Hi,
I am trying to code a menu for a webpage, the menu is broken up to groups
i.e:
Home
Group1
Â*menuitem1
Â*menuitem2
Â*menuitem3
Group2
Â*Â*menuitem1
Â*Â*menuitem2
Â*menuitem3
And so on.
What I want to achieve is that the groups are shown in a collapsed state
depending on the page which is currently being displayed i.e so it starts
out like this
Home
Group1
Group2
If you click on Group1 it loads the first menuitem page and highlights it
and redraws the page expanding that group i.e. (note * denotes highligthed)
Home
Group1
Â*Â*menuitem1
Â*Â*Â*menuitem2
Â*Â*Â*menuitem3 Â*
Group2
And the same would apply if you click on Group2 i.e:
Home
Group1
Group2
Â*Â*menuitem1
Â*Â*Â*Â*menuite m2
Â*Â*Â*Â*menuite m3Â*
What is the best way to go about this? I have coded it 'the long way' where
there is lots of duplication of code.
I hope this all makes sense and that I have explained it clearly.
I am new to php so would really appreciate your help as I am totally at a
loss on how to best do this.
Many thanks

Using includes should make it quite easy - even for a newbie like me .
blah.php?pass=1 on your main group link .
Assuming you have the nav menu as a include you could do a 'if' and if
the value is 1 then display the extra sub menu links .
Although , You would need the ?pass=1 on all the sub links as well or
the sub menu would disappear when you clicked on sub link .
As a fellow php newbie i've found getting stuff working first and then
trying to tweak and fine tune it later can be useful .

Then try it at normal speed :-))
Thank you thats exactly what I was trying to achieve, I will look over the
code and see if I understand it. Like Geoff said it doesn't work in
Firefox though, but I will look in to that.
I really appreciate you taking the time to help me with this.

Putting a <br> at the end of the <a> tags would probably sort it .
Fartfox often screws things up :-)

Either way the following is probably a better way of doing it as it does
away with 2 include files .
inc_nav.php
<?php $rigga = $_GET['pass']; ?>
<a href="index.php " class="butnav"> HOME</a><br>
<a href="group_one .php?pass=1" class="butnav"> GROUP ONE</a><br>
<?php if ($rigga==1) {g_one();} ?>
<a href="group_two .php?pass=2" class="butnav"> GROUP TWO</a><br>
<?php if ($rigga==2) {g_two();} ?>
<a href="index.php " class="butnav"> HOME</a><br>
<?php
function g_one()
{
print "<a href=index.php? pass=1 class=butnav>.. ... GROUP ONE</a><br>";

}

Hi guys,
I've got a page that shows a number of packages available for sale. Each
package has a little description, and then a (sometimes long) list of
features for each package. I thought it would be a good idea to let
visitors hide the details for each package, so that they can see just
the summaries together. So I borrowed some code (can't remember from
where), which was designed for expandable/collapsible menu trees, and

How many spaces should be displayed in
A <span style="display:none">x</span> B
between "A" and "B"? I notice that Mozilla displays one space
and Internet Explorer (5 & 6) displays two spaces. See

for a cumulative effect.
Why is this important? Instead of "span", think of the "rp" element

Hello,
I am looking to denormalize XML into a few tables, does anyone know of
open source software that I can use to map the collapsing and then
generate the SQL ? I know xmlspy does this but looking to see if there
are alternatives. My goal is to load the large XML data files into a
database, but in some cases, the raw XML produces around 800 tables
which is unmanageable.

Using the collapsing in vb.net 2003 shows the whole interface of the

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
