public class NavigationJSPortalMenuDropDownView
extends java.lang.Object

Horizontal navigaton scheme with dropdown menus using the JSPortalMenu framework.

Mandatory communities and link to Administration are displayed using same tabs as the menu tabs. The tabs will wrap to multiple rows if there are too many tabs to fit on one row. This view is used by the NavTypeJSPortalMenuDropDown in the above banner view. The menu framework is defined in navjsportalmenufuncs.js and functions in navjsportalmenucommon.js is used for the mandatory community tabs. Now supports browser detection internally, so this view can be used as a nested view by other navigation views. This view supports auto-browser handling so it can be used by external custom navigations. Custom navs that use this view MUST also use the JavaScriptIncludes() method on NavTypeJSPortalMenuDropDown to return proper javascript to support this view.
