howto about translating/generating .pot to .mo was a bit too geeky for my old and used grey matter…
If anybody has some hints and the like about this (maybe even OS X related?), thanks in advance!
(Sidenote: Is there, could there be an online service to which one can upload his .pot file, and the server there delivers a .mo-file on the fly? I’ll have to talk to my sysop, maybe he would like somesuch…)

In reply to: Horizontal menu with sub-categoriesI may be wrong but overhere, I hadn’t much troubles with it…
Starting from the default kubrick-theme, which makes the menu out of nested UL, begin with the following adjustments in the CSS (I’ll just add to the existing rules), and tweak to make it look as you need:/* make a horizontal menu with vertical submenus */
#sidebar li {float: left;}
#sidebar li li {float: none;}/* make it a drop-down-menu */
#sidebar li ul {display: none;}
#sidebar li:hover ul {display: block;}As far as I know, this is not MSIE compliant (how could it, straight-forward as it is? MSIE seems to always need some additional techniques to efficiently waste our time), but at ALA ( http://www.alistapart.com/articles/dropdowns/ ) you’ll find a more or less simple solution to it…
