Hi,

first of all, nice module!

I do have a little question. When I use the Dynamic tree menu, it does not display correctly (I think...).

I will explain with an example.

Let's say you have the following taxonomy:
Continent A
- Country 1
-- AAA
- Country 2
-- BBB
Continent B
- Country 3

When I for example drill down on 'Continent A' in my dynamic tree menu, I will see that 'country 1' and 'country 2' are under 'Continent A' but I will also see that 'Conintent B' is placed on the same level as the countries under 'continent A'. And when I drill down on 'Country 2', 'Continent B' is placed on the same level as 'AAA'.

Is this supposed to be like this?
I yes, I don't get what the additional advantage is...

Thank you in advance!

The avoid misunderstandings: The 'AAA' I mentioned should be 'BBB'.

Could you please look through the HTML output (eg in Firebug) to confirm whether this is a HTML nesting problem or a CSS theming problem. If it is HTML related, could you post a snippet of the output here to highlight the actual problem.

The dynamic menu was probably the most complex part of the Drupal 5 module - there is a good chance there are new bugs lurking in there since the Drupal 6 rewrite. It hasn't had a lot of testing so far.

Styro,

thanks for your answer.

First of all: these more technical things are new for me so I hope I am answering well. Anyway, I learn stuff so that's good.
I think it is a nesting problem. See the attached printscreen in the zip file. (If you want me to put it differently here, please tell me)

If hope this answer is sufficient....

Hi Styro,

I installed the latest update for taxonomy filter.
The following has changed:

- The hierarchy has disappeared in the dynamic tree menu. So for a hierarchy, all the terms are now put on the same level (flat instead of a tree menu).
For a large taxonomy it would be more convenient to stick to the 'tree'.

I don't know if this was ment to be? Just to let you know.

Kerel: Try tonight's dev release (although I have not changed the dynamic tree menu code). I have made changes to base, tf_count, tf_multi, and tf_cloud. Next on my agenda will be the other two templates: dynamic and context. Maybe you can help test it out. Do you have a demo site I could look at?

Hi solotandem,

I am more than happy to do this testing. I will download the dev release tonight (I hope).
Problem is I do not have a demo site online... Will take some time to do this but is there another way of showing results in the meanwhile?
I will already post (as soon as I downl the new dev release) an attachment with all my findings that I think are worth mentioning.

Kerel: Tomorrow's dev release (dated May 17) will include the context and dynamic menu templates. Download it and test the dynamic menu. Thanks for your help.

Yes I noticed the templates were not in the previous dev version yet. I will download it one of the following days, do a test and put my findings here.

At first sight it looks perfect. The problem I mentioned before has been solved so that is a good thing.
And other things I tried also work.

I have not yet tested everything that can be tested but I will do that asap...

Good work!
