changing new xymon menu to allow for horizontal drop downs
I'd like to add some horizontal drop down menus to the new xymon menu, similar to what is shown here:
http://sperling.com/examples/menuh/
With the old menu, it was pretty simple, I just added some code like this:
['Analysis', null, null, ['Web Servers', null, null, ['Averages', null, null, [CPU Utilization, '/hobbit-cgi/......
Of course that doesn't work with the new menu, so I have to start over. Can anyone point me to some example code that does what I'm trying to do? I'm not a web programmer by any means, so any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Tom

People would like all sorts of features in the menu.
The solution really is quite simple. There is nothing in Xymon that forces you to use the menu-system that comes with Xymon - adding another type of menu can be done by putting your menu-code (CSS, javascript, whatever) in an appropriate directory (meaning: you can fetch it via a URL), and then modifying the *_header files and/or xymonserver.cfg to add whatever code is needed to display the menu.
The 4.3.x RELEASENOTES describes how you can replace the default Xymon menu-system with the old Tigra menu; it's even provided as a download from the Xymon SVN repository at Sourceforge. The included README file contains the instructions:
Copy all of the files in www/menu/ to your ~xymon/server/www/menu/ directory. Note that the "tigramenu_items.js" file contains URL's that may be different in your Xymon installation, so adapt this as needed. Any custom menus go into this file.
Copy web/tigramenu_footer to your ~xymon/server/web/ directory.
Modify these settings in hobbitserver.cfg (if not present, just add these lines): XYMONBODYHEADER="" XYMONBODYFOOTER="file:$BBHOME/web/tigramenu_footer" XYMONBODYMENUCSS="$BBMENUSKIN/tigramenu.css"
Restart Xymon
The XYMONBODY* settings contain HTML that is inserted verbatim into the Xymon webpages via the web/*_{header,footer} templates. Usually, you won't have to modify the templates at all - you just change these settings so they contain the HTML code needed to pull in your custom menu code.
