I would like to achieve the following in my Joomla template's main menu: <pre><code> <ul class="topmenu"> <li><a class="nav_link" id="active" href="#">Home</a></li> <li><a class="nav_link" href="#">About Us</a></li> <li><a class="nav_link" href="#">Services</a> <div class="subnav_wrapper"> <ul class="subnav"> <li><a class="sub_nav_link" href="#">Custom Software</a></li> <li><a class="sub_nav_link" href="#">Software Solutions</a></li> <li><a class="sub_nav_link" href="#">Mobile SMS</a></li> <li><a class="sub_nav_link" href="#">Web Solutions</a></li> <li class="last"><a class="sub_nav_link" href="#">ICT Consultancy</a></li> </ul> </div> </li> </ul> </code></pre> I've already overriden the default.php file for the module (I've copied "default.php" from "modules\mod_mainmenu\tmpl" into "templates\mytemplate\html\mod_mainmenu". What I don't get is how I can differentiate between the top-level ul, li and a elements and those in the subnav. For example, to add the class "last" to the last list item in the subnav, I've tried the following: <pre><code>if ($node->name() == 'ul') { foreach ($node->children() as $child) { if ($child->attributes('access') > $user->get('aid', 0)) { $node->removeChild($child); } } $children_count = count($node->children()); $children_index = 0; foreach ($node->children() as $child) { if ($children_index == $children_count - 1) { $child->addAttribute('class', 'last'); } $children_index++; } } </code></pre> But the above adds the class also in the last item of the top-level ul. Is a way to achieve the desired effect using the template override method?

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
