Re: [phpwslistings-dev] menu.tpl

[<ad...@tu...>]

Sorry I took so long getting back to you on this one...

I'm not an expert in interface design but I think you should attempt to
have the menu only contain hyperlinks and no form elements.  This may mean
you need to move some of those form elements to other places in your
module but it would allow more flexability with how the general menu is
displayed.  This includes allowing users to move the block anywhere they
wish and perhaps replace the textual links with linked custom images.

The "class chooser" (dropbox) for searching and viewing listings could be
moved into the search and view sections of the module and just default to
the first one in the list or simply search all classes (some people may
want this functionality anyway).  Then the user would have a choice of
refining their search.  A good example would be a clothing site.  The
classes could be something like pants, shirts, and shoes.  When a user
initially browses or searches, they are searching all the products, then
the user can refine their search or viewing to just pants or just shirts,
etc.

Hope that helps :)
