I've created a menu in umbraco using XSLT. The menu is using the usual ul and li elements and I'm displaying only the first level of the menu. The aim is to create a menu that expands to show the sub menu when I click a parent node (in the top level).
I am after the xslt I would need to expose the sub menu when clicked.
I think I would need to make use of ancestor-or-self to detect the current menu and parent menu and display them and also the $currentPage variable.
I have the following xslt:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE xsl:stylesheet [ <!ENTITY nbsp " "> ]>
<xsl:stylesheet
version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"

<xsl:output method="xml" omit-xml-declaration="yes"/>
<xsl:param name="currentPage"/>
<xsl:template match="/">
<div id="kb-categories">
<h3>Categories</h3>
<xsl:call-template name="drawNodes">
<xsl:with-param name="parent" select="$currentPage/ancestor-or-self::node [@level=1]"/>
</xsl:call-template>
</div>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template name="drawNodes">
<xsl:param name="parent"/>
<xsl:if test="(umbraco.library:IsProtected($parent/@id, $parent/@path) = 0 or (umbraco.library:IsProtected($parent/@id, $parent/@path) = 1)) and $parent/@level = 1">
<ul class="kb-menuLevel1" >
<xsl:for-each select="$parent/node [string(./data [@alias='showInMenu']) = 1]">
<li>
<a href="/kb{umbraco.library:NiceUrl(@id)}">
<xsl:value-of select="@nodeName"/>
</a>
<xsl:variable name="level" select="@level" />
<xsl:if test="(count(./node [string(./data [@alias='showInMenu']) = '1']) > 0)">
<xsl:call-template name="drawNodes">
<xsl:with-param name="parent" select="."/>
</xsl:call-template>
</xsl:if>
</li>
</xsl:for-each>
</ul>
</xsl:if>
<xsl:if test="(umbraco.library:IsProtected($parent/@id, $parent/@path) = 0 or (umbraco.library:IsProtected($parent/@id, $parent/@path) = 1)) and $parent/@level > 1">
<ul class="kb-menuLevel{@level}" style="display: none;">
<xsl:for-each select="$parent/node [string(./data [@alias='showInMenu']) = 1]">
<li>
<a href="/kb{umbraco.library:NiceUrl(@id)}">
<xsl:value-of select="@nodeName"/>
</a>
<xsl:variable name="level" select="@level" />
<xsl:if test="(count(./node [string(./data [@alias='showInMenu']) = '1']) > 0)">
<xsl:call-template name="drawNodes">
<xsl:with-param name="parent" select="."/>
</xsl:call-template>
</xsl:if>
</li>
</xsl:for-each>
</ul>
</xsl:if>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
I suspect this could be improved using apply-templates, but I'm not yet up to speed with that (this being only the second day of my learning xslt).
My menu:
when I click on Menu Item 2 I will be taken to the page for menu Item 2 and the submenu will also be displayed:
and so on down the nested menu.
Here is some sample xml for the above.
<root>
<node id="1" nodeTypeAlias="kbHomepage" nodeName="Home" level="1">
<data alias="introduction">
<![CDATA[<p>Welcome</p>]]>
</data>
<node id="2" nodeTypeAlias="guide" nodeName="Menu Item 1" level="2">
<data alias="bodyText">
<![CDATA[<p>This is some text</p>]]>
</data>
<data alias="showInMenu">1</data>
<data alias="menuName">Menu Item 1</data>
</node>
<node id="3" nodeTypeAlias="guide" nodeName="Menu Item 2" level="2">
<data alias="bodyText">
<![CDATA[<p>This is some text</p>]]>
</data>
<data alias="showInMenu">1</data>
<data alias="menuName">Menu Item 2</data>
<node id="4" nodeTypeAlias="guide" nodeName="Menu Item 2.1" level="3">
<data alias="bodyText">
<![CDATA[<p>Some Text</p>]]>
</data>
<data alias="showInMenu">1</data>
<data alias="menuName">Menu Item 2.1</data>
</node>
<node id="5" nodeTypeAlias="guide" nodeName="Menu Item 2.2" level="3">
<data alias="bodyText">
<![CDATA[<p>Some Text</p>]]>
</data>
<data alias="showInMenu">1</data>
<data alias="menuName">Menu Item 2.2</data>
<node id="6" nodeTypeAlias="guide" nodeName="Item 2.2.1 Guide" level="4">
<data alias="bodyText">
<![CDATA[<p>Some Text</p>]]>
</data>
<data alias="showInMenu">0</data>
<data alias="menuName"></data>
</node>
</node>
</node>
<node id="8" nodeTypeAlias="guide" nodeName="Menu Item 3" level="2">
<data alias="bodyText">
<![CDATA[<p>This is some text</p>]]>
</data>
<data alias="showInMenu">1</data>
<data alias="menuName">Menu Item 3</data>
</node>
<node id="9" nodeTypeAlias="guide" nodeName="Menu Item 4" level="2">
<data alias="bodyText">
<![CDATA[<p>This is some text</p>]]>
</data>
<data alias="showInMenu">1</data>
<data alias="menuName">Menu Item 4</data>
</node>
</node>
<node id="7" nodeTypeAlias="someAlias" nodeName="Some Other Page" level="1">
<data alias="bodyText">
<![CDATA[<p>This is some text</p>]]>
</data>
</node>
</root>
edit: the following almost does what I need :
<xsl:variable name="visibleChidren" select="node[data[@alias='showInMenu'] = 1 and (@level = 2 or descendant-or-self::*[generate-id($currentPage) = generate-id(.)] or preceding-sibling::*[generate-id($currentPage) = generate-id(.)] or following-sibling::*[generate-id($currentPage) = generate-id(.)])]" />
I just need to also include the direct children from the current page.

