Embed a menu inside a page

Hi, I have a menu in my home and one voice points to a custom HTML page. I'd like to insert in this page a menu, how can I do this?

Do you want to use a button on a page or do you want to link your custom html page to a tab button? If you could clarify the question I am sure you will be helped.

The first. I'd like to have one (or more) buttons in my HTML page that shows different contents. Thanks

Create a screen of type menu (buttons) and then add your custom html page to that as the first button. If you are not using tabbed buttons, then link Home Screen Nickname under the Home Screen (non-tabbed layout) to your button menu screen. Does that make sense?

In this case I have a menu that points to a page, if I've understood. What I need is a page with a menu inside! And what if I'm using tabbed layout?

The button will appear on a page, honest You cannot add text on the page, but you can add a background image or change teh colour. It's almost the same for tabbed layouts. Give it a try and let us know how you get on.

Am I right in saying you want to have some text, with a menu below it? You could achieve this by typing up your text, save it as an image, and uploading the text image as the header image of the menu. // J

Sorry for the duplicated answer! What I need is something different: do you know the accordion effect you can get with JavaScript? Something similar.... I try to do an example, pretend that this is my HTML page .... Silk Cotton Denim ..... I want these voices as bottoms so when I click one, it shows me some content in the page or in a different page (that's quite the same for my purpose).

I am not sure what you mean by voices & bottoms, but what has been suggested to you will give you a page, with a menu button on it and when you click on that button, it takes you to a different page, with the content. If you want three buttons on a page (One for silk, one for Cotton, one for Denim), this approach will work too. Have you tried it yet?

Yeah, I don't think combining a menu + content is yet possible with BT. But I could be wrong!

You can do it with the content as a background of the menu. but otherwise i wouldn't have a clue.
