Smart Folding Menu Tree - Close one main folder when a new one is opened...

Script: Smart Folding Menu tree
http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex1/navigate1.htm

Hi -

I am hoping someone can help! I am using the Smart Folding menu tree on the following site:

http://216.105.52.70/index.asp?PageAction=Custom&ID=3

(Not live yet but will be in a few days...)

I love the way this script works and everything was very simple to implement. I am just hoping I can make one modification. We need the script to close one folder when a new one is selected. So, for example, on our site we would like the "Bed and Bath" folder to close when the "Home Decor" is opened.

Is this possible? I haven't seen any documentation to this effect. This isn't an issue with the persistance... I really like that the menu stays open when different items are clicked. I just want the main folder to close when another is selected.

I would appreciate any help as soon as possible as the site is supposed to have its soft launch on Monday October 10th.

Thanks!!

Hi Ilana,

I hope I dont piss people off by suggesting a script from the competition, but Im using a similar script that does exactly what you want.
it can be found here:

the script can be used in several ways and you want the bottom version.

Hi Bobbby,

Thank you so much for your suggestion!

Unfortunately this script doesn't work the same way as the DD does. There is one important feature missing... I need to be able to make the main parent option (On their example Book 1, Book 2, etc.) into a link so it will open a new page. (There is important content on these pages we want them to see.) So I guess I have to figure out something else.

Thanks again though - I really appreciate that you took the time to help me!

Anyone else have any suggestions?

I haven't seen any message on this list about not offering payment for services... but I actually have a budget for this work as it is for a paying client. If someone wants the work to modify the DD script to make it usable, please feel free to contact me directly at iwilner at hotmail.com
