site mapping and javascript

I have a site with javascript navigation menus (it's in the design spec).
There's a bit too many pages to do a bread crumb type alternate nav, and no
natural index page for each site section.

I'm thinking of linking to a site map (server driven) that would highlight
the position in the site as a no javascript alternative.

Ideas or comments???

Nowadays you can start with a static HTML navigation which is then
changed with the use the DOM to your JavaScript based navigation. That
way you can have seach machines index your site while providing
pull-down or fly-out menus or whatever javascript navigation you want to
achieve.

Seems like the right thing to do. The pages are static (although server
generated) and would need to rebuild or use SSI everytime a page is added to
the site.

Cheers,
Jeff

I would like to redesign my existing site into php using classes. I am not the most experienced developer with PHP, and would like to know if anyone can give me some input on a starting point for a class library. Basically, the idea is to have as much of the content served dynamically, using a mySQL database. My catalog site has grown to over 1,100 pages, and is continuing to grow. It's getting ridiculous to keep performing manual...

Take a look at the new www.amtrak.com site. It looks like all pages are built dynamically using javascript. All of the page sources look the same.

Hello, I have a large commerce app, hosted for several hundred companies (i.e. each "company" is a small business selling something through my site, independent of all the others). Each company has a unique ID (e.g. 12345), which is a primary key in the tables for products, customers, etc. That key also identifies company-specific customization of my site, such as text strings, various styles, etc.

Hi all, I guess this a bit OT as it really applies to websites in general - but a solution to the problem might itself be PHP related. The problem is this: even though I try to manage the release process, there are inevitably files (css/javascript/php/images/html) which drop off the map when a released project is actively being developed. Mapping the live site using a conventional web-crawler is not a very viable solution since some...

Hi, I have a confusing problem. I have written a web application that uses a wildcard mapping to ..\v2.0.50727\aspnet_isapi.dll with HttpModules and HttpHandlers. All works well when I install the application as a root web site, but when I install the application on to the Default Web Site then it doesn't work - I just get errors. I have tried both installing a virtual directory and the whole default web site.

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
