tep_href_link Dramas

[shooter-boy]

Hi All,

 

I am using a Java dropdown menu on my site, and I am trying to link up all the categories properly.

 

It is very similar to the one at the top of the osC forums page here (the multi coloured menu).

I clicked on view source and all of there links are done with a simple href command, so that doesn't help me.

 

If i try and use the tep_href_link function then it breaks the menu.

 

If anyone has any suggestions, it would be much appreciated.

 

Thanks in advance.

Are you putting the links as

 

<a href=<?php tep_href_link ... ?> ... </a>

No, dynamenu is not what i want (from what i could tell).

 

I want a menu like the one at the top of the forum (which i have now done, i just can't tep link it - normal href links are fine).

 

I couldn't find a working version of the dynamenu setup the way that i wanted. Can anyone help?

As far as I can tell. I tried every bit on Syntax i could find.

Okay trying to rule out the obvious things first

 

Are you calling the script from the index.php file or are you including it in the header.php file?

 

Where does the script break?

 

Is this a script that is available for download somewhere ? This will make debugging easier.

 

If not can you post a couple of your lines as is for us to view the syntax of what you are trying to accomplish?

Neither actually. I am using STS, so everything is done in the template files.

 

I am not sure where it breaks, it doesn't give me an error. All it does is not work!

 

The script I am using is AnyLink Drop Down Menu- ? Dynamic Drive (www.dynamicdrive.com).

 

Does that help?

I am not familiar with STS, but I can make a mod for the Anylink...

 

Will get back with you...

Looks straight forward enough... we need to build the array defined in the header... we already do that for the standard menu we just need to pass the variables to the script

 

We are going to be recoding the building of that array

Hi Allenm

 

Thanks for your help.

 

Unfortunately I don't have the knowledge to do it!

 

If you can advise a workaround i would be most grateful.
