Hey BJ
I just took a look at CategoryScreens.xml in the product subtree and it
looks to me like ofbiz is still using freemarker templates to render
screens. The only differences I see are the use of groovy instead of bash
and a new "link" element.
Am I missing something? I do not see that ftl has been "moved away from".

problem
if you look in products/widgets (trunk or 10.4) you will see the code
that generates screens and menus. also the data is martialed in the
groovy files, either called out in the Widget or in the web-inf/action
folder with the name of the ftl file, defined in the widget.
The look and feel of these screens are controlled by the code in the
themes folder.
so if you want to change functionality work with the widgets.
if you want you own look and feel then create a new theme.
hope that helps

I assume you are trying to work in the ofbiz patterns, so let you know
where to look in ofbiz.
headers are dealt with in themes.
however functinoality of forms and screens are dealt with in the
component/widgets.
if you doing something not in the ofbiz patterns please explain.

the themes is where you defined how the screens renders to the end user.
this is also defined for specific component/screens in its decorators

I want to display drop down in my header with category and subcategory
as drop down options, i was able to get the top level element i.e. category
but the subcategory list is a bit dicey. For example whenever i click
widgets all the elements in the menu bar on mousemove over give subcategory
list of the Widgets, if i click gadgets all of the elements show subcategory
list for gadgets ! Any Suggestions ?? Thanks in advance
