OmniGames - Dynamic navigation menu / css layout change
(try again)... I've update the navigation menu to include content for the following:
DLC, updates, promotional, prototypes
Now... because it's a contextual menu you cannot see anything yet because it will only show the option when data exists in the database for that game!
I've also tweaked the css for the game metadata, this should mean less scrolling!
A good game to demonstrate this is Hot Shot Shorties, which had different release versions across different regions & then ultimately became the same... (marketing people!)

Enjoy :)
Update #1
I've applied the same logic to the Filters now too on the following views
Game Base, Game Revision(s) & Game Regional Differences
https://omni-games.info/gameoverview.php?grpid=GRP-29C0FB45
much cleaner!
Update #2
The "Game Revision(s)" view now includes a section called "Revision Reason:". I've catgorised these as follows:
Artwork, Expanded content, Peripheral, Update applied
You can see how it works here
https://omni-games.info/gamedata.php?grpid=GRP-8E739A08&productionState=Revision&releaseType=Revision
This is another good example too, Higurashi Daybreak Portable on the PSP, note the difference between the original limited edition & Higurashi Daybreak Portable Mega Edition
https://omni-games.info/gamedata.php?grpid=GRP-3CD95911&productionState=Revision&releaseType=Revision
Update #3
Game DLC is now included in the framework. Again to aid future data analysis there is a fixed DLC type
Extra content, Cosmetic, Currency/Points, items
You can view an example here for Ape Quest
https://omni-games.info/gamedata.php?grpid=GRP-4C55EE44&releaseType=DLC
All of this feeds into OmniScope & Omni1 too
Update #4
Preproduction is included in the metadata now too and separated from the base games! A good example of this Dr. Mario on the NES which originally started out under the title "Virus"
https://omni-games.info/gamedata.php?grpid=GRP-A4FDE5B1&productionState=Preproduction&releaseType=Base
Update #5
So the next quirk is a game was that cancelled in one region but released in others! A good example of this is New Ghostbusters II on the NES
