Add another dropDown to my NavBar

[Maniac]

I really like the drop down for Quick Links and want to add another one for a custom item on my navBar.

I edited my navbar and created a new entry called "Site Links":

<td id="navbar_siteLinks"><a href="/forum/local_links.php?">Site Links</a><script type="text/javascript"> vbmenu_register("navbar_siteLinks" ,1); </script></td>

Then in the NavBar template (inside the <!-- NAVBAR POPUP MENUS --> If Statement) I added another group of links:

<if condition="$show['siteLinks']">
	<!-- Site Links menu -->
	<div class="vbmenu_popup" id="siteLinks_menu" style="display:none">
		<table cellpadding="4" cellspacing="1" border="0">
		<tr><td class="thead">Site Links</td></tr>		
		<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="#">Link #1</a></td></tr>
		<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="#">Link #2</a></td></tr>
		<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="#">Link #3</a></td></tr>
		<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="#">Link #4</a></td></tr>
		<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="#">Link #5</a></td></tr>
		</table>
	</div>
	<!-- / Site Links menu -->
	</if>

Now I'm stuck...

I know I have to set the condition $show['siteLinks'] somwhere, just not sure where....

Any guidance would be greatky appreciated.

Thanks!

Thanks again!

That did the trick...

My big mistake was adding the

<if condition="$show['siteLinks']">

Once i removed that and made sure all the menu id's were the same it worked like a charm

Now all I have to do is figure out how to replace my table with the contents from a given template...

Add this code to the phpinclude_start template:

eval('$variable = "' . fetch_template('[color=red]template_name[/color]') . '";');

Change the red code appropriately. Then you can use $variable in the templates and it will parse to the contents of the template you specify.
