Hi Jeremy,
Let me see if I understand you correctly: you want to have a
horizontal menu bar where each item will drop down a list of checkbox
controls when selected?
Cheers,
Lach

I'm having trouble thinking of a way to accomplish the next step in
my application. Basically what we have right now is a menu bar that
is created from a mysql query. That part I have working fine. The
next part that I'm working on is a permission based system that say
an admin were to login and go to the menu bar admin screen and be
able to select which items of the menu a group has the ability to
see. Now the easiest way I can think of laying this out for the
admin would be to just recreate the same menu with the same queries
but with checkboxes next to each menu item(including the top level
item that when clicked selects all children). Basically imitating
the TreeCheckBox component I have seen but in menu bar form.
However I have not been able to find any examples or even any talk
about something like this before. The reason I don't want to use
the TreeCheckBox is because the tree would be very long and cause a
lot of scrolling with this many sub items so really the best bet is
to have something horizontal that I already know fits the screen.
Does anyone have any ideas of other components or other ways that
this task could be accomplished? Any help or opinions would be much
appreciated.
