DHTML Menus uses Javascript DHTML to reduce the number of page loads when usingnested menus; this is particularly useful with Drupal's administration system.
Ordinarily in Drupal, to expand a menu with sub-items, you need to click a static link and load a full page with the expanded menu in it.
With DHTML Menus, instead the sub-items are expanded dynamically when you click on each item. Additionally, the module uses a cookie to remember which menus are open and whih are closed, so as you navigate around the site your menus remain consistent.
Installation
- Copy the dhtml_menu directory into your sites/all/modules directory.
- Enable the module at administer >> site building >> modules
- All menu blocks will be converted automatically to DHTML menus.
- On administer >> site building >> blocks, you can enable and disable this for each block separately as the menu blocks now have an additional DHTML option in their settings.
- Disabling the module will remove DHTML behavior from all your blocks immediately.
