Gentlemen,
What syntax would you enter into the "menu" table to make a native .ccp page call within a CodeCharge Studio application using the CCS menu applications from Example Pack 2?
Thanks,
Wayne

Wayne,
If I understood you correctly, you would need to include the menu page into your menu table. Select "Include Page" from the Toolbox (Forms).

Peter,
The CSS Horizontal Menu table in Example Pack 2 has the following fields:
Menu_ID
Menu_Name
Menu_ID_Parent
Menu_Link
The example only shows Menu_Links like this "http://support.yessoftware.com or a # sign" and these don't seem to work when selected.
I would like to use the code as the main menu for moving around CCS web applications. Is there a command to call CodeCharge Pages (.ccp) from the menu sample?
Thanks,
Wayne

I haven't worked with that example but I see all those links/URLs stored in the "menu" table in the Intranet database. Most of the links in that table have only the "#" value, while others have full URLs like "http://support.yessoftware.com". Thus I'm assuming that you can just enter into the database all the links that you need. You probably cannot point to .ccp pages, but you can point directly to the ASP or PHP pages, etc.

What would the command be to call a .ccp page such as "account.ccp" within a CCS asp page? Or an .asp page within the application?

I don't think that you can call a .ccp page, as this is rather an abstract page that doesn't exist on the server; it only contains page model (component properties) used in the project when working with CCS.
To call an .asp page you'd use the ASP response.redirect command, like response.redirect("some_page.asp")

Or actually using the Redirect variable would be better: http://docs.codecharge.com/studio/html/Components/Varia...P/Redirect.html
(I'd use response.redirect only when Redirect doesn't work for some reason, in some cases)

Peter,
When the Redirect variable has been changed in an event procedure, when does the redirection take place? Perhaps as soon as the event procedure closes or at some other specific point in page-flow?
Cheers,
Cass.

I didn't know the answer but I searched the code for "Redirect" and there it is:
'Go to destination page @1-6D35F4FD
If NOT ( Redirect = "" ) Then
UnloadPage
Response.Redirect Redirect
End If
'End Go to destination page
Right after the page code is executed and before the output is sent to the browser.

Peter,
It looks like the Javascript menus will call an internal or external "asp" file just fine but the Horizontal CCS version only goes through some processing but does not call any type of command - internal or external link.
You may want to have someone a CCS fix the code.
Thanks,
Wayne

That is OK and there is nothing to fix.
If a menu works that way then that's how it was designed.
Keep in mind that each menu demonstrates different type, style & functionality, thus if you need functionality from one menu but type or style from another (horizontal or vertical, CSS-based on JS-based) , then you can use each example to learn what you need to do.
CCS doesn't have built-in menu support and the examples are optional and provided only to help you create your own menus.

Peter,
Maybe I was not clear enough; the Horizontal CCS version does not work. It only displays the menu item but will not redirect to the command stored in the database.
Thanks,
Wayne

I understand, but I think that it is not supposed to...
Each example was meant to demonstrate some different features/possibilities, and this example may be demonstrating how to create a menu that passes various parameters to the current page (which it does).
I'm not familiar with that example but possibly you could check with the support if that was the intended behavior.

Well peterr, I think it was supposed to work, as at http://examples.codecharge.com/
you have 4 examples:
Horizontal JavaScript Menu <- working
Vertical JavaScript Menu <- working
Horizontal CSS Menu <- does not work
Vertical CSS Menu <- working
So of all this 4 it is only this Horizonal CSS that does not work at examples page.

Way to fix the horizonal CCS is follow:
{SubcategoryLink} property:
Change Href Type from Page to Database
then change Href Source to sub_menu_link
Same way with {CategoryLink} if it have active link

Also, make sure that you go in the Data Source-Build Query (you shoud have a cat and sub table in the menu with a left join from cat to sub. Expand both tables and check the *link, in both, then press ok.
Then, as Tengel was stating Href type should be database, then Href source (click on the ...) should be cat_menu_link. Dont mess with the Where clause, but actually select cat_menu_link from the drop-down. Do the same with subcategories. Generate the code and it should work.
However, there is a caveat in the code. If you snip out the <style> code from the example and then auto-generate the directory listing by the instructions, it will not work. You have to modify a certain piece of code (below).. In the Begin Category section, the <li> tag needs a class section, which should be class="submenu" and name="submenu".
Please review the code below and compare it to the example html. Generate after you have made the changes and it should work.
This took me a whole day to figure out.
My issue is that I have generated the Horizontal CSS menu on a page and tried to generate a grid on the same page. However, I cannot get the grid to read the CSS file. By default, it reads the horizontal bar style. So, my column names formatting is messed up. If someone could help me out with that, THAT WOULD BE AWESOME!!!!
<!-- BEGIN Directory main_menu -->
<div id="menu">
<ul id="menulist">
<table width="125%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" >
<tr>
<td valign="top" class="RockItDataTD">
<!-- BEGIN Category -->
<li><a class="submenu" href="{CategoryLink_Src}" name="submenu">{CategoryLink}</a><ul>
<!-- BEGIN Subcategory -->
<li><a class="submenu" name="submenu" href="{SubcategoryLink_Src}">{SubcategoryLink}</a> <!-- END Subcategory -->

Each menu comes with the list of supported Web browsers. Click "View more information about this example" to view the description.

You can look at this page.
http://www.bohemendart.com ( norwegian page )
You will see it works in IE and Mozilla/Firefox, but if you try in Opera 8.0 it will not work well.
