Is there a way to have MC genrate and display a Category list that is a drop down menu instead of simply listing them one by one under each other?

You can do this manually... but it cannot be done dynamically. In other words, there is no way or option currently available for the cart to do this for you.

Ultrashock,

I guess I have a similar dilemma. I would like to display the manufacturer names on the left navigation bar, however, only the drop-down option is available for manufacturer names. I was looking for something that would allow me to use the Manufacturer name in a way similar to the Category display and the manufacturer products as sub-categories. The work-around would be to setup Manufacturers in the category field, however, I need the category field as well. Any ideas???
