Need 3 MYSQL Menus on one page

Sivaeb · Post by **Sivaeb** » Sat Dec 12, 2009 5:26 pm

I was looking at the use of menus in Header, Right and Left columns of three column page. But have not figured out how to use the Verticals and have header and left menus repeat the same data while the right is different. Can this be done?

Yes, it can. Unfortunately, I don't do data base menus, however, I can tell you how to set up 3 different menus on one page from the same file. With Milonic menu, you can create a main menu just by putting in alwaysvisible=1; Given that you said, columns, I have to assume you are placing each of these menus in a div, so you'd put the horizontal main menu in the header div, the vertical left menu in the left div and the vertical right menu in the right div. These menus would need to have their own names, and be set to alwaysvisible, and also to position="relative"; if you are putting them in the divs. If you are setting them absolutely based on the top and left positions, then you can just set them to alwaysvisible=1; top=whatever; left=whatever; and so on. At the top of this help forum there is a post for how to place menus relatively.

Hope this helps

Thanks Ruth. I was about to give up but found that turning off the orientation with a 0 in the Database did the Vertical Menu and a 1 the Horizontal. I will play a little more before purchase but am happy so far. I just need to figure out the Right to left submenu Placements for the right column.

By the way I used to live in Grand Terrace Riverside and Colton. But I am in Oregon now.

Hey Ruth can you put a shout out to Andy. I am having problems with the Right To Left setup for Php/Mysql set up. Thanks Robert

Got the right to left figured out but can not get my head around displaying multiple menus from Mysql database. TABLE/DIV - RELATIVE Positioned Menus - read before posting

Hi,

I've posted this to Milonic, since I don't even know how to display one menu from a database, I can't help you on displaying more than one. Andy is usually pretty quick with an answer.

Thanks Ruth, I am only a peon just beginning to delve into this world of PHP and Mysql and Java Script. But Andy has put together some wonderful code to do a lot with so little. Robert

Hi,

In order to create multiple menus; it should just be a matter of adding more menus to the project and set each main menus alwaysvisible flag to true

Please note that ANY menu, style or menu item variable can be added to the database tables. Let's say you wanted to add a property of position to the database to set the menus position to "relative" you would add a field called position to the menu table and then populate it - The menu should be smart enough to see it and use it.

HTH,
Andy

Basically, you create a new project record and then attach the menus and menu items to the project.
