We are trying to build a top navigation that displays a relevant menu in a sidebar block. For example if our top navigation was: "Animals", "Cars", "Foods" if the user clicked "Animals" the sidebar block would display a menu to the nodes "Monkeys", "Elephants", etc...

Any thought on how to go about this? Is this a theme thing or a module thing?

I totally used a title for a different forum topic I was drafting. Sorry about the unrelevant title.

2 ways

(1) you could use the PHP filter in a block that would create the necessary menu structure (from taxonomy, I suppose?).

(2) you could create each block with static text, and set them so that they only display when you want them to. This is not ideal, seeing as you will quickly end up with a huge number of blocks!

There may be other ways, but I do not know of any.
