PHP - Help With Dynamic Menu Highlighting
Hi all, my first post here (except my intro post earlier today).
I looked for this in the Code Snippet section and didn't see it, and honestly I'm very much a noob at this (for now, at least) so I'm not quite sure what I'd look for anyway. I've got a decent grasp on HTML and CSS and very little PHP. So here's what I need help with: I wrote a simple PHP include so that all my main pages (including the index file) would all use the same file (navtabs.php) for their navigation tabs. But how do I make the code in navtabs.php dynamic for which button should be highlighted on the proper page? Here is the code snippet for my navigation: Code: [Select] <nav> <ul> <li><a href="index.php" class="current">Home</a></li> <li><a href="page-two.php" >Page Two</a></li> <li><a href="page-three.php">Page Three</a></li> <li><a href="page-four.php">Page Four</a></li> <li class="last"><a href="page-five.php">Page Five</a></li> </ul> </nav> Where class="current" is the highlighting attribute. All my pages using the same include of this code show the Home tab highlighted? Hoping someone has a simple fix for me. Thanks! Similar TutorialsHello, I got this basic code from a website and it is supposed to highlight the current page on the menu, which it does very well. The problem is that I cannot stylize the font, color or size of the type in the current page menu display. No matter what I do, it always stays as the default font. The other buttons on the menu can be stylized but not the current page. Is there a way to do this? Code: [Select] ## SNIPPET 1 - THE PHP ## // To be saved in the 'includes' directory as "nav_include.php" <?php $menu=file_get_contents("includes/menu.html"); // get the navigation list of pages $base=basename($_SERVER['PHP_SELF']); // get the current page $menu=preg_replace("|<li><a href=\"".$base."\">(.*)</a></li>|U", "<li id=\"current\">$1</li>", $menu); // add an id of 'active' to the link and id of class to the list item for the current page echo $menu; // echo the HTML list with the current page highlighted ?> ## SNIPPET 2 - THE HTML LIST ## To be saved as menu.html <ul id="navlist"> <li><a href="index.php">Home</a></li> <li><a href="products.php">Products</a></li> <li><a href="services.php">Services</a></li> <li><a href="about.php">About Us</a></li> <li><a href="contact.php">Contact Us</a></li> </ul> ## CSS ## for the *.css file #navlist { margin: 0; padding: 30px 0 20px 10px; float: right; width: 60%; } #navlist ul, #navlist li { margin: 0; padding: 0; display: inline; list-style-type: none; } #navlist a:link, #navlist a:visited { float: left; line-height: 14px; font-weight: bold; margin: 0 10px 4px; text-decoration: none; color: #4F4F4F; width: auto; } /* link and visited link styles - the visited state can be styled separately if you wish */ #navlist a:link#current, #navlist a:visited#current, #navlist a:hover { border-bottom: 4px solid #66733f; padding-bottom: 2px; background: transparent; color: #4F4F4F; } /* this line's the style for the current page link */ #navlist a:hover { border-bottom: 4px solid #4F4F4F; color: #4F4F4F; } /* hover state for all the links */ ## TO DISPLAY ON THE PAGE ## <?php include("includes/nav_include.php"); ?> Hi,I used bootstrap to create a webpage and one of the special effects is when you scroll down the page the section you are at is highlighted in the menu. This seems to work ok for all of my sections except the About Me section in which case the next section down (resume) is highlighted instead.
Here is the specific area on the page (http://www.inspired-...p#section-about).
I was wondering if anyone familiar with Boostrap and the Amoeba theme had any suggestions on a fix for this.
thanks in advance.
