Default Re: Overriding a skin module with my DropDown Module

Hi can you explain this a bit more fully ... I need to do a similar thing...

That is, I want to have a horizontal category menu in the header area, with the ability to show the subcategories in a drop-down type panel.

I have tried using addClassToList in my custom skin main.php to add the topcategories class to the layout.header.bar list and have set up a category menu template there which was getting displayed OK ... but when I try and add code to display the categories I get an error. I am assuming I need to assign the data to the template in some way?

I am also not sure how to get the subcategories available ....

Have only been working on XC5 for a few days, so forgive my ignorance of the new architecture... but any help would be greatly appreciated!

Jan
