Problem with a menu
Posted: Mon Jul 25, 2011 9:57 am
Hello all.
I have a slight problem with a menu system i am trying to build. Basically what i want it to look like is as follows

with the main menutext being display in the captial letters at the top and an extra attribute added to each page displayed below.
I am having troubles getting it to display thou.
For each page i have set an extra attribute for what i would like to be displayed below and this can be shown using the code {page_attr key="extra1"}
However when i try to add this into my custom menu all the links have the same smaller text. FOr which page u are on it displays that extra value on every page. like so

My menu code is
If i try to change <span>{page_attr key="extra1"}</span> to <span>{$node->page_attr key="extra1"}</span> nothing gets displayed
ANy help would be great !
