I'm just starting out trying to understand the community edition. It's not clear to me how to create a website that has a top menu bar where each menu item generates the second level menu on the left side. Each menu item click on the left side generates the content in the body portion of the page. Basicaly, exactly like what I see on the DotNetNuke site itself, even with the drop-down menu items when you hover over each top-level menu item, with each containing the second level menu that would appear in the left side. Thanks.

Thanks. Now can you suggest where I can find a skin that does this? Or are you suggesting I create my own? If so, what menu controls do you suggest? What does the dotnetnuke website itself use? Is the dotnetnuke site using itself?

So after some additional digging on my part, it looks like the Console module that is built into DotNetNuke is what the DotNetNuke website itself uses for the left nav and is exactly what I need. Well, almost what I need. I need to be able to dynamically create items in the menu hierarchy based on xml data, which I guess means I need to dynamically create pages. Is this possible with DotNetNuke as is, or do I need to customize it? Thanks.
