How can I change my menu to new version??

I'm sorry but I totally don't understand. I created a menu with the online menu builder, and I would like to take advantage of the new possibility to target frames (open a link in new window). But I cannot understand how to update my existing menu.

What can I do to target new windows with my existing menu?

Thank you so much for your help!!

Currently Tigra Menu Online Builder generates configurations for Tigra Menu v1.0. You can target frames with that version without upgrading to v2.0.

After downloading your results from online menu builder downoad distribution package of Tigra Menu v1.0 (link to previous version is available on the product page). In the distribution package you'll find frames targeting demo. Replace menu.js in builder results with menu.js from frames targeting demo. Then open your menu_item.js and add third parameter (target) to each menu item. that's it.

Next version of Tigra Menu Online Builder will support Tigra Menu v2.0 and most of its features including frames targeting.

Thank you so much for your reply! Now the only problem remaining is - how exactly do I add the target to each menu item??

I know it's _blank, but do I have to add it somewhere specifically? For example:

["Bulletin Board", "http://www.terralink-horticulture.com/discus"_blank]
or
["Bulletin Board", "http://www.terralink-horticulture.com/discus_blank"]
or
["Bulletin Board", "http://www.terralink-horticulture.com/discus"] {_blank}

Or something like that...

Sorry, I am just a newbie!
Thanks for your help!

Ok, I found the right way to do it. It does work now, BUT MY MENU IS NOT THE SAME ANYMORE!!!!

I now have a vertical menu, diagonal, with overlapping submenus, no blue boxes, completely different.

How can I get the new version of TigraMenu WITHOUT distroying the work I already did???

Thank you!

Sorry sorry sorry!

I solved it. I did not use the right menu script (used the one from Demo5 instead of Frame).
Now it works!

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!

Which one is the right one to use. Demo 5 said it was for frame targetting, however I get the over lapping problem also. I'm not to familar with JS so, any help would be appreciated.

What do you mean by overlapping problem? Tigra Menu can't overlap frames borders only Tigra Menu GOLD can.

I found editing the menu.js file fixes this up
