I'm attempting to code a fly-out menu resembling the one shown at the top of this page (http://www.cssmenus.co.uk/flyout.html), with the difference being that I want to make an Ajax request every time I hover over a menu item to pull the sub-categories to reduce load.
We built a recursive category structure using EOs that could (theoretically) accommodate an infinite number of levels, so implementing this using Ajax seems like a good alternative to having to pull the whole category structure all at once, even if that is done only once per session.
I've gotten as far as tinkering with AjaxTree, but realized that I would have to rewrite a bunch of code in AjaxUpdateLink as it assumes that the Ajax request will be sent "onClick" instead of "onMouseover".
Before I go down that path, I wanted to know if anyone has done this before or if someone has other suggestions for me.
Thanks,
Ben
