    SectionLists

    Hi,

    I am trying to create a product navigation menu down the left hand side of a site. I would like the menu to show all top level Sections, and then subsections of the current section. For example, when in the "Computer Hardware" section the menu will display as follows:

    ------------------------
    Computer Manuals
    ------------------------
    Computer Hardware
    ------------------------
    Accessories
    Graphics Cards
    Mother Boards
    Processors
    Hard Drives

    ------------------------
    Computer Software
    ------------------------


    I have created the following code which displays all top level sections, and all subsections. What i can't find from the help is a condition to "detect" the current section.

    Code:
    <actinic:block type="TopLevelSectionList" />
         <actinic:variable name="SectionName" /><br />
    
         <actinic:block type="ChildSectionList" />
              <actinic:variable name="SectionName" /><br />
         </actinic:block>
    </actinic:block>
    Any help appreciated!

    Thanks

    i'v previously tried this layout.

    hint: you'll need to use some php to build your navigation

    try searching the forum for 'navigation'

      This can be done inside v8 without PHP or any scripting http://www.eezytrade.co.uk/ (cos I don't have the knowledge to script )

        Hi jont

        How would you go about setting up the menus so that they are similar to eezytrade.co.uk from within v8?

        Cheers,

          unfortunately, eezytrade.co.uk use a similar menu however it is not quite what im after. I only want the subsections of the current section to be shown.

            David,

            Have you had a look at the Advanced Users Guide? Look for jump lists, this uses javascript.

            Kind regards,

                  That would be possible, again using only v8, the eezytrade site had relatively small number of 1st level subsections (hundreds of 2nd level subsections) so it was not required.
