This Article Needs Your Help

Reason: References to 1.5 and 1.6.


Note that this example includes class additions because the examples are taken using mod_mainmenu. The suffix "_menu" to the div class and the "menu" class on the ul tag are not present with other modules.

Note that the Module chrome doesn't necessarily change the appearance all that much - this depends on the CSS used in the template. For example, the 'none' and 'horz' chromes look very similar, although the underlying HTML code is very different.
