I just noticed that your menu system is listed down the lefthand side of your page. Do you have any articles that describe how you achieved this? Is it overriding the CSS?

Shnar,

Well you can do a vertical menu with the DNN menu, however, I am personally using the CSS Nav menu component to make my left nav menu. it is a full CSS/HTML menu with no javascripting. My code is a slightly modified version of the sample skin data that John Mitchell provides with the CSS Nav menu.

I'm not familiar with the CSS Nav menu component. Is that a module, or a skin element?
