menu tree

Testing and evaluating DHTML menu trees.

Each menu included in the list (below) has it’s own testing area. They’ve been tested for full functionality within a working ‘mini site’ and adapted to demonstrate whether it’s possible to open nested levels and display the current location without altering the body tag.

Here’s the list of menus with a link to the test and a link to the original sites:

Link to test area Link to original site
ECMA menu test Juicystudio.com menu
Ecommnet menu test Ecommnet.co.uk menu
PDE menu test Onlinetools.org menu
Splintered menu test Splintered.co.uk menu
DNolan menu test DNolan.com menu
MKTree menu test Mattkruse.com MKTree menu
Simple Tree menu test Dynamicdrive.com menu
Click drop menu test Bonrouge.com Clickdrop menu
