URL Target

Post by face2sIX »

OK forgive me for such a simple question but where does the URL target attribute go?

THe Menu Nav is in one frame the target in another.

Sorry I dont have time to look over all the documentation to find it.




here is the entry from the menu Item Quick reference

target 35 The target property allows you to declare a menu item link destination Values: new, blank Example: target='blank';

What do I need to put in for targeting another frame?

here is an example of my menu item

aI("text=Quick Start Guides;url=Application/Instructions.cfm;target='mainFrame'");

What am I missing?
PLease just an answer
No links to other guides

Never mind

Man for a DHTML menu we pay for you guys need to get on with making more accurate documentation.

target='blank';

remove the flippen single quotes from your quick guide

this works

aI("text=Quick Start Guides;url=Application/Instructions.cfm;target=mainFrame;");

this does not

aI("text=Quick Start Guides;url=Application/Instructions.cfm;target='mainFrame';");

Sorry for the edge, I just burned an hour on this.

Hi,

Not a problem. I'd probably have been throwing something at the wall, or screaming! I'll post a note to Milonic about the issue.

For anyone searching the forum on this or a related issue, properties declared in the aI string don't get quotes.

offbgcolor="#ff0000"; is the form when declared in the style,
offbgcolor=#ff0000; is the form when placed in an aI string
