[TYPO3] GMENU file??

[dave ashton]

Hi,
Thanks Chris, I'll have a go today.
I did a manual install for this one (I usually use Fantastico for typo3
installs - wonderful!), so yes it might be broken....ahem!!
Using ver 4.0, so still getting used to the thing.

After doing a search on google, I found this -
http://typo3.org/fileadmin/typo3api-4.0.0/files.html
Has all the files for the core of typo3!!!

Regards,

Dave

If the file is not present anywhere then your T3 install is likely
broken. On the other hand, it's not that easy to find since the
internal symlinks were removed for 4.0. Check at

typo3_src-4.0/typo3/sysext/cms/tslib/media/scripts

BUT...now that I've told you where to find the file I'd like to ask
you, for the sake of whever will be visiting your website and for your
own sanity, not to use that awful thing. Not only is it a pain to
configure, it outputs the nastiest, ugliest and most inaccessible,
bloated html code (and dozens of line of javascript) that you can
possibly imagine.

Ries van Twisk has helpfully published a couple of variants on
css-based dropdowns on his site [1]. If you're comfortable with css,
you can also take a shot at building your own based on the Suckerfish
menus [2].
