Hi Andreas - no that is not what I am after - I do not simply want a
horisontal list of submenus, but a stacked horisontal list of submenus
devided by (n) columns
I drew up an example
http://www.spacexplorer.net/examples/typoscriptMultiColumnMenuIllustration.png
I am fine with level 1 and level 2 (although the order is not
(1,2),(3,4),(5) but rather (1,4),(2,5),(3) - because I am testing against
%3 - I can live with that - also the menu's will change from 5 to
whatever, - say it has 7 entries: (1,4,7),(2,5),(3,6) - ideally I would
want it (1,2,3),(4,5,6),(7) - but like I said - I can live with it )
The problem is that a simple menu looks like this:
##------------------------------------------------------
menu = HMENU
menu {
## first level
1 = TMENU
1.expAll = 1
1.NO = 1
1.NO{
}
## second level
2= TMENU
2.expAll = 1
2.NO = 1
2.NO{
}
}
##------------------------------------------------------
but because I am using ({register:count_HMENU_MENUOBJ}+2)%3
in the ## first level block
and need the count to continue to duplicate the block and test for
({register:count_HMENU_MENUOBJ}+1)%3
I can't have the
## second level
2= TMENU
I'll have to write some pretty complex COA object, etc..
-------- the next is a rant - - -
I have implemented the simple menu and used javascript to move things around
client side for now (this took me 15min) - but I do want to lessen
client-side UI configuration
while with typoscript I have been spending more than 2 days and I keep on
hitting walls
PHP would also be easier - I reckon I have to learn how to write a typo3
extension and extend it with PHP -
I wish I could use javascript or PHP server side to accomplish this easy and
not hassle with typoscript
I do want to learn how to do it since I do want to understand typoscript
better
Why?? - because I love TYPO3
---------------------------
thanks
