WOW . . . this is the first time I have seen an idea such as this – VERY COOL and innovative idea !!!

Off the top of my head, I am not certain how to accomplish this – though I AM certain it CAN be accomplished. I will give it some thought – but this will remain open to ANYONE who might already know how this can be achieved. (If I can’t figure it out, I too will be looking forward to seeing what a potential set up for this might be)>

🙂

Yah, I new about that kind of set up …. it’s your “side-by-side” idea within the same layout block area that intrigues me.

you can’t do it with exactly the same block. You CAN do it if you have two blocks same type in the same div container I believe. There is coding in megamenu block that makes it unique so this would need to be changed for each menu.

Here how i achive this
In default.xml we have line
[PHP]<block name=”mainnav” type=”mainnav”></block>[/PHP]
In mainnav.php

<?php
//left navigation – leftmain
$topmenu = null;
$topparams = new JParameter(”);
/* Set the menutype */
$topparams->set( ‘menutype’, ‘leftmain’ );

$topparams->set( ‘menu_images_align’, ‘left’ );
$topparams->set(‘menu_title’, 0);
$topparams->set(‘menuname’, ‘ja-leftmega’); //to generate id for this menu

//$topmenu = $this->loadMenu($topparams, ‘mega’);
$file = T3_CORE.DS.’menu’.DS.”mega.class.php”;
if (!is_file ($file)) return null;
require_once ($file);
$menuclass = “JAMenumega”;
$topmenu = new $menuclass ($topparams);
//assign template object
$topmenu->_tmpl = $this;
//load menu
$topmenu->loadMenu();

$this->addJS (‘js/menu/mega.js’);
?>

<div id=”ja-leftnav” class=”clearfix”>
<?php if (($topmenu)) $topmenu->genMenu (); ?>
</div>

<?php
//right navigation – rightmain
$topmenu = null;
$topparams = new JParameter(”);
/* Set the menutype */
$topparams->set( ‘menutype’, ‘rightmain’ );

$topparams->set( ‘menu_images_align’, ‘left’ );
$topparams->set(‘menu_title’, 0);
$topparams->set(‘menuname’, ‘ja-rightmega’); //to generate id for this menu

//$topmenu = $this->loadMenu($topparams, ‘mega’);
$file = T3_CORE.DS.’menu’.DS.”mega.class.php”;
if (!is_file ($file)) return null;
require_once ($file);
$menuclass = “JAMenumega”;
$topmenu = new $menuclass ($topparams);
//assign template object
$topmenu->_tmpl = $this;
//load menu
$topmenu->loadMenu();
//check css/js file
$this->addCSS (‘css/menu/mega.css’);
$this->addJS (‘js/menu/mega.js’);
?>

<div id=”ja-rightnav” class=”clearfix”>
<?php if (($topmenu)) $topmenu->genMenu (); ?>
</div>

<ul class=”no-display”>
<li><a href=”<?php echo $this->getCurrentURL();?>#ja-content” title=”<?php echo JText::_(“SKIP_TO_CONTENT”);?>”><?php echo JText::_(“SKIP_TO_CONTENT”);?></a></li>
</ul>
[/PHP]

This code will generate html:<div class=”wrap ” id=”ja-mainnav”>
<div class=”main clearfix”>
<div class=”clearfix” id=”ja-leftnav”>
<div id=”ja-leftmega” class=”ja-megamenu clearfix”>
</div> <script type=”text/javascript”>
var megamenu = new jaMegaMenuMoo (‘ja-leftmega’, {
‘bgopacity’: 0,
‘delayHide’: 300,
‘slide’ : 1,
‘fading’ : 0,
‘direction’: ‘down’,
‘action’ : ‘mouseover’,
‘tips’ : false,
‘duration’ : 300,
‘hidestyle’: ‘fastwhenshow’
});
</script>
</div>

<div class=”clearfix” id=”ja-rightnav”>
<div id=”ja-rightmega” class=”ja-megamenu clearfix”>

</div> <script type=”text/javascript”>
var megamenu = new jaMegaMenuMoo (‘ja-rightmega’, {
‘bgopacity’: 0,
‘delayHide’: 300,
‘slide’ : 1,
‘fading’ : 0,
‘direction’: ‘down’,
‘action’ : ‘mouseover’,
‘tips’ : false,
‘duration’ : 300,
‘hidestyle’: ‘fastwhenshow’
});
</script>
</div>

<ul class=”no-display”>
<li><a title=”Skip to content” href=”#ja-content”>Skip to content</a></li>
</ul> </div>
</div>

In menu manager i have to menus – rightmain and leftmain.

That`s all.
