Menu 2

Select Menu 1 and will show:

That is certainly possible. I'm sure you could find something on hot scripts that would do just that. I don't think Bloc will implement something like this into TinyPortal, but I'm sure he would do something for a theme for it. Then again, I'm just speculating because I'm not Bloc. lol

using the blocks you can add a custom menu to your site

i recommend going down to javabotique or dynamic drive and check out their excellent free menu systems - there are LOADS

I don't really use the menu manager hee hee  >:D Just a suggestion.

One thing about using menu scripts is that one needs to first find out what the (dynamic) url is and another thing is that (I thought) the aim of cms should be to leave the coding to the developers so that layman can use the product. But these are just my views  :P

Yes the coding is pretty much left up to the coders really

But what we are actually suggesting is part of 'Block Code Snippets'

They are mostly 3rd party scripts that can be integrated into your CMS using the block system

Pretty useful stuff...have a look at the block code snippet Index (http://www.tinyportal.net/smf/index.php?topic=4983.0) - ull be sure to find some stuff u may like :)

I am experimenting on using a simple css list solution for this in future releseas of TP. Or javascript menus, like this one:
