The issue of menus, sub-menu etc are graphical layout that can be customized by CSS and HTML. suppose we have the following menu: -------------------- | Items | ------------------- | New Item --------------- | List | ---------------------------------- | By catergory | -------------------- | By name | --------------------
The corresponding actions can be in one controller say, items_controller.rb. > I want the nav buttons of the main section and the sub-menu point to each > other, is this possible with rails partials ? > A partial in nothing but a device for breaking the rendering process into more manageable chunk. When you look at partials look at them as super-methods (super-functions) that can be used and reused in several places. So the issue of partials has somehow nothing to do with your navigation buttons. Is there any tutorial for sub-menus ? > I haven't searched for one, but that is a wake up call for me to create one for rails newbies!!
