Sure, I'll bundle it as part of the widgets module along with some code do handle the nitty-gritty of emitting the full menu and enabling superfish. Derek On Fri, Mar 20, 2009 at 9:30 AM, David Pollak feeder.of.the.be...@gmail.com wrote: On Fri, Mar 20, 2009 at 12:45 AM, Charles F. Munat

This is something that has been asked before, but I don't think there was anything out there. I think that this would be a really nice feature, particularly if it could leverage the existing jQuery stuff. IIRC, the built-in Menu snippet doesn't render children at all unless the parent is the

That would definitely be very useful! The more widgets the better! In the meantime, I'll use the navbar that I have right now, which is perfectly functional but not aesthetically what I'm going for. Thanks again for the help. -David On Mar 19, 12:04 pm, Derek Chen-Becker dchenbec...@gmail.com

You should take a look at Superfish: http://users.tpg.com.au/j_birch/plugins/superfish/ It's probably the best looking and slickest of the menu bars I've seen, and it can work horizontally or vertically. It's pretty accessible to persons with disabilities as it's basically implemented via

That's awesome. Are there restrictions that would prevent us from just including the superfish script file (and CSS) as part of a widget? It looks like it wants ULs anyways, which is what Lift already outputs. From what DPP said, it should be easy to dump the entire menu as a full UL (with
