Writing Menus


Simple Menu

A simple main menu tag would be:

<param name="menuMain" value="{Home,home.html}{Contact,contact.html,right}">

This would display the options 'Home' and 'Contact'. Clicking on 'Home' would take the top frame to home.html. Clicking on 'Contact' would take the frame called 'right' to contact.html.

Menus are lists of options. Options are in the form {Title,HREF,frame} or {Title,HREF}

Using sub-menus

All menu names must start 'menu'. To make an option point to a submenu, simply type in the menu name as the HREF. The menu 'menuMain' is always displayed first.

Eg. Suppose we have two menus - one 'menuMain' and one 'menuContact'.

<param name="menuMain" value="{Home,home.html}{Contact,menuContact}">

<param name="menuContact" value="{E-mail,mailto:ed.smith@mail.com}{Back,menuMain}">

Here, clicking on Contact in the main menu would take you to the submenu 'menuContact'. Likewise clicking 'Back' in the submenu will take you back to the main menu. You can use as many submenus as you wish and name them anything you wish provided they start 'menu'.
