Title: *solved* menu item: manual break?
Post by: Chaploo on December 05, 2008, 12:01:28 PM
Hi everybody,

I was wondering if it's possible to put manual <br /> into menu items any way.
E. g.: If the menu item is

"References Partner Example"

and I want it to be diplayed not the way it happens automatically:

References Partner
Example

but:

References
Partner Example

To put a <br /> or &nbsp; into menu title doesn't work unfortunately.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance,
regards
Jochen

This is all handled in your stylesheet. (CSS)

This website (http://css.maxdesign.com.au/listamatic/) explains very good how that works. Including examples for horizontal and vertical menu's.

Thanks for your reply.

I think I forgot to mention  that I want to change the line break only on one special menu item and was wondering if that works.

Thanks to BerndJM in the german forum I got a solution: If you use show_menu2 and modify the menu call like this:
Code: [Select]
<?php 
ob_start
();
show_menu2(1SM2_ROOTSM2_ROOTSM2_CURR|SM2_PRETTY);
$menu ob_get_contents();
ob_end_clean();
$menu str_replace(&#39;&lt;br /&gt;&#39;, &#39;<br />&#39;, $menu);
echo $menu;
?>
you can put as many <br /> in the menu title as you want. Only negative aspect: the filenames will look a little weird then.

Using this, you can use other characters to for replacing with a <br/>.

If you use a #, it will be removed from the filename, but it will be in the menu (not tested!!)
In that case change the replace line to:
Code: [Select]
$menu = str_replace('#', '<br />', $menu);

Great idea - and it works! The # simply gets deleted.

From example#and#more as menu title you get exampleandmore.php as filename and the menu shows:

example
and
more

Thanks!!!
