CSS Menu's

Post by kalius »

Hello:

  I have decided to give this cms a try since it looks like it fits my needs, uses css, and its simple to use.

  I wish to have some nested menu's that work like this:

    top layer menu, sections of my website. Horizontal menu
    second layer menu, horizontal menu subsections.  A subsection menu is only shown when the user is in the section

    3rd menu is a vertical menu for the subsection only shown when the user is in that subsection.

Its similar to amazon menu structure.

Can I do this with this CMS? Modules or customizations needed?

Thanks in advance

if you can create the menu structure with static html/css, it shoudn't be too much of a problem translating it into a plugin. have a look at the dhtmlmenu plugin; it should give you some ideas.

Has/will anyone ever come up woth a dhtmlmenu replacement that is accessible? My organisation will probably even fund the damn thing.

There are plenty of WAI-compliant bullet lists out there which rely on CSS for functionality. I don't unerstand why Javascript or DHTML are needed. Couldn't PHP perform any info-gathering tasks server-side??

Hell, I might even have to resort to tryign it myself. :)

Have you looked at the EllNav module?  I have not used it myself, but I think it is close to what you want to achieve.
