The menu should collapse

Change the color of the text
do one of those fancy fills behind the text

*Please ping me on rocket if a video or screenshot is needed.

A video might help

#2 Updated by Michael Reynolds about 1 year ago

In the attached video, the Jails section is open. Every time I mouse over the Jails menu option, I clicked it. More or less every time the Jails URL shows in the bottom left I clicked the Jails menu option.

I propose that when the menu is open and the section for the menu item clicked is already open, the menu should close.

Found an example of what should happen when clicking a menu entry when already at that section.
See attached Click-Alert-2018-06-12.mkv video

The attached video is an example of what I meant with "Do one of those fancy fills behind the text"
