3. Like look the same as the main/secondary navigation do in the sidebar? This would only be possible with quite a bit of custom CSS – I may be able to write some up in the next couple days.
Thanks for the reply. Point one and two are working fine! I had been trying the trick of point one before without success but now it is working (probably a typo).
Point 3: A lot of code was also what I had in mind. Just wanted to check of there was no easy way.
