Drupal - DHTML Menu Module

This is the simplest module that ive come across during my course fo learning Drupal.

Why are we learning this module?

Thats the first question I believe you shud ask yourself...In case uve not asked yourselves :) , lemme answer it since I raised it at the first place.. :)

Oh k.. If youve explored or played with drupal, you would have noticed that when you click on the parent menu, a new page opens.This increases the number of pages t be opened and makes the user wait. By using DHTML Menu, the sub menu opens up below the parent item and without opening or refreshing the current page.

Here we go, as always :)

1. So as described in my previous posts, u need to download this DHTML module( just goto drupal.org, click on modules do a search with DHTML menu), unzip it and save it in C:\wamp\www\drupal\sites\all\modules.

2. Make sure that you download the correct version.

3. Once you have downloaded it, start the WAMP server and go to http://localhost/drupal .

4. Now login into your account.

5. Goto Administer- Site Building - Module.

6. Check DHTML Menu and click on save configuration

7. Now again goto Administer- Site Configuration(Click on By Module on the top) - DHTML Menu.

8. Now you can check animate sliding effect and decide which menu you want to have DHTML effect.

9. Now keep playing with the options that you see and try to get the effect which suits your needs.

Ill come up with more modules in my next post...
