Re: how to drop down menu navigation?
I would like to know how to make this with sections and titles of articles.
i.e. lets say I have a section called “submission” and in that section i will find 3 articles of which the titles would be the sub-nav under “submission”.
Meaning that when user would hover over “submission” a drop down menu would show up with the three titles. Any plug-ins or ideas?
I try, and I try, and I try…. and sometimes I achieve

Re: how to drop down menu navigation?
First make your list
Basic TXP code:
<div id="nav">
<ul id="superfish">
<li><a id="nav01" class="menu<txp:if_section name=''><txp:if_status number='200'> selected</txp:if_status></txp:if_section>" href="/">Home</a></li>
<li><a id="nav02" class="menu<txp:if_section name='submission'> selected</txp:if_section>" href="/submission"><txp:section name="submission" title="1" /></a>
<txp:article_custom wraptag="ul" break="li" section="submission"><txp:permlink><txp:title /></txp:permlink></txp:article_custom>
</li>
...etc...
</ul>
</div>Then style it with CSS, see here for a good example of a CSS only menu: Son of Suckerfish
Or even better use jQuery Superfish for a really snazzy menu. I use it on my textpattern site.
