This is my first public extension that allows to show a user menu based on tiled images sliding in the screen

Requirements ¶

• Tested on Yii 1.1.10 but should work on previous versions
• jQuery

Usage ¶

This extension is a widget so the usage is very simple:

• Unzip the extension in the application/protected/extensions/ folder
• In a view where you want to present the menu use something like:

$this->widget('ext.TileSlideMenu.TileSlideMenu', array(
	'menuTitle'=>'Yii Framework',
	'items'=>array(
		array(
			'text' => 'Main Site',
			'url'=>'http://www.yiiframework.com/',
			'urlTarget'=>'_blank'
		),
		array(
			'text' => 'Demos',
			'url'=>'http://www.yiiframework.com/demos/'
		),
		array(
			'text' => 'Guide',
			'url'=>'http://www.yiiframework.com/doc/guide/'
		),
		array(
			'text' => 'Class Reference',
			'url'=>'http://www.yiiframework.com/doc/api/'
		),
		array(
			'text' => 'Wiki',
			'url'=>'http://www.yiiframework.com/wiki/'
		),
		array(
			'text' => 'Extensions',
			'url'=>'http://www.yiiframework.com/extensions/'
		),
		array(
			'text' => 'Forum',
			'url'=>'http://www.yiiframework.com/forum/'

		),
	)
));
