Hello,

I'm looking for advice on how I might add in a menu structure to work like this site:

http://www.osceolalibrary.org/

The rollover image and menu display is very nice but I don't want to lose the ability to add new pages, etc.  I need to have them dynamically appear like the default cmsms menus.

Thank you,
Tim

The menu is using Mootools framework for the effect it shouldn't be to difficult to integrate but you would probably need to use page_attributes in the menu manager for a better control of classes and ids used in the menu.

You can find tutorials on how to build this in xhtml,css:
Mootools: http://davidwalsh.name/get-slick-mootools-kwicks
jQuery: http://www.alohatechsupport.net/webdesi ... query.html

The menumanager part, you will have to figure out.

Thanks for the feedback.  I'm going to try and work through it with the links you provided.

I'm not sure what to do for the menu integration to cmsms...

Thank you for the help.
