Hi there

I am pretty new to DNN so please go easy on me :)
I was wondering if there is any way to make a horizoltal menu where it displays 2 rows instead of 1.

I need this because I am working on a site where a vertical menu wont work and a regular horizontal will take to much space across the screen, but if I can break it into two rows it will solve my problems (also im not interested in haveing the regular sub dropdown) I want all points displayed as mainsites which gets to be quite a few points and again leads back to why I ask if I can do this menu in two rows,

I hope some of you can be of help with clearing this up for me :)

Regards Nakia

You can do that in the dnn:NAV menu by making the top level menu items (which are spans) display as a block element and then give them a width and let them float (left or right). Specify the size of the containing block so they will end up in two rows.

If you use a regular unordered list menu (like Housemenu) and make it horizontal, it will show a double row automatically if you limit the menu's conainer width.

I'l give an axample with Divs for LIs it's the same, and I use inline styles because that's all I can do in the editor
 

Example floating width not limited:

Code:
<div style="padding: 3px; float: left; background-color: rgb(221, 221, 221);">
<div style="margin: 1px; padding: 3px; background-color: rgb(255, 136, 0); width: 100px; float: left;">example</div>
<div style="margin: 1px; padding: 3px; background-color: rgb(255, 136, 0); width: 100px; float: left;">example</div>
<div style="margin: 1px; padding: 3px; background-color: rgb(255, 136, 0); width: 100px; float: left;">example</div>
<div style="margin: 1px; padding: 3px; background-color: rgb(255, 136, 0); width: 100px; float: left;">example</div>
<div style="margin: 1px; padding: 3px; background-color: rgb(255, 136, 0); width: 100px; float: left;">example</div>
<div style="margin: 1px; padding: 3px; background-color: rgb(255, 136, 0); width: 100px; float: left;">example</div>
<div style="margin: 1px; padding: 3px; background-color: rgb(255, 136, 0); width: 100px; float: left;">example</div>
<div style="margin: 1px; padding: 3px; background-color: rgb(255, 136, 0); width: 100px; float: left;">example</div>
<div style="margin: 1px; padding: 3px; background-color: rgb(255, 136, 0); width: 100px; float: left;">example</div>
<div style="clear: both; height: 0px;">&nbsp;</div>
</div>

 

Example fixed width for container:
