This mod adds a very simple CSS dropdown menu to the Category Tab. It is a single level only so it will display subcategories or products depending on what the category contains.

Is this in the menu pane? The headings are not justified (they "fit" exactly in the space allotted to them so no room to centre).

Hi Andrew

I may not be following the instructions correctly

I am using the classic template, where does the tpl_modules_categories_tabs.php file or the whole custom folder have to be copied?

thanks

Derek

Glen touched on this in post 26 but I see that the latest files still have a <br /> coded outside the <li> echo calls on lines 70 and 84. The more categories and sub-categories one has, the longer the browser takes to figure out what it's supposed to do.

I'd suggest removing the two <br /> calls and add a line-height call like

#navCatTabsDropdown li
{
float:left;
line-height: 1.5em;
position:relative;
}

The 1.5em can be adjusted to meet the user's taste.

Just my 3.29 cents worth - ain't inflation a

This module is just perfect.

I amusing this to select the category. Once selected, it takes the user to the category page. Here I am using CSS Horizontal drop menu.

I want that on the category pages, the dropdown menu shows the sub categories for the specific category page only. (it should not show the categories listing, but begin with sub categories on level 1)
