So far we have used the traditional Joomla! look and feel. By this time, we have also learned how to use Flash objects with Joomla! content. In the previous chapter we saw how to embed slideshows with Flash effects, display Flash animations in Joomla! modules and articles, and display Flash videos in content. Now we will see how to change the look and feel of our website. In this chapter we will be looking into changing the menus of a Joomla!-based site. On the completion of this chapter you will be able to:
Understand the difference between Joomla! built-in menus and Flash-based menus
Make menus more attractive using Flash
Use different extensions for customizing menus as per your needs
This chapter assumes that you have basic knowledge of the Joomla! menu system and that you can configure Joomla! menus.
