Title: css vertical flyout main menu
Post by: xmanhattan on September 14, 2009, 12:49:32

Hello all,

I am trying to create a css vertical flyout main menu for the main menu with transparency, if possible locally.

I have found the following code and am trying to apply it to EI Grey.

Any tips or suggestion?

See attached test html, remove the .txt.

Sorry, I tried to delete but couldn't.

Module IOS DV Menu is a partial solution.

This post can and probably should be moved to modules.

your biggest problem is that you need somehow to list subitems...

you can choose to modules>>main menu to expand menu and then try to apply that css code...

but since elxis(not only) prints all menus and all lists and all subitems(.subblevel) with the same  css class we have a problem...

that problem can be solved with a module , like dsmenu , which takes from the database the menus and submenus and prints the html at the proper way, depending in every case!

Ps. this is not a malfunction, bug or what ever...  all cms systems i know need an extension(module) to make dynamic menus

i would suggest to try to modify ds to fit your needs..