I'm trying to make my menu dynamic for example I will have a menu with it's submenus and when the user logs on the submenu account will then be shown where it wasn't shown before the user logged on. here is my submenu.controller Code: [Select] <?php class submenus_controller extends controller{ protected $_helpers = array('form', 'html'); protected $_observers = array('seo_uris'); public $model='submenus'; public function ajax_set_submenu($submenu_id){ $submenu=$this->_model->get($submenu_id); $_SESSION['submenu']=$submenu; } } ?> and here is my default page Code: [Select] <!doctype html> <!--[if lt IE 7]> <html class="no-js ie6 oldie" lang="en"> <![endif]--> <!--[if IE 7]> <html class="no-js ie7 oldie" lang="en"> <![endif]--> <!--[if IE 8]> <html class="no-js ie8 oldie" lang="en"> <![endif]--> <!--[if gt IE 8]><!--> <html class="no-js" lang="en"> <!--<![endif]--> <head> <title><?php echo $this->get_title();?></title> <meta name="author" content="team digitalpro"> <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width,initial-scale=1"> <meta name = "Description" content = "<?php echo $this->get_description();?>" /> <meta name = "Keywords" content = "<?php echo $this->get_keywords(); ?>" /> <link rel="stylesheet" href="/css/style.css"> <script src="js/libs/modernizr-2.0.6.min.js"></script> </head> <body> <div id="container"> <header> <div class="inhoud"> <div id="logo"><a href="/"><img src="/img/logo.gif" width="306" height="126" border="0" /></a></div> <nav> <div class="menu"> <ul> <?php if (isset($this->_params['menus']) && is_array($this->_params['menus'])){ foreach ($this->_params['menus'] as $menu){ if (!empty($menu['submenus.page_id'])){ $uri=$this->get_uri('/pages/view/'.$menu['submenus.page_id']); }else{ $uri=$this->get_uri("/{$menu['submenus.controller']}/{$menu['submenus.action']}"); } // p($menu); ?> <li><a href="<?php echo $uri ?>" onclick="javascript:return setMenu(<?php echo $menu['id'] ?>);"><?php echo strtoupper($menu['name'])?></a></li> <?php } } ?> </ul> </div> </nav> </div> </header> <div id="hero-pic"> <div id="slogans"><img src="../img/slogans.png" width="277" height="214" /></div> <img src="../img/hero.gif" width="996" height="286" /></div> <main> <div id="left"> <div class="inhoud"> <div id="left-nav"> <ul> <?php if (isset($this->_params['submenus']) && is_array($this->_params['submenus'])){ foreach ($this->_params['submenus'] as $submenu){ if (!empty($submenu['page_id'])){ $uri=$this->get_uri('/pages/view/'.$submenu['page_id']); }else{ $uri=$this->get_uri("/{$submenu['controller']}/{$submenu['action']}"); } ?> <li<?php if ($_SESSION['submenu']['id'] == $submenu['id']){?> class="active"<?php ;} ?>> <a href="<?php echo $uri ?>" onclick="javascript:return setSubMenu(<?php echo $submenu['id'] ?>);"> <?php echo strtoupper($submenu['name'])?> </a> </li> <?php } } ?> </ul> </div> <form method="post" action=""> <input type="text" id="search" /> <input type="submit" name="button" value="GO" class="go" /> </form> <div class="sub-links"> <ul> <li><a href="#">Home</a></li> <li><a href="#">Contact us</a></li> <li><a href="#">Sitemap</a></li> <li><a href="#">Privacy policy</a></li> </ul> </div> </div> </div> <div id="right"> <div class="inhoud"> <?php echo $this->page('view') ?> </div> </div> </main> <footer> <!-- <div class="inhoud"> <ul> <li><a href="#">COMPANY </a></li> <li><a href="#">PRIVATE EQUITY </a></li> <li><a href="#">CONSULTING </a></li> <li><a href="#">INVEST </a></li> <li><a href="#">PARTNERS </a></li> <li><a href="#">NEWS</a></li> </ul> --> <p> </p> <p> </p> </div> </footer> </div> <script src="//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.6.2/jquery.min.js"></script> <script>window.jQuery || document.write('<script src="/js/libs/jquery-1.6.2.min.js"><\/script>')</script> <script defer src="/js/plugins.js"></script> <script defer src="/js/script.js"></script> <script> window._gaq = [['_setAccount','UAXXXXXXXX1'],['_trackPageview'],['_trackPageLoadTime']]; Modernizr.load({ load: ('https:' == location.protocol ?

