Adam,
Edit album _> theme tab -> 'Blocks to show in the sidebar' add 'album quick links [DHTML]'
That will give you a DHTML menu of the albums. There is also some options for the menu as well.

Thx for the Re: Floridave I have the carbon blackjack theme I switched the theme tab blocks and it added something I didnt expect and not what Im looking for.
Im sending you an image which shows the dtree in action and the actual code in the in HTML. HTML added the light purple area as javascript but every time I place it in the album.tpl it does not appear on my gallery page. Do you know where I need to add this code destroydrop.com for the downloaded file
theme.tpl added
<head>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="dtree.css"/>
<script type="text/javascript" src="dtree.js"></script>
</head>
album.tpl added
<div class="dtree">
<p>
<a href="javascript: a.openAll();">open all</a> |<a href="javascript: a.closeAll();">close all</a>
</p>
<script type="text/javascript">
a = new dTree('a');
a.config.useCookies=true;
a.add(0,-1,'Tree example','javascript: void(0);');
a.add(1, 0,'Node 1','javascript:void(0);');
a.add(2, 1,'Node 2','javascript:void(0);');
a.add(3, 0,'Node 3','javascript:void(0);');
a.add(4, 2,'Node 4','javascript:void(0);');
a.add(5, 3,'Node 5','javascript:void(0);');
a.add(6, 4,'Node 6','javascript:void(0);');
a.add(7, 2,'Node 7','javascript:void(0);');
a.add(8, 6,'Node 8','javascript:void(0);');
a.add(9, 0,'Node 9','javascript:void(0);');
a.add(10, 4,'Node 10','javascript:void(0);');
a.add(11, 5,'Node 11','javascript:void(0);');
a.add(12, 8,'Node 12','javascript:void(0);');
a.add(13, 0,'Node 13','javascript:void(0);');
a.add(14, 8,'Node 14','javascript:void(0);');
document.write(a);
</script>
</div>

1. Your first post showed me the DHTML menu that we have (also called dtree) in the sidebar of matrix theme.
2. Now you tell me you have a
a third party theme, that I have not used.
Did you try the matix theme with the tree in the sidebar?
3. Do you want the albums to show in the DHTML tree or some other links?
4. I am not going to coe this for you. You can try to read up on adding javascript to .tpl files:
Surround your javascript with {literal}{/literal} tags. See the smarty docs.

I assumed that you knew that you could add block to various views and locations.
Well I tried the carbon theme (although it was to g2.2)
You can add the DHTML tree on the album page:
see and example:

Do you have the album select block module activated?

I have seen others ask for the module but I have no idea where it is or how to download it along with activating the module. My next question is where and how to activate the album select module?
You have gave me great support floridave.

site admin -> modules
if you dont see the album select module in the 'blocks' section you will need to download it:

Hello,
i try the same with the slider theme.
I want to include the datatree block in the template theme. But i found this code:
{g->block type="albumselect.AlbumTree"}
that have i inserted in the tpl file, but i cant see it.
So what can the problem be?
thanks

umbroboy Hi,
What floridave guided me to do is download the album select from the downloads section in Gallery and copy and paste the album select folder into the main module folder using FTP (I use Dreamweaver). Then Log into your admin and install/configure the album select. Now you are ready to add the {g->block type="albumselect.AlbumTree"}
into your .tpl. I have found that I could place this code either in the sidebar.tpl or the album.tpl right below the first <class="BreadCrumb-1"> or somewhere below that. Dont forget to
Once you add <div class="block-albumselect-AlbumTree gbBlock">
then dtree will automatically appear in your gallery
dtree
