Hi all,
Many of websites now have dropdown menu... and in Exponential if you want to add a dropdown menu it's VERY difficult ! So... if you can add a dropdown menu in the menu template, or if you can make a great document on "how to make a dropdown menu" it will be perfect !
Many thanks for all that's already be done.
Have a nice day,
Thomas

Hi Thomas,
I suggest you check out this contribution:

It's actually a very clean and easy to implement dropdown menu.
Maybe it could be integrated into a future release by default, but it works pretty well for now.
Best regards,Felipe

hi felipe,
Yes, I have seen this topic. But in my case (and I think in a lot of case) I want to use different pictures to create the dropdown menu.Anyway, a CMS is to manage the content... but we do not forget the design.
Thanks a lot,

If you look closely, the code that displays the menu is standard ez template language.
You can create menus with images either by displaying an image attribute using attribute-view-gui or create an array with the object id's and the related images.
We have created dropdowns that have an image in the first level of navigation (eg. using image buttons for sections), but i guess it can be done with second and third levels too.
From all the CMS's we've used, the suckerfish solution used by this contrib is the most flexible.
Let me know if you'd need anything more complicated.
Regards,
Felipe
