Hi. I have a few pages that are linked under two of my top level categories. The problem is that both categories get highlighted when I go to those pages. I only want pagematch to work under one top level category and ignore the other. I've tried the following with no success.
pagematch=/null;pagecolor=null;pagebgcolor=null;
Is it possible to do what I want? Otherwise I will be forced to remove the page from one of the categories. The nomatch option that Andy mentioned in another thread would be perfect! Btw, my styles are in a separate style sheet using the offclass, onclass, and pageclass options.
Disable pagematch for specific items?
Hi gzip,
I'd have to see the page and files to be able to figure out a solution. Have you tried pagematch=none? Or the option you mentioned?
EDIT: I was wondering, wouldn't using any no page match mean they wouldn't match at anytime? Have you considered duplicating the pages if there are not too many, and naming one page.htm and the other page1.htm? That way there wouldn't be the match on both categories. I think....

Hi,
I can't think how you would do it using pagematch. In effect you want the menu to say, if item 4 [link to page1] of submenu1 match submenu1 and the parent item of submenu 1, else if item 2 [link to page1, also] of submenu 5 match submenu 5 and the parent item of submenu 5; and also you want the code to not match the opposite item than the one clicked. That's what it seems to me. So, I think you'd need some kind of function to get that behaviour.
There is a text 'breadcrumb' function which sort of does that, but it doesn't give you the 'color' matching of the menu, rather it gives you text links in a div you've created above/below/to the side of the menu. What goes in that div are the text for the path you took in the menu to get where you were. Kind of like the big sites that have: You are here: home - books - library - view, and so on. Here's a demo of that function. That's all I can think to use. The div font color is black but you could make it whatever you wanted to code.
This will not work if you have only images as your menu items. It has to have text.
Hope that helps.

Sure thing.
Code: Select all
with(milonic=new menuname("grad")){
aI("text=Course Descriptions;url=/courses/grad.php?grad;");
}
with(milonic=new menuname("courses")){
aI("text=Course Descriptions;url=/courses/grad.php;");
}
Hi,
Looks like the menu is picking up on the =/courses/grad.php part.
Try adding a dummy query string to the other menu item, like this:
