Hi all,

I'm looking for a way to add menu tabs like http://www.post.be/site/nl/residential/letters-cards/send/index.html . This website has 2 sub tab layers, but I only need one. Is this a matter of theming or are there modules for that? I've looked but could not find anything yet.

Thanks in advance.
Danny

Have you tried adding primary and secondary link entries in the menu system, and then styling those regions? That would be a good place to start.

Hmm, but I kinda want the first menu to trigger a row of submenu entries with ajax. So the first tabs dont have content, they just trigger the second row of menu options. Maybe my view on this is wrong. Maybe I just need a list of tabs that all refer to different menu types/content. I had the idea that the tabs had to be menu's them self, but maybe that's a wrong approach. I'll figure it out further...

Thanks for your suggestions.

Hmm, i know i'm being confusing here, but what i need is something like nice_menu's but then horizontally. And the 'drop down menu' should not disappear on a 'mouseout'. I'll check if nice menu's is tweakable.

The fourseasons theme has menus like that-- maybe you can take the styling and code from there.

Edit:
I think the framework theme has menus like that as well.

That's amazing. I feel that you know every little corner here on drupal.org. Your knowledge is incredible. :)

I'll take a look at them. These are exactly what I need.

Thanks very much.
Cheers,
Danny

hmm, interesting.

I looked at the html of the framework them and I saw that the menu's had classes that were called 'dynamic-persistent-menu'. I googled that and I foud this Drupal project: http://drupal.org/project/dynamic_persistent_menu . This is exactly what I need. I can't believe I didn't find that after an hour of searching. Of course, why didn't I think of googling 'dynamic persistant menu' before? :)

Thanks very much!!
Cheers,
Danny

on a sidenote: I've never seen a theme with an existing module embedded in it before...

on another sidenote: It's the closed to what I need, but it looks like it has quite some flaws and it's not highly maintained.
