I am using a navigation XML file in conjunction with my Zend Framework MVC

  • 0

I am using a navigation XML file in conjunction with my Zend Framework MVC app.

A top level menu is rendered at the top of my layout. The code to produce it looks like this:

$this->navigation()->menu()->renderMenu(null,array('maxDepth'   =>  0));

This will automatically render an unordered list of links that I have styled into my top menu.
Now, I want to render the submenu (to render the active container tree) taking advantage of all the built-in Zend_Navigation goodness (MVC and ACL integration) but with custom markup. I would do this by inserting this:

$this->navigation()->menu()->renderSubMenu();

In fact, I have a very specific set of markup that I need to render this with. It is so drastically different I do not think I could style an unordered list to accomodate my desired presentation.

Is there a simple way (or complicated if need be 😉 to customize a submenu?

    Check out this answer of mine: Getting Zend_Navigation menu to work with jQuery's Fisheye

    Summarized, you create a view for the navigation and loop through the pages and use the page methods to create custom markup. As far as I know, there’s no decorator-like support for Navigation currently.
