Hi there has anyone tried this contribution? I'm at this point of it but do not understand what I have to do please if anyone is able to shed anymore light with a bit more explanation on what I need to do that would be great.

 

3.) Add the following lines to EVERY SINGLE file in your catalog-directory RIGHT AFTER THE <BODY> TAG.

(This is VERY important, if you don't add it right after the <body>-Tag, the script won't work!!).

 

So, add these 3 lines to every file in your catlog-directory between the <body>-Tag and the including of header.php:

 

<!-- coolMenu //-->

<?php require(DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'coolmenu.php'); ?>

<!-- coolMenu_eof //-->

 

After adding these lines, your files should look like this:

 

<body marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" topmargin="0" >

 

<!-- coolMenu //-->

<?php require(DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'coolmenu.php'); ?>

<!-- coolMenu_eof //-->

 

<!-- header //-->

<?php require(DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'header.php'); ?>

<!-- header_eof //-->

 

 

 

4.) Add the following line to EVERY SINGLE file in your catalog-directory between <HEAD> and </HEAD>.

(only in the /catalog directory, NOT in any further subdirectories like /catalog/includes !!).

 

<script LANGUAGE="JavaScript1.2" SRC="includes/menu_animation.js"></SCRIPT>

 

 

 

 

Thank You

Regards

Ian :thumbsup:

FTP to your server and from the document root or the catalog directory, depending on how you have it, download index.php and open it up in a text editor. At the top, after some PHP stuff, you will see this code:

 

<!doctype html public "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">
<html <?php echo HTML_PARAMS; ?>>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=<?php echo CHARSET; ?>">
<title><?php echo TITLE; ?></title>
<base href="<?php echo (($request_type == 'SSL') ? HTTPS_SERVER : HTTP_SERVER) . DIR_WS_CATALOG; ?>">
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="stylesheet.css">
</head>
<body marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" topmargin="0" bottommargin="0" leftmargin="0" rightmargin="0">
<!-- header //-->
<?php require(DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'header.php'); ?>
<!-- header_eof //-->

<!-- body //-->

 

The instructions say add the 3 lines of code between the <body> tag and the call for header.php. Like this:

 

<body marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" topmargin="0" bottommargin="0" leftmargin="0" rightmargin="0">

<!-- coolMenu //-->

<?php require(DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'coolmenu.php'); ?>

<!-- coolMenu_eof //-->

<!-- header //-->

<?php require(DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'header.php'); ?>

<!-- header_eof //-->

 

The other part, it says to add between the <head> </head> tags:

 

<head>

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=<?php echo CHARSET; ?>">

<title><?php echo TITLE; ?></title>

<base href="<?php echo (($request_type == 'SSL') ? HTTPS_SERVER : HTTP_SERVER) . DIR_WS_CATALOG; ?>">

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="stylesheet.css">

<script LANGUAGE="JavaScript1.2" SRC="includes/menu_animation.js"></SCRIPT>

</head>

 

So the whole section will look like this:

 

<!doctype html public "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">
<html <?php echo HTML_PARAMS; ?>>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=<?php echo CHARSET; ?>">
<title><?php echo TITLE; ?></title>
<base href="<?php echo (($request_type == 'SSL') ? HTTPS_SERVER : HTTP_SERVER) . DIR_WS_CATALOG; ?>">
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="stylesheet.css">
<script LANGUAGE="JavaScript1.2" SRC="includes/menu_animation.js"></SCRIPT>
</head>
<body marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" topmargin="0" bottommargin="0" leftmargin="0" rightmargin="0">
<!-- coolMenu //-->
<?php require(DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'coolmenu.php'); ?>
<!-- coolMenu_eof //-->
<!-- header //-->
<?php require(DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'header.php'); ?>
<!-- header_eof //-->

<!-- body //-->

 

Now the place where you found index.php, you will see a load more .php files. You need to make the same changes to all those files, then upload them again overwriting the existing ones.

i'd like to see a screenshot of this mod before i do it as well <_<

 

You know what, that is part of the fun of osC.

 

I have a local XAMPP set up and being as osC is Open Source and absolutely free, I have dev stores just to test contributions.

Most contributions have the stock files modified for you to drop into a stock store so you don't need to combe through code. It takes a couple of minutes to install a new instance of osC so if you want to see what a mod does or looks like, take it for a test drive.

 

Go on, enjoy yourself!