I tried (with my very limited knowledge about Umbraco) to clean up your code a bit and remove the redundancy. It looks as though it would work with the XML sample you provided, but I cannot really test it against Umbraco.
<!DOCTYPE xsl:stylesheet [ <!ENTITY nbsp " "> ]>
<xsl:stylesheet
version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
xmlns:msxml="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xslt"
xmlns:umbraco.library="urn:umbraco.library" xmlns:Exslt.ExsltCommon="urn:Exslt.ExsltCommon" xmlns:Exslt.ExsltDatesAndTimes="urn:Exslt.ExsltDatesAndTimes" xmlns:Exslt.ExsltMath="urn:Exslt.ExsltMath" xmlns:Exslt.ExsltRegularExpressions="urn:Exslt.ExsltRegularExpressions" xmlns:Exslt.ExsltStrings="urn:Exslt.ExsltStrings" xmlns:Exslt.ExsltSets="urn:Exslt.ExsltSets" xmlns:tagsLib="urn:tagsLib" xmlns:urlLib="urn:urlLib"
exclude-result-prefixes="msxml umbraco.library Exslt.ExsltCommon Exslt.ExsltDatesAndTimes Exslt.ExsltMath Exslt.ExsltRegularExpressions Exslt.ExsltStrings Exslt.ExsltSets tagsLib urlLib ">
<xsl:output method="xml" omit-xml-declaration="yes" encoding="utf-8" />
<xsl:param name="currentPage" />
<xsl:template match="/">
<div id="kb-categories">
<h3>Categories</h3>
<xsl:apply-templates mode="list" select="/root/node[@nodeTypeAlias='kbHomepage']" />
</div>
</xsl:template>
<!-- matches anything with <node> children and creates an <ul> -->
<xsl:template match="*[node]" mode="list">
<!-- prepare a list of all visible children -->
<xsl:variable name="visibleChidren" select="node[
data[@alias='showInMenu'] = 1
and (
not(umbraco.library:IsProtected(@id, @path))
or umbraco.library:IsLoggedOn()
)
]" />
<!-- prepare a CSS class for the "selected path" -->
<xsl:variable name="display">
<xsl:if test=".//node[generate-id() = generate-id($currentPage)]">
<xsl:text>visible</xsl:text>
</xsl:if>
</xsl:variable>
<xsl:if test="$visibleChidren">
<ul class="menu kb-menuLevel{$visibleChidren[1]/@level} {$display}">
<xsl:apply-templates mode="item" select="$visibleChidren" />
</ul>
</xsl:if>
</xsl:template>
<!-- matches <node> elements and turns them into list items -->
<xsl:template match="node" mode="item">
<li>
<xsl:if test="generate-id() = generate-id($currentPage)">
<xsl:attribute name="class">selected</xsl:attribute>
</xsl:if>
<a href="/kb{{umbraco.library:NiceUrl(@id)}}">
<xsl:value-of select="@nodeName" />
</a>
<!-- if there are any child nodes, render them -->
<xsl:if test="node">
<xsl:apply-templates mode="list" select="." />
</xsl:if>
</li>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
Gives you the following. Note that I have escaped the attribute value template in <a href...
- remove the double curlies above to enable them again:
<div id="kb-categories">
<h3>Categories</h3>
<ul class="menu kb-menuLevel2 visible">
<li>
<a href="/kb{umbraco.library:NiceUrl(@id)}">Menu Item 1</a>
</li>
<li>
<a href="/kb{umbraco.library:NiceUrl(@id)}">Menu Item 2</a>
<ul class="menu kb-menuLevel3 visible">
<li class="selected">
<a href="/kb{umbraco.library:NiceUrl(@id)}">Menu Item 2.1</a>
</li>
<li>
<a href="/kb{umbraco.library:NiceUrl(@id)}">Menu Item 2.2</a>
</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>
<a href="/kb{umbraco.library:NiceUrl(@id)}">Menu Item 3</a>
</li>
<li>
<a href="/kb{umbraco.library:NiceUrl(@id)}">Menu Item 4</a>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
Now you could do in CSS:
ul.menu {
display: hidden;
}
ul.menu.visible {
display: block;
}
ul.menu li.selected {
font-weight: bold;
}
Does that help you?

