I just noticed that i double copied the contents of models/menu.py. I am
posting the proper menu.py content. The behavior is the same as i described
it before, it was NOT WORKING like it did on my windows machine. NOT EVEN
the top level menus showed up in the black bar. HOWEVER, a Horizontally
Striped Box appeared to the right of the Login menu. When i clicked on that
Horizontally Striped Box, the entire menu appeared vertically, in a
vertically expanded black bar that was about 2 inches from top to bottom.
Here is the proper menu.py content that caused the behavior i just
described.
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
response.title = ' '.join(word.capitalize() for word in request.application.
split('_'))
response.subtitle = T('Stock Forms for Web2py')
## read more at http://dev.w3.org/html5/markup/meta.name.html
response.meta.author = 'you <[email protected]>'
response.meta.description = 'Stock Forms for Web2py'
response.meta.keywords = 'web2py, python, framework'
response.meta.generator = 'Web2py Web Framework'
## your http://google.com/analytics id
response.google_analytics_id = None
response.menu = [
(T('Home'), False, URL('default','index'), []),
(T('ContactUs'), False, URL('default','index'), [
(T('CU-00'), False, URL('default','update_t_contactus00'), []),
]),
(T('Appointment'), False, URL('default','index'), [
(T('APP-00'), False, URL('default','update_t_appointment00'), []),
]),
]
Thanks again.
Love and peace,
Joe
