hello!
i have a problem and spent hours for resolving them.
i want to use more or less a mix of the sample navigations:
the one with frames with links centered and the otherone with subdirectories.

i have the site here:
--> http://members.catv4u.at/t/trumme/ROOT/

the "Home" link opens Hotmail (Target: top)
The "Termine" link should open one side of a subdirectory in the bottom. It works, but when i click on this link, the navigation becomes inactive. i would have to work it as the example with the subdirectories: there the links are still activated after choosing a site in the bottom.

Maybe somebody could help me? maybe you could send me an answer with the right code for the site (termine.html).

thanks
walter

Hello and welcome to the forums!

Well, here's what you have missed:

1) Open the 'navigation/s_loader.js' file and edit it like this:

s_The_Arrays_Source=ROOT+'navigation/s_arrays.js';// the source of the menu definitions
s_Script_DOM_Source=ROOT+'navigation/s_script_dom.js';// the source of your script
s_Script_NS4_Source=ROOT+'navigation/s_script_ns4.js';
s_Script_OLD_Source=ROOT+'navigation/s_script_old.js';
s_Any_Add_On_Source=ROOT+'navigation/s_fs_addon.js';// if you need any add-on

2) Open the 'navigation/s_arrays.js' file and make sure you have set all your links using the ROOT variable. E.g. like this:

{U:ROOT+'sites/aktuelles/termine/termine.html',T:'Termine'},

Your 'navigation/top.html', 'navigation/bottom.html' and 'sites/aktuelles/termine/termine.html' pages ARE set up correctly so you don't have to touch them.

Please let me know if you still have any problems after you make these changes.

Cheers!

hello and thank you for your reply!!

i changed the files but now the dropdown menue doesn't appear.

here is the page if you like to see it:
--> http://members.catv4u.at/t/trumme/ROOT/

if i click on the main menue like (home or termine), the menue dissappears completely.

i zipped all files if you would like to see them:
--> http://members.catv4u.at/t/trumme/ROOT/ROOT.zip

thank you for helping me. i like to use the menue for my school. until now I have a navigation that works, but it needs java runtimes and that is not very useful for all visitors.

so long, thank you

I took a look. You will just have to add the ROOT variable in the "navigation/bottom.html" file.

Just add it like this:

<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript">
<!--
function s_show(){return false}
function s_hide(){return false}
if(window.event+''=='undefined')event=0
ROOT='../'
//-->
</script>

Please note that this variable MUST exist on all pages that will be loaded in your bottom frame and are supposed to have menus.
