TYPO3: A really simple and basic menu

This is probably the most simple way to add a dynamic menu to your TYPO3 website. Just put the code into the Typoscript setup and parse temp.menu through the autoparser.

temp.menu = HMENU
temp.menu.1 = TMENU
temp.menu.1 {
NO.ATagBeforeWrap = 1

Normally, when you hit the full screen button in the htmlAREA RTE, the text-area doesn’t go full screen at all. Instead most of the time (depending on your browser and TYPO3 version) you’ll get this half full screen text area which is really not helpful at all. To fix this, past to following line into your TSConfig field in the parent page or folder.
