Visual examples of navigation menus

Post by ozziejohn »

I'm a newbie to CMSMS and have started with 1.11.4 “Fernandina” to make my first http://www.rainbowtec.be website.

I rather like the shadow dropdown menu in the standard template "ShadowMenu Tab + 2 columns" that comes with the full installation, but I can't find how to use this type of menu navigation with my website structure.

Are there places which show visual representations of various menus with/without dropdowns and different visual effects and the associated code to do it?

Thanks for any help - I've been searching the CMSMS website and web for days, but getting nowhere fast :-(

If you open that template you will see...

{* Start Navigation, stylesheet "Navigation: ShadowMenu - Horizontal" *}
<div id="menu_vert">
<h2 class="accessibility">Navigation</h2>
{menu loadprops=0 template='cssmenu_ulshadow.tpl'}
<hr class="accessibility" />
</div>
{* End Navigation *}

So that means you need that menu tag in your page template and attach the Navigation: ShadowMenu - Horizontal to get the same look/menu...
