Try http://www.xoopsland.com/xoopsmenus/ from Mr. Reda.

But it looks like it doesn't work right now, so try later

hi,

You could get a full css menu quickly.

1. style.css, add (1st line):
@import url(navig.css);


2. create a navig.css stylesheet in same folder, with this code :
#xo-globalnav {
  clear: both;
  border: 0px;
  padding-left: 2.5em;
  margin: 0;
  z-index: 5;
  text-align: center;
}

* html #xo-globalnav {
  height: 30px;
}

#xo-globalnav ul {
  min-height: 30px;
  list-style-type: none;
  padding: 0;
  margin: 0;
  z-index: 500;
  font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', 'Lucida Grande', Verdana, Arial, Sans-Serif;
  font-size: 1.25em;
  font-weight: 700;
}

#xo-globalnav li {
  display: inline;
  float: left;
  min-height: 26px;
  position: relative;
  text-align: left;
  padding: 5px 14px 5px 14px;
  margin: 0;
  font-size: .9em;
}

#xo-globalnav li ul {
  width: 128px;
  height: auto;
  top: 100%;
  left: 0px;
  font-weight: normal;
  font-size: 1em;
  border-top: 1px solid #000;
  padding: 0 2px 0 2px;
}

#xo-globalnav li ul li {
  text-align: left;
  width: 100px;
  height: auto;
  min-height: auto;
  display: block;
}

#xo-globalnav li.LargeMenu ul li {
  text-align: left;
  width: 156px;
  height: auto;
  min-height: auto;
  display: block;
}

#xo-globalnav ul li a {
  text-decoration: none;
  background-color: transparent;
  font-weight: 700;
}

#xo-globalnav a:hover {
  text-decoration: none;
}

#xo-globalnav li li ul {
  top: 0;
  left: 0;
}

#xo-globalnav li li:hover ul {
  left: 150px;
}

#xo-globalnav ul ul, #xo-globalnav ul li:hover ul ul, #xo-globalnav ul ul li:hover ul ul, #xo-globalnav ul ul ul li:hover ul ul, #xo-globalnav ul ul ul ul li:hover ul ul {
  position: absolute;
  display: none;
}

#xo-globalnav li:hover ul, #xo-globalnav ul li:hover ul, #xo-globalnav ul ul li:hover ul, #xo-globalnav ul ul ul li:hover ul, #xo-globalnav ul ul ul ul li:hover ul, #xo-globalnav ul ul ul ul ul li:hover ul {
  display: block;
}

#xo-globalnav, #xo-globalnav a, #xo-globalnav a:active, #xo-globalnav a:hover, #xo-globalnav a:visited {}

#xo-globalnav ul li ul li {
  background-color: #3b3b3b;
}

#xo-globalnav ul li ul li:hover {
  background-color: #4b4b4b;
}


3. Place your horizontal menu in theme.html. With default theme :

Replace :
<table cellspacing="0">
    <tr id="header">
      <td id="headerlogo"><a href="<{$xoops_url}>/"><img src="<{$xoops_imageurl}>logo.gif" width="150" height="80" alt="" />a>td>
      <td id="headerbanner"><{$xoops_banner}>td>
    tr>
    <tr>
      <td id="headerbar" colspan="2">&nbsp;td>
    tr>
  table>


By (to be modify with your own urls):
<table cellspacing="0">
    <tr id="header">
      <td id="headerlogo"><a href="<{$xoops_url}>/"><img src="<{$xoops_imageurl}>logo.gif" width="150" height="80" alt="" />a>td>
      <td id="headerbanner"><{$xoops_banner}>td>
    tr>
    <tr>

<td colspan="2">


<div id="xo-globalnav" class="x2-nl x2-navigation">
<ul>

Doesn't multimenu have also an option for horizontal menus?

Mastop Publish has a horizontal menu. It has some basic css configurability (color, background-color, border, etc). Works fine in 2.3.2a

hi,

sorry... may you have some css conflicts in style.css about ul {...} or li {...} ?

What's your theme ?

Mastop Publish: http://www.mastop.com.br/conteudo/open-source/mastop-publish-english.mstp

You should also post which theme you are using as Burning has suggested. His solution should work as well.

Multimenu (v1.9) does work with 2.3.2 and there is a horizontal dropdown menu type available from the block configuration form.
