I am not sure if this will help or not. I have created a .php page for Departments. I also created an individual .php page for each department. For example, I have Recreation Board, Tax Assessor, Chamber of Commerce as departments. For each department listed there is a corresponding .php file such as recreation.php, taxassessor.php, and chamber.php. I also created one for Departments named dept.php.
I am essentially trying to replicate the menu structure I utilized in Article Manager 2. This menu had the main categories. When a menu item was clicked (such as Departments) the submenus (such as Chamber of Commerce) were displayed under Departments. When another menu item was clicked, the submenus disappeared. So it looked like this:
Home
Departments
Careers
When Departments was clicked it looked the menu looked like this:
Home
Departments
- Chamber
- Recreation
- Tax Office
Careers
Then if you clicked Careers or Home, it displayed as it had before you clicked Departments.
Does this make sense? I hope I have explained this well. I think my question has evolved since I posted this original question into something different. Can you still help?
