Special menu items is a Drupal module that provides placeholder and separator menu items.
A placeholder is a menu item which is not a link. It is useful with dynamic drop down menus where we want to have a parent menu item which is not linking to a page but just acting as a parent grouping some menu items below it.
A separator menu item is something like "-------" which is not linking anywhere but merely a mean to structure menus and "separate" menu items visually.
Menu item container provide similar functionality.
Features
- User can create a new menu item and place either "nolink" or "separator" to the Path field, without quotes.
- When the menu is rendered the "nolink" item will be rendered similar to a normal menu link
item but there will be no link just the title. Since version 1.3 you can change HTML tag used for menu item. - When the menu is rendered the "separator" item will be rendered to an item which is no link
and by default title will be "-------". Since version 1.3 it is possible to change both HTML tag and title. - Breadcrumb of "nolink" will be rendered same as "nolink" menu item.
- CSS class "nolink" is added to "nolink" menu item.
- CSS class "separator" is added to "separator" menu item.
D7
The D7 code is way more cleaner. I will not works on the D6 version but I can review and commit patchs. If someone want to port the D7 way in D6 is more than welcome :).
