Hi,

I want to create a HMENU that only shows pages starting from a
particular page within the page tree.


I could put this menu in an extension template at the particular subpage
but I want this menu to be available to the whole site so it has to be
on the root template.

HMENU does not have any function that allows you to specify a starting page.

Thanks,
Nagita

Maybe you should re-read TSRef, as there's several vays to specify the
starting page/position for HMENUs, like "entryLevel", and all the "special"
properties.

Actualy, Nagita is right
There is no simple way create menu of all sub pages of one page.
"directory" and "list" are little limited - you can build only first level
of pages. Please, correct me if I am wrong.
entryLevel is to tricky way to create such menu.
It would be greate if I could create tree-menu using special=directory ( now
only 1 level works)
Or maybe there is such possibility?

thx

No, I believe that you can build a submenu (= other levels). The only
problem is that the submenu is hidden.

Item 1
|- Subitem 1
- Subitem 2
Item 2
|- Subitem 1
- Subitem 2

With normal menu, if you click on "Item 1" the submenu automatically
appears. With "special=directory", it doesn't. However, if you use
"expAll=1" (TMENU property) in the first level, the submenu will appear.
Unfortunately, all the submenus will appear = even the submenu of "Item 2".

The solutions are tricky, a bit.

I have this working as I wanted although I don't exactly know how I did it.

This is the cascading set of menus.
# -------------- header1 menu (start) ------------
lib.headermenu1 >

temp.headermenu1 = HMENU
temp.headermenu1.special = directory
temp.headermenu1.special.value = 404
temp.headermenu1.wrap = <ul> | </ul>
temp.headermenu1.1 = TMENU
temp.headermenu1.1 {
NO.allWrap = <li> | </li>
ACT = 1
ACT.allWrap = <li class="hcurrent"> | </li>
}

lib.headermenu1 < temp.headermenu1
# -------------- header1 menu (end) ------------

# -------------- header2 menu (start) ------------
lib.headermenu2 >

temp.headermenu2 = HMENU
temp.headermenu2.entryLevel = 2

temp.headermenu2.wrap = <ul> | </ul>
temp.headermenu2.1 = TMENU
temp.headermenu2.1 {
NO.allWrap = <li> | </li>
ACT = 1
ACT.allWrap = <li class="hcurrent"> | </li>
}

lib.headermenu2 < temp.headermenu2
# -------------- header2 menu (end) ------------



# -------------- header3 menu (start) ------------
lib.headermenu3 >

temp.headermenu3 = HMENU
temp.headermenu3.entryLevel = 3

temp.headermenu3.wrap = <ul> | </ul>
temp.headermenu3.1 = TMENU
temp.headermenu3.1 {
NO.allWrap = <li> | </li>
ACT = 1
ACT.allWrap = <li class="hcurrent"> | </li>
}

lib.headermenu3 < temp.headermenu3
# -------------- header3 menu (end) ------------

The TS code above will generate invalid HTML if there is more than one
level showing. You should change each instance of '.allWrap' to
'.wrapItemAndSub'.

Your code will generate something like this:

<ul>
<li>Lorem</li>
<ul>
<li>Ipsum</li>
<li>Dolor</li>
</ul>
</ul>

....but you /want/ this:

<ul>
<li>Lorem
<ul>
<li>Ipsum</li>
<li>Dolor</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
