| 29 |
'drop down menu' configlet form. Now, to add submenu to the certain |
|---|
| 30 |
menu item, you need to add unordered list inside of top level menu |
|---|
| 31 |
item ('<li>...</li>') after its title ('<a></a>'):: |

Sample menu with 2 submenus:: |
|---|
| 38 |
|
|---|
| 39 |
<li id="portaltab-index_html" class="plain"><a href="http://example.com/" accesskey="t">Home</a></li> |
|---|
| 40 |
<li id="portaltab-Members" class="plain"><a href="http://example.com/Members" accesskey="t">Members</a> |
|---|
| 41 |
<ul> |
|---|
| 42 |
<li><a href="http://example.com/Members/jdoe">John Doe</a><li> |
|---|
| 43 |
<li><a href="http://example.com/Members/mmajor">Mary Major</a><li> |
|---|
| 44 |
</ul> |
|---|
| 45 |
</li> |
|---|
| 46 |
<li id="portaltab-news" class="plain"><a href="http://example.com/news" accesskey="t">News</a></li> |
|---|
| 47 |
<li id="portaltab-events" class="plain"><a href="http://example.com/events" accesskey="t">Events</a> |
|---|
| 48 |
<ul> |
|---|
| 49 |
<li><a href="http://example.com/events/previous">Past Events</a><li> |
|---|
| 50 |
<li><a href="http://example.com/calendar">Calendar</a><li> |
|---|
| 51 |
</ul> |
|---|
| 52 |
</li> |
|---|
| 53 |
|
|---|
| 54 |
In this example we added submenus to our 'Members', and 'Events' tabs. |
|---|
| 55 |
|
|---|
| 56 |
|
|---|
| 57 |
You can click button on 'drop down menu' configlet form to reset menu. |
|---|
| 58 |
This can be usefull in case broken html of menu code. Generated code is based |
|---|
| 59 |
on status of 'Automatically generate tabs' in your 'Navigation settings' |
|---|
| 60 |
(in Plone 2.1+). However you will lose your previous code of menu with all submenus |
|---|
| 61 |
after click on 'regenerate menu'. |
|---|
| 62 |
|
|---|
| 63 |
If you want to 'regenerate menu' you should pay attention to status of |
|---|
| 64 |
'Automatically generate tabs' in your 'Navigation settings' (in Plone 2.1+). |
