Default Editing Catagory Text Size ??? & displaying subcatagories ???

Hello, I would like to implement the following changes...

1) I would like to reduce the text size of the catagories ???

2) I would like after a customer clicks on a root catagory, then it's subcatagories are displayed. It would be best if the subcatagories are not displayed until the root catagory is selected ???

I would very much appreciate any helpfull advice.

Thanks,
Tyler Parker

1. file - skin1/skin1.css:

PHP Code:
.VertMenuItems {
    
COLOR#000000;
    
TEXT-DECORATIONnone;
}
A.VertMenuItems:link {
    
COLOR#081589;
    
TEXT-DECORATIONnone;
}
A.VertMenuItems:visited {
    
COLOR#081589;
    
TEXT-DECORATIONnone;
}
A.VertMenuItems:hover {
    
COLOR#FF0000;
    
TEXT-DECORATIONunderline;
}
A.VertMenuItems:active  {
    
COLOR#081589;
    
TEXT-DECORATIONnone;


2. Look at the option in admin area:
Admin area -> General Settings -> General Option -> If ticked, the categories list always shows root categories:

Thanks Yurij,

I found the catagories text size in file - skin1/skin1.css:
That was a great help!

I was not able to locate how to change to "category" header text though?
Also i was not able to find how to change the width of the menus?

Regarding the displaying of subcatagories, I do have that box checked, my question was: After someone clicks on a root catagory i would like it to branch out into a tree, and then display the subcatagories under the root. I've seen a number of mods which display the roots & subs at all times, but i'm looking only to display the subs after someone selects the root catagory. And then have it fold back up when they change catagories. And i'd like to achieve this with out some fancy java script that slows down the site.

Any Ideas ?
Many thanks...

Hi Tyler,

You will probably want to check out the Fancy Categories module.

Cheers,

Thanks RKdiddy,

I'm sure the fancy catagories mod look and works great.

But i've read to much about it slowing down the preformance of the site.