Or you could solve yourself a lot of hacking about in XSLT and use the following navigation package from our.umbraco.org
This I think does everything you need and no need to get your hands dirty in the murky world of XSLT.

I figured out what I need to do what I want. The key line being:
<xsl:variable name="visibleChidren" select="node[data[@alias='showInMenu'] = 1 and (@level = 2 or descendant-or-self::*[generate-id($currentPage) = generate-id(.)] or preceding-sibling::*[generate-id($currentPage) = generate-id(.)] or following-sibling::*[generate-id($currentPage) = generate-id(.)] or parent::*[generate-id($currentPage) = generate-id(.)])]" />
From the entire xslt:
<!DOCTYPE xsl:stylesheet [ <!ENTITY nbsp " "> ]>
<xsl:stylesheet
version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"

exclude-result-prefixes="msxml umbraco.library Exslt.ExsltCommon Exslt.ExsltDatesAndTimes Exslt.ExsltMath Exslt.ExsltRegularExpressions Exslt.ExsltStrings Exslt.ExsltSets tagsLib urlLib ">
<xsl:output method="xml" omit-xml-declaration="yes"/>
<xsl:param name="currentPage"/>
<xsl:variable name="currentLevel" select="$currentPage/@level" />
<xsl:template match="/">
<div id="kb-categories">
<h3>Categories</h3>
<xsl:apply-templates mode="list" select="$currentPage/ancestor-or-self::node [@nodeTypeAlias = 'kbHomepage']" />
</div>
</xsl:template>
<!-- matches anything with <node> children and makes a list out of them -->
<xsl:template match="node" mode="list">
<!-- select only sub-nodes that have 'showInMenu' = 1 -->
<xsl:variable name="visibleChidren" select="node[data[@alias='showInMenu'] = 1 and (@level = 2 or descendant-or-self::*[generate-id($currentPage) = generate-id(.)] or preceding-sibling::*[generate-id($currentPage) = generate-id(.)] or following-sibling::*[generate-id($currentPage) = generate-id(.)] or parent::*[generate-id($currentPage) = generate-id(.)])]" />
<xsl:if test="$visibleChidren">
<ul>
<xsl:apply-templates mode="item" select="$visibleChidren" />
</ul>
</xsl:if>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="node" mode="item">
<li>
<a href="/kb{umbraco.library:NiceUrl(@id)}">
<xsl:value-of select="@nodeName"/>
</a>
<xsl:apply-templates mode="list" select="." />
</li>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
