FarCry Implementation of the Brain Jar menu

Contributors Chris Kent; Jeff Coughlin (xCode fixes); David Whiterod

Recent Changes 21 Dec 2005: Uses ObjectID (instead of objectName) as the ID of submenus. This allows duplicate navigation folder names and removed the need to clean non-XHTML characters from the menu name.

The BrainJar menu creates a dynamic, multi-level, drop-down menu for your site. It's built from standard HTML elements using CSS to define the look and layout and JavaScript to handle the action of the drop-down menus.

Mike Hall gives a step-by-step introduction to the menu in Revenge of the Menu Bar.

Installation

1. Copy _bjmenu.cfm to your site's includes directory
2. Copy bjmenu.css to your site's CSS directory (example CSS as used on http://www.atlas.sa.gov.au/go/about)
3. Copy bjmenu.js to your site's JavaScript directory (Copyright 2000-2004 by Mike Hall. See http://www.brainjar.com for terms of use.)
