ASP & MySql

I'm moving from the js files to a db driven menu. And I have a couple of questions.

Is there another way to sort the menu items. It seems to be sorted how the items are inputed. The only way I can change the sort is to export, change sql, delete table, and recreate table. I tried to edit the default.asp to sort (ORDER BY) itemid. But I cant get the query right. Here is the line (line 124 from default.asp) I am trying to edit:

Code:
query="select * from "&table_prefix&"items where menuid="&rs2("menuid")


Second Question
I have dotted borders. In the js version, I see dots in both IE & FF. In the db version, I see dots in just IE and not FF. Any ideas

JS version
DB version

Hi,

I can't answer about the sorting, but I think the border problem is a result of bordercolor="#"; I think FF needs a color specified? That's the only thing I notice that might do that.

Hi,

I just realized that a user posted an asp menu editor they created. Perhaps this is something you can use? I don't know anything about asp/php/mysql so not sure if this is something you can use.

Thanks for you help on this Ruth. Defining the bordercolor solved the firefox issue.

The asp files created didnt work for me... but I am still working on it.
