Colorful tab menus Posted by vuluganck | at Thursday, May 28, 2009

Hello everybody , today I will publish the next type of menu-Colorful Tab Menu.This is the 2nd kind of CSS menu with easy steps to add to your source template.

The previous version is Colorful Stock Menu, you can put the stock menu on right or left column,but I think you still need a menu on top of your template.


I bring you 11 kinds of tab menu with different color but adding code is the same, so I just guide you 3 kinds of menu for example, so the 8 other menus, you just have to follow this example to add by yourself.

*Important Note:

The red code :That's the image URL , you will get them in the file you have downloaded above,just open that file , upload it to your favorite image host then paste the URL link instead the red code, if you don't add the image URL, it will be worked

The pink code: That's the name of every style, if you use style B, change all the id into tabsB, if you want to use style F, change to tabsF, you have to change exactly if you want it to work.
