    Hi!
    I’m a bit of a newbie, I have used CMS made Simple before and I am trying to migrate a webpage from there to EE2.
    There they have a tag for “menu collapse” and I am trying to figure out what would be the equivalent in EE2.

    And if that question seemed confusing to you, just answer this: How do I create a collapsible menu?

    Thanks!

    Find a menu you like and have EE write out the HTML for you using the channel:entries tags, etc.

    Hello Boyink!
    Thanks for your reply! Okay, I see what you are saying. I thought maybe there was some built in function that I could use. I have been searching for html/javascript code for my issue.

    I already went through 9 chapters of your tutorial “Building a Business web site” (up to chapter 9 I think) since that is what I am aiming to do. I am starting to understand how EE works, but there are still a lot I don’t know how to do yet.

    Another think I’ve been thinking about that you probably can answer, is there a way to chunk up my css code into different sections? Or would I have to create a bunch of stylesheets and link them all in my header? I have a very long css, and it’s difficult to quickly find the part I am working on. How would you solve that?

    I typically would leave the CSS outside of EE and use a text editor with a search feature to manage it.