I need a php page that is splitted into 2 screens. One will display the navigation menu and the second one is the iframe. As for the navigation menu, I am getting the list of all files in the current directory with readdir(). Then I create an array with all of the items that are folders (is_dir() function) and apply the same script on them. My problem is to correctly display all of the information I gather in an adequate manner. Can anyone help me with that? Also if anyone has ready-to-go scripts, I would highly appreciate that too. Also, once a user choose a file, it should be loaded in the iframe. How do I specify "src" attribute for the iframe, in that case? Thanks! I want make the following, (I have already a database with three tables (Countries, Timeline and Category)). 1: list of countries (drop down menu 1), Timeline of the countries history (drop down 2) and Category (drop down 3). 2: The selected values of the drop down menus must show take the information from the database. Can any one help me with the coding? Hello PHPfreaks! I build a website for a company way back when I was still learning basic PHP! Now unfortunaly the webhost has decided to change their security settings, specifically chaning the allow_url_include and allow_fopen_include to off! That however breaks the website that I did, since i am using the following code in calling the various menus around the website: Code: [Select] include(''$site_url'menu.php?menuid=1'); Now I am well aware that this is not the best way to include a menu! ohhh yeah btw, the code for the menu.php file is: Code: [Select] <?php include('config.php'); $menuid = mysql_real_escape_string($_GET['menuid']); $menu_categories = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM " .$db_prefix. "menucategories WHERE id='".$menuid."'"); while($menu_cat = mysql_fetch_array($menu_categories)) { if($menu_cat['display_name'] == "") { $menu = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM " .$db_prefix. "menu WHERE cat = ".$menu_cat['id']." ORDER BY placement ASC"); echo "<ul>"; while($menu_rows = mysql_fetch_array($menu)) { echo "<li><a href='" .$menu_rows['URL']. "' class='".$menu_cat['name']."' >" .$menu_rows['name']. "</a></li>"; } echo "</ul>"; } else { echo "<h4>" .$menu_cat['display_name']. "</h4>"; $menu = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM " .$db_prefix. "menu WHERE cat = ".$menu_cat['id']." ORDER BY placement ASC"); echo "<ul>"; while($menu_rows = mysql_fetch_array($menu)) { echo "<li><a href='" .$menu_rows['URL']. "' class='".$menu_cat['name']."' >" .$menu_rows['name']. "</a></li>"; } echo "</ul>"; } } ?> So i build the website so that you call the various menus around in the website using the menu.php include and setting a variable based on a ID (i.e menu.php?menuid=2) and of course using variables in the URL name you need to define a complete URL in the include, which now with the hosting companies new security policy doesn't work! SO BASICALLY! What I am trying to ask: Is there any alternative to include menu.php?menuid=XX without using the absolute URL? Hi All, I have a snippet of code (below) which I use to create a dynamic menu from a MySQL database for a community website. Fields used in the database a ID parent (what the parent page is) page_order (what is says on the tin) short_title (a short title for the page for the URL) title (the page title - used as the text for the link) content (the content for the page) I have got the dynamic list to display fine, but what I would like to be able to do is give each list item a 'class' tag when it has been selected (and thus is the page being shown). Can anyone suggest how to amend the below code to allow this? Code is: Code: [Select] <!-- ##### START LIST_INFO_PAGES ##### --> <?php include("../config/config.php"); ?> <?php $sql = "SELECT * FROM `PCNET_$filename` WHERE parent = 'council' ORDER BY page_order ASC"; $sql_result = mysql_query ($sql, $connection ) or die ('request "Could not execute SQL query" '.$sql); while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($sql_result)) { print ''; if ($row["status"]<>'') { echo '<li><a href="../council-indiv.php?id='; echo ($row["id"]).'