Adding another Heading to the Navigational Menu

[sporthorsebreeder +]

Can anyone tell me how to add an additional heading to the Navigational Menu?
I want to add a heading called "Site Info" to break up the menu in the same way that the "Member Options" Heading does it just now. I want to include it just after the "Top Listings link".

Thanks for any help.

The navigation section is contained in its own table in the file /templates/<your template name>/layout.tpl.php

The section that makes up the navigation has a comment designating where it starts and where it ends that looks like this.

<!-- // Navigation // -->

The headers for the nav title arent actually defined with the TH tag but instead are just a normal TD tag with a class designation for css...ie class="navTitle"

So, to add another table header simply add a new table row and data cell with the title like this...

<tr>
<td class="navTitle">Site Info</td>
</tr>

then under that heading add your links by creating a new row and data cell like this...

<tr>
<td class="navlist"><img src="images/bullet.gif" alt="" /><a href="link to your page">Text for your link</a></td>
</tr>

Larry how can I get the table header to pick up the attributes of the main headers ... please look at www.zfreeads.com

"0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="navigation">
<tr>
<td class="leftcol_top">{$smarty.const.LANG_TPL_NAVIGA TION}</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="navlist"><img src="templates/default/images/bullet.gif" alt="" /> <a href="{$smarty.const.URL}/toplistings.php?pg=featured">Featured Ads</a></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="navlist"><img src="templates/default/images/bullet.gif" alt="" /> <a href="{$smarty.const.URL}/toplistings.php?pg=new">{$smarty.const.LANG_TPL_NE W}</a></td>

</tr>
<tr>
<td class="navTitle">Site Info</td>
</tr>

{foreach from=$templatepages item="entry"}
<tr>
<td class="navlist"><img src="templates/default/images/bullet.gif" alt="" /> <a href="{$smarty.const.URL}/pages.php?page={$entry.pageID}">{$entry.pPageTitle }</a></td>
</tr>
{/foreach}
<tr>

You created different css classes for you nav table and the one I used in my example was the default. FOr example for you top nave bar is class="leftcol_top"
