For my private site I need a drop down menu, so that if I move over a button / link, a drop down appears with more links.
Take a look at the bar above and imagine you move your mouse of "Community" and a box pops up below community with the links to "OpenACS Sites" and "OpenACS companies", so I do not have to click on communities and then on OpenACS sites to get there.
I would need this to work in a way that I can call a procedure:
generate_dropdown_menu [list [list "/news" News] [list "/forums" Forums] [list "/communities" Community [list [list "..." "OpenACS Companies] [list "..." "OpenACS sites"]]]]
The idea is, we have a list of lists where each list has at least two elements (URL and display name) and the third optional element is again a list of lists with URL / display name for the submenu. The result should behave like http://archive.dojotoolkit.org/nightly/tests/widget/test_Menu2.html .
Additionally a parameter should be added to make this a context bar instead (so you can right click, see http://archive.dojotoolkit.org/nightly/tests/widget/test_Menu2_Node.html)
If someone commits this to OpenACS by 15th of January 2007 as a new years present for OpenACS he/she will have a $100 to spend (at least thats what I pledge, if others want to up this, feel free to join).
The code should be reusable so you can change the look of the menu (colors, fonts etc.) by editing the CSS parameters. Obviously no images are involved.
