Hi,
I want to create a menu (in code) with an average number of MenuItems. Say about 5 top level each with 4 or 5 child submenu items. That's easy.
Now to one of those sub menu items, I want to add a few hundred menu item, but have a different skin applied to them. I'll call this the
"DrillDown" menu. What is the best way to do this?
I know RadMenu can have only one skin and is applied at the menu level, not the child MenuItem level, so I see the following two chices:
(1) set the CSS for each of the MenuItems I'm adding to the DrillDown menu. The only drawback to this is that there are so many items in this submenu that I wonder if that makes the markup bloated.
(2) add a second RadMenu as a child control of one of the MenuItems of the main RadMenu. I can then set the skin of this second RadMenu to be different than the first. I've tried this approach, but it seems that the resultant "DrillDown" menu styles are affected by the main menu's styles.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance,
Cesar

Hello Cesar,
I recommend you modify your skin to accommodate the design requirements. Even setting the CssClass of every drilldown menu item is better than using nested RadMenu objects.
