Hello

I have attached an image of a menu for a cafe that I would like to include in a website I have been asked to do.

I would like it to be responsive and set out the same as the image.

Your help will be appreciated.

Cheers

I don't know if this works directly with WebSite X5, but with HTML and CSS.

It's called Dot leaders, see instructions

Daniel has provided links to the best way, but if you want a quick solution without coding you could do a screen grab of your menu as displayed, save the menu portion as a jpeg and place it as an image. On a mobile it may be smallish, but the user could zoom to read it.

It didn't work with the above code, hence the 2nd code from here

This looks brilliant, but have not done a lot of coding so hope you don't minf me being a bit dumb here but - does this part go in the "before closing head properties" on the page:

And then this go in the HTML Code section on the page where I want the menu to go:

<div>
<ul class="toc">
<li> Salmon Ravioli 7,95
Euro </li>
<li> Frittierte Calamari 9,95 Euro </li>
<li> Almond Garnelen Cocktail 7,95 Euro </li>
<li> Bruschetta 5,25
Euro </li>
<li> Margherita Pizza 10,95 Euro </li>
</ul>
</div>

If so where and how would I put a menu item with description like this please,

BEEF & BACON BURGER..................................$26.00
120gm Beef Pattie with Bacon, Cheese, Pickles, Slaw & Our Special Burger Sauce. Served with Triple Cooked Chips & Tomato Sauce - NF

Thank you for being so helpful and I am really appreciating your help. You can view the site I am making at this address to get an idea of what I am on about: http://passengers.pagans.nz/

Kind regards

Ross

I have revised my linked page >> https://findelinks.de/dot-leaders.html (Press F5)

In WebSite X5, this code on my website is placed in an HTML code object at point 4 pages.

In the inserted code, enter the names of the dishes and the price in these areas. If necessary, copy the small snippets of code for dish and price and just paste them underneath.

---------------

<li>
Salmon Ravioli 7,95 Euro
</li>

---------------

In the inserted code, enter the names of the dishes and the price (see bold text above). If necessary, copy the small snippets of code (see above) for dish and price and just paste them underneath.

--------


<li>
Spaghetti alla carbonara 14,95 Euro
</li>


<li>
Lasagne 12,95 Euro
</li>

Perhaps Incomedia will provide an additional object for such menus. There is most likely a need for this type of menu on restaurant websites.

If Incomedia does not offer such an additional object or only for money, then you can also create this type of menu relatively easily with the code from my website.

If the menu should look exactly like the screenshot, i.e. text lines with dots and text lines without dots and with subheadings, then a CSS professional has to do it.

My knowledge of CSS is minimal and only good enough for small changes to existing CSS code.

Thanks from me.

I would like to include the code on my website. Should I put a link or a name on my website as an attribution to the author, other than the link to the forum post.

I'm planning to add a section on Website X5 to my website to help beginners. In addition to brief information and links, there should also be small code parts to expand missing functions.

My e-mail address is in the imprint of FindeLinks.de.

No attribution is needed for code like this.

You could mark the post you find "Useful" with a thumbs-up.
