Flow Chart

Post by bobwill »

Has anyone created a script that reads thru the "Menu_data" file and creates what I would call a "flow chart" of their site? It would write to a file the directory and associated file? It would show the "text", "url" and when a "showmenu" is encountered it when then display that menu and associated "text" and "url".

Hope this makes some sense.

Hi,

Kevin worked out a site_index module which you can add to your menu. When you click the item it opens a new window with a list type menu. The only problem is that if you're items are images instead of text, it shows as undefined.

http://support.milonic.com/demos/site_index/index.htm

On the Demo I put in two home items, the first is only image, the second text and image so you can see what happens with only images.

Not sure if this is helpful or not.

I was aware of the "Site Map" capability, which I use. I will try to give a better example of what I am looking for. Think of it as a way to see all the files and their locations that you associate with menu. Example, you have a menu that has three main items, HOME, PROJECTS, CONTACTS. The following information would be displayed from a program that would process the "menu_data" file.

text=HOME
url=/index.htm
text=PROJECTS
text=Big Dam,url=/projects/proj1.htm
text=Blue Lake, url=/projects/proj2.htm
text=SMALL PROJECTS,url=showmenu=small
text=LITTLE LAKE,url=/projects/small/small1.htm
text=LITTLE DAM,url=/projects/small/small2.htm
text=CONTACTS
text=E-Mail,url=http://www.mysite.org/email.php

Hi Bob,

I think you might have to contact Milonic and put in a request for something like that. As far as I know there is nothing with that capability.
