I have done this before.... and I am at a complete loss as how to do it again... I can't seem to get it to work now. Nothing fancy, stock menu system.
I have a menu item with two children.
It just won't expand. The only option I see is to click on expanded, and then it won't collapse.... I am just clicking in circles wondering if I need coffee or sleep.
All are linked to pages.
D6.10, Acquia Marina Theme
Thanks,

hook_menu or menu_alter()?
Without seeing exactly what you're doing:
If using hook_menu or alter you need to add 'collapsible' => true. I have found that with themer from the devel module enabled the menu systems behave oddly. I have seen them not expand. Also, is javascript enabled on your browser?

When Administration is closed, I click on it, it expands. If I then click on Create Content, admin collapses and Create Content expands.
No JS, no Modules, stock menu system
The menus I create in their own block... just don't want to do it.
Tried switching themes to no avail.
Turning off the admin/dev module did not seem to make a difference. But with those on the admin/create content menu items seem to work fine...
Odd.
:(
bug in version of core used?
you are using 6.10 and the latest is 6.12. Could it be a bug that has since been fixed?
I use the dhtml menu.module to avoid page refreshes on every menu item click so I can't be much help without setting up a test site.

I should start to explore those kind of menu modules myself.
Cheers.

I found a suggestion which seems to work.
I created the frame work for my site with the menu structure, almost like brainstorming and then created the content and linked the two. This DOES NOT WORK for collapsible menus for some reason.
I deleted it all created the menu items from the nodes themselves. This works.
Odd... but it seems to work.
