Hi,

I have purchase  9 videos on CSS skinning are available at:

http://www.dnncreative.com/HowtocreateapureCSSskin/tabid/252/Default.aspx.

But in "How to create a pure CSS skin" i didnot find how to create a left menu with dynamic display of sub menus on the click of main menu.

For example if i click on any main menu its sub menus should be displayed under it and if I click another main menu then previous sub-menus should close and new sub menus of current menu should be displayed.


I am trying to create a menu that initially looks like this:

MainMenu1
MainMenu2
MainMenu3
MainMenu4

And when you click on MainMenu1...
MainMenu1
..SubMenu1_1
..SubMenu1_2
..SubMenu1_3
MainMenu2
MainMenu3
MainMenu4

 and if I click on MainMenu3....
MainMenu1
MainMenu2
MainMenu3
..SubMenu3_1
..SubMenu3_2
..SubMenu3_3
MainMenu4

I am using House Menu downloaded from HouseofNuke site. I am using DNN version 4.06.01.

Please guide us how to achieve the above funtionality.

Waiting for your positive response.

Thanks and Regards
Nikhil chorge


Hello,

It can be slightly complex to set this up using the HouseMenu, but you can see an example of this in action with the menu on www.skinningtoolkit.com


Basically, if you are using the house menu you need to create a separate skin and house menu configuration for each of the main menus which require a dynamic submenu. I have explained how to do this in this tutorial: How to create Horizontal CSS menus in DotNetNuke using the HouseMenu

This is for multiple horizontal menus, but can be applied to a vertical menu. - If you use the web developers toolbar you can view the CSS code that I have used on the skinning Toolkit site and using a mixture of this with the horizontal menu tutorial should solve your problem.

I have recently been looking at the Snapsis menu, this menu allows you to configure this sort of display without the complex configurations that are required in the house menu.  If you are interested in exploring the Snapsis menu a 35% discount is available for subscribers, but at the moment I do not have any tutorials on how to use the Snapsis menu.

I hope this helps, if you have any further questions please ask them in the forum to get the quickest response and so that everyone else can learn from the answers.

Thanks,

Lee