&short_title='; echo nl2br(stripslashes(utf8_decode($row["short_title"]))).'" title='; echo nl2br(stripslashes(utf8_decode($row["title"]))).'>'; echo nl2br(stripslashes(utf8_decode($row["title"]))).'</a></li>'; }; }; ?> <!-- ##### END LIST_INFO_PAGES ##### --> Help will be welcome! Neil I am building a site using PHP, OOP, and an MVC framework. i am not using laravel, codeignitor, or any other framework, I am building this on my own. I am a newbie to mvc and so I am learning how it all works. I have a dynamic nav menu that populates the categories from the db. The menu/categories will populate and work fine when I view the nav page on its own, but it will not work when it is included in the index view page. What should I do to make the dynamic menu view on all the view pages that i need it to? Below is my code, any guidance would be greatly appreciated. Controller: class Behindthescenes extends Controller { public function __construct() { $this->btsModel = $this->model('mBehindthescene'); } public function index() { $data = [ 'title' => 'Admin Dashboard', ]; $this->view('/behindthescenes/index', $data); } // Get categories for nav menu public function bts_cat_nav() { $catnav = $this->btsModel->getCatsNav(); $data = [ 'catnav' => $catnav, ]; $this->view('/includes/bts_cat_nav', $data); } } Model: class mBehindthescene { private $db; public function __construct() { $this->db = new DBC; } // Get Categories for Admin Navigation public function getCatsNav() { $this->db->query('SELECT * FROM categories ORDER BY cat_name ASC'); $result = $this->db->fetchMultiple(); return $result; } } Index View: require_once APPROOT .

i have created a seating system. based on the number of seats booked that value is passed to a page that dynamicly produces a drop down box for each seat booked so the type of seat price can be assigned. this part works fine. the problem i have is how do i code the recieving page not knowing how many values are going to be passed? this is the drop down menu page Thanks Code: [Select] <form action="payment.php?seatco=<?php echo $s_count; ?>" method="post" name="f1"> <div id="tick_select"> <?php for($i=1; $i<=$s_count; $i++){ $tick= mysql_query("select * from ticket_list"); ?> <select name="tick_com<?php echo $i; ?>" id="tick_com" onChange="" title="Choose A Ticket"> <option value="">Select Ticket type</option> <?php while($result= mysql_fetch_assoc($tick)) { ?> <?php echo '<option value="'.$result[ticket_id].'" name="'.$result[price].'">'.$result[type].'</option>';?> <?php }}?> </select> </div> <INPUT TYPE="submit" VALUE="Select"> </form> Hi all. I'm working on a project that requires a 3 tier navigation menu that's dynamic and I'm not quite sure where to start with it. The structure of the menu is like so... A unique list of Parent-Modules Tier1: Parent-Module1 Each parent module has a second tier menu that appears upon clicking a parent module. Each parent module has a unique list of tier 2 sub modules Tier 2: Sub-Module1 - Sub-Module2 Each sub module has a third tier menu that appears upon clicking a sub module. Each sub module has a unique list of tier 3 child modules Tier 3: Child-Module1 - Child-Module2 - Child-Module3 A visual: Parent (each parent module has this structure) | |--------Sub Module | |-Child Module 1 | |-Child Module 2 | |-Child module 3 |--------Sub Module | |-Child Module 1 | |-Child Module 2 | |-Child module 3 |--------Sub Module |-Child Module 1 |-Child Module 2 |-Child module 3 Every tier has to be dynamic as the module names/locations are often changed. My thought is to use opendir/readdir in order to build the tiers based on what files exist, but I'm not sure if this is a safe/reliable practice. Any input would be a great help. EDIT: The navigation links would have to have "pretty" names (e.g. Business Processes instead of business_processes). hii,everyone... i am new to the forum ..so forgive me if i make some errors in describing my problem i want to create a drop down menu...the values of which i want to retrieve from a table i have created in my database... i have been able to acheive this...but i want a second drop down menu...in which i want the values to get filtered according to the selection of the first drop down menu... i hav a table with the name test...which i am connecting to the first drop down menu i hav created another table with the name testtype...for second menu.. the id of first table is the testid of second... plzz help me with creating the second menu... my code is Code: [Select] <?php $sql_result = "select test_series FROM test"; $result = mysql_query($sql_result); ?