Menu Images

By CliffLandin on 21 Jan 2007 at 00:03 UTC

I have made a couple of sites using Drupal, but haven't delved very deeply into theming. I am currently creating a theme for a static site that I built before I found the wonderful world of Drupal, and I was just wondering if there is a menu module that allows you to assign menu images with over states?

I have used the aceMenu system on another cms. Using that I was able to assign an image as the navigation image, say someimages.gif, and then it automagically assigned someimage_over.gif as the hover state. If there is something similar to that, my life will be golden.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

I'll take that as a "no". :(

I also need to use images for the menus on a project and found http://drupal.org/node/110199 for displaying an image in place of text for the menu item.

I do not see support for mouseovers in that solution (and I haven't had time to test yet). But, a combination of your aceMenu and the modification provided in the link above may do it.

I am leaning toward the solution provided in the link above as it will display text menu items if the item title is not an image tag. Therefore the standard navigation menu can be used for both the customer custom menu and the admin links in the standard navigation menu. Less configuration that way.

Let me know how your efforts work out as I am working to achieve similar menu functionality. Hopefuly, together, we can build a good solution.
