Can I add a row of horizontal menu items to my vert 1 col template

I have my template all set the way I want it (css vert 1 col) and would like to add a menu row horizontal to the top of the page under my flash heading. Is this easier to just add to my current template, or redo the template that already has it in with my heading and other settings?

Thanks

add another div and put a menu in it like so...  using  you can use the standard horiz. menu style sheet even if you only have one level....

{cms_module module='menumanager' template='nameoftemplate' number_of_levels="1" items="home,rounded,squared,galleries,contact"}

template can be standard or custom... if you use a custom menu template and are using the default menu horiz CSS  be sure to name your ul to get the calls in the CSS to work...

taken from the Menu Manager Help....    RTM

# (optional) start_page="home" - Starts the menu displaying at the given start_page and showing that element and it's children only. Takes a page alias.
# (optional) start_element="1.2" - Starts the menu displaying at the given start_element and showing that element and it's children only. Takes a hierarchy position (e.g. 5.1.2).
# (optional) start_level="2" - This option will have the menu only display items starting a the given level. An easy example would be if you had one menu on the page with number_of_levels='1'. Then as a second menu, you have start_level='2'. Now, your second menu will show items based on what is selected in the first menu.
# (optional) show_root_siblings="1" - This option only becomes useful if start_element or start_page are used. It basically will display the siblings along side of the selected start_page/element.
# (optional) number_of_levels="1" - This setting will only allow the menu to only display a certain number of levels deep.
# (optional) items="contact,home" - Use this item to select a list of pages that this menu should display. The value should be a list of page aliases separated with commas.
# (optional) collapse="1" - Turn on (set to 1) to have the menu hide items not related to the current selected page.
