Tabbed menus and dynamic logins

lalindra - January 4, 2009 - 08:19

Hi guys,

I'm new to drupal and I have two questions.

How do you create a two level tabbed menu system ( like in amatomu ). Can anyone direct me to a good article on how to do this?

How do you create a popup login form? In other words, when the user clicks the login button, I need to appear it in a lightbox kind of form over the page rather than going into a separate page. I tried the popup API. But it wasn't convincing enough plus it seemed to take a lot of time to render the overlaying form.

Thanks in advance.

Hi lalindra - This article

Hi lalindra -

This article should show you how to create the illusion of tabs with CSS, which is how that site does it: CSS Tabs menu

There's a screencast on Drupal Dojo on how to use Thickbox to put your login form into a lightbox-y popup, as you describe. Check it out: Show login block using jQuery modal window.

Thanks mndonx

Thanks for those links. I think they answer my issue exactly.

Have you tried the quicktabs

Have you tried the quicktabs module (http://drupal.org/project/quicktabs)?
