Thanks so much Adrian for this info, I did check the commit log for file htmlMenuMacroLibrary.html, yet I still do not know how to make it effective, for now I'm still using 12.04, and it's the java file that still controls the menu html template. I updated and compiled the java file and made the menu template the format I wanted, though.
