Removing top menu when side menu is visible

Couldn't find it thru the forums. How can the top horizontal menu be hidden, when side menu is visible? Anyone figure it out? Will try to play with the code, but if someone already did it, please share the wisdom :)

Thanks in advance.

P.S. Sorry for posting in wrong section of the forum, will keep in mind next time.

In .../catalog/view/theme/default/template/common/header.tpl this part:

<?php if ($categories) { ?>

should be something like this:

<?php if ($categories) && SOMETHING HERE THAT WILL CHECK IF THE CATEGORY MODUL IS VISIBLE OR NOT { ?>

but no luck far by now. If anyone has an idea, it's worth to try.

There is a 'tick box' when you create a category, that asked if you want the category to appear in the top menu bar, if you uncheck all of the categories, so that none appear in the top menu bar ,then it disappears altogether and you're left with your sidebar menu.

Yeap, I know that, but I need the top menu to be shown on the front page, when you enter the site, and when you click on some category, then the side menu is diplayed. So I want when the side menu is displayed, the top menu to be gone.

Not sure if that is possible, since the top menu bar will always be there if you tick that little box for the parent categories. :\

the menu bar needs to be created as its own module extension, that way you could select the pages its to be displayed on.

any developer should find this easy to create a mod for.

List it as a feature request.

Place your menu where you want.

It needs only one IF check up, so if the side menu is visible, the top menu should be hidden, and that's it. But I don't know how to write the code for checking up :)
