Thank you

In order to set up a tree menu system in Mambo or Joomla, you just need to add the new item and set the Parent Item accordingly. If the item already exists, you need only to edit the menu item and select a Parent Item for it.

This is controlled under the menu heading at the top of the Admin Control Panel.
Click Menu --> Menu Name --> Add to add a new item     [/tab]OR[tab]Click Menu --> Menu Name --> Menu Item to edit an existing item.



You can control the orientation of the menu and which pages it will appear on in the modules heading at the top of the Admin Control Panel.

Find your menu in the modules section and click on it to edit it. There will be an option for Menu Style where you can select a vertical, horizontal, or flat list menu.

Much of the overall menu appearence is determined by the template used and any modifications made to the CSS file.

Hope this helps. cool.gif

How to add links in menu items?
Editing Menu Types In Mambo / Joomla

Hi,

I am very new to this Joomla...But I am good with html language

I am adding some details of my company in to the website. We have a top menu with menu item name "courier". If I clicked on the courier tab it is saying some error, finally I found that the URL is what they given for this tab was wrong. I need to change the URL for this courier tab. Could you please help where can I need to change this URL in Joomla.  and one more thing is while designing the website they just gave the tab name as "courrier" instead of "courier". I need to change this one also, so please help me where do I need to change this.

Regards

Anu

    developer would go to all of the trouble to make a decent component and not finish the job by
    writting a SearchBot for it. Funny thing is that a full component is much more complicated to write
    than a Mambot. None of the forum bridges or components came with a SearchBot. So one day I sat
