Is it possible to make a dropdown menu from a static menu?

I want to have a dropdown menu on a page, where the dropdown topics come from subpages to a page used by a static menu).

I can see that it is not possible with the standard template/page/menu function, but does anyone have a build-up/work-around solution for that?

Hi Michael

 

It's not possible with the standard navigations.

 

But with a combination of XML/XSLT and the suckerfish dropdowns I think you can do it.

 

In the XSLT you just select the pages with a specific parentid that should appear in the dropdown with the XPATH statement.

Example: //Page[@ID=5]/Page

The example above selects all pages that belongs to page with the id = 5.
