 Topic: Expand/Collapse Menu with a landing pagePosted: 15-December-2005 at 4:58pm |

How can a make the expand/collapse dynamic menu of top categories (on the side bar) to link to a landing page, instead of just expanding/collapsing the menu? I would like my visitors to go to a landing (sub-home, if you will) page when they click on the top categories of the dynamic menu, instead of the javascript functionality only. Thanks!! Christina |

I might have done something like what you are looking for if so it was not too hard.
Check my site (click on the catalog bar on the top left of the screen) and if that is what you are looking for I will check out what I did last year to get it to do that and let you know. It does not use the expanding menus but the display of the sub catagorys in the page, remove the need for it I believe. Edited by watercrazed - 19-February-2006 at 3:38am |

Hi, can one of you share what you had to do to accomplish this. I will be doing some more research to see if I can work it out and will add it back here if I find it. |

Open the file inc_catsmenuA.asp and modifiy line 139 (line number may differ slightly) from this: response.write "<a href=""javascript:UpDown('SUB" & IDCategory2 & "')"" class=""leftnav"">" & CATDesc2 & "</a></td></tr>" & vbcrlf to this: response.write "<a href=""viewCat_m.asp?idCategory=" & IDCategory2 & " ""onClick=""UpDown('SUB" & IDCategory2 & "')"" class=""leftnav"">" & CATDesc2 & "</a></td></tr>" & vbcrlf |

Proof, open up whatever include menu file you are using (ProductCart uses inc_catsmenuA.asp by default), and get into the code in there. You will see that each sub-level menu has a padding-left style applied. Either increase the padding for each level, or add some color to each level there. Hope that helps!

This works great for me! Thanks for sharing. Also, no matter how many levels you take it to, the viewCat_m.asp should actually be a link to the layout format that you are using to display your category items. For example, I am using a horizontal layout, so I used viewCat_h.asp in the link instead. |

I had to add it to each menu & sub-menu level so that it worked as far down as the menu tree can go. If you are doing the same, just be sure to change the IDCategory2 & CATDesc2 to reflect whatever menu level you are at.