> <td>Select Test Series </td> <td> <select name="testseries" id="testseries" )"> <option>Select</option> <?php if(mysql_num_rows($result)) { while($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) { $test = $row['test_series'];?> <option><?php echo $test ?></option> <?php } } else {?> <option>No Names Present</option>"; <?php } ?> </select> </td> </tr> <tr> <?php $testseries = $_POST['testseries']; $query = "select id from test where test_series = '$testseries'"; $resultt = mysql_query($query) or die(mysql_error()); $row = mysql_fetch_array($resultt); $id = $row['id']; $sql_result = "select test_name FROM testtype where testid = $id"; $result = mysql_query($sql_result); ?> <td>Select Test Name </td> <td> <select name="testtype"> <option>Select</option> <?php if(mysql_num_rows($result)) { while($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) { $test2 = $row['test_name'];?> <option><?php echo $test2 ?></option> <?php } } else {?> <option>No Names Present</option>"; <?php } ?> </select> </td> </tr> IN THIS CODE I AM GETTIN AN ERROR Undefined index: testseries in ..addques.php on line 155 WHICH IS THIS ONE $testseries = $_POST['testseries']; Hey Guys, I'm building a site and I need a drop down menu created dynamicly....

The menu and submenu are stored in the same database and the parent_id is equal to the id for the sub-menus . Parent_id = 0 means it's a main menu. Help! I'm trying to create a dynamic option menu with one alert selected based on the first query to the db. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

"\"> if($row1['alertid']==$row['alert1']) { echo ' selected'; } ".$row1['name']."</option>"; } return $selects; } Hi guys, I'm still not having any luck with coming up with an idea of how to make my multi-level drop down menu work with items from a database. I don't necessarily need code, but an idea of how to make it work, so any ideas are welcome. The table: Column Descriptions: id - The unique id label - The text to display link - The link to be used relation - I cannot remember why I wanted that... just disregard it parent - The parent item's id (0 for no parent) sort - A sort number for the item (ascending) active - 0 for false, 1 for true (not implemented yet, will add a WHERE `active` = 1 into the sql later) depth - How many parent items there are Now, here's what it has to do (the class): Grab items from the database (sorted by depth, parent, and sort) Place the children in a child array of the parents (or however it can be sorted) Implode the array and turn it into an html menu with the below structure Menu HTML Structure Code: [Select] <div id="menu"> <ul> <li><h2>Level 1 A</h2> <ul> <li><a href="?r=level2/a">Level 2 A</a> <ul> <li><a href="?r=level3/a">Level 3 A</a></li> <li><a href="?r=level3/b">Level 3 B</a></li> </ul> </li> </ul> </li> <li><a href="?r=level1/b"><h2>Level 1 B</h2></a></li> </ul> </div> And here is the code I have so far, but I can't figure out how to get the children into the parent array, or at least sort it so that I can achieve the above HTML structure. Thank you in advance for your help, and as I said above, I don't necessarily need code, but an idea of how to make it work, so any ideas are welcome. I am having a lot of trouble with this code, and I have no clue how to fix it. Right now, I have a GUI for a fictitious car dealership that has 5 populated drop down menus called Make, Model, Year, Color, and Mileage.

The code will bring up the GUI, but once I hit the submit button, I get the following errors Please if anyone can help me that would be fantastic. I really have no clue Hi there.
