Thought I'd cross-post here to since it's a functionality
issue as well, and I'm not sure how populated the themes list is at this
point.

I'm working with
some graphic designers who are still coming up to speed on Drupal. We're trying
to create a horizontal menu with data from a taxonomy. It's three deep. Ideally
the first level would be horizontal, the second and third would be vertical, ie,
the menu options drop down, and then if there is a third level it comes out and
drops down again.
After looking at a
number of options (eg. jsdoMenu, rewriting our xTemplate them in phpTemplate,
hardcoding menu, etc) we decided we would try to get Nick Lewis' phpTemplate
menu (http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex1/hvmenu/index.htm)
working in xTemplate. Not sure this is feasible... Anyway, we've got the css
stuff working but want to find a hack that would allow us to run a php snippet
in the appropriate place in the template.
Under the existing
<tr> for the logo and primary and secondary menus we were thinking of
doing something like:
<tr><td colspan="2"
class="topmenu">test<?php
$TheMenu = theme_menu_tree(17);
print $TheMenu;
?> </td></tr>
Can we create a
{mymenu} that would run this code snippet?
Or is there a
different way we can do this using xTemplate?
Advice welcome. (Yeah,
we should have figured out menuing before doing theme in xTemplate, but we're
newbies...)
