menu problem

hello,

I have this form :

<txp:if_different>
<txp:category1 /><br />
</txp:if_different>
<txp:if_different>
<a rel=“nofollow” href=”<txp:site_url />?c=<txp:category1 />&amp;month=<txp:posted format=”%Y-%m” />”><txp:posted format="%B" /></a>
</txp:if_different>

And in my page looks like this :

<txp:article_custom sort="Posted ASC" listform="myform" />

But my problem is that i have a guestbook without the months.

Now it looks like this :

Zwangerschap 
----  maart 
---  april 
Gastenboek 
---  september.

But i must look like this :

Zwangerschap 
----  maart 
---  april 
Gastenboek.

I tried to make a category guestbook but i wont work.
How can i make my form only work with selected categories.

Re: menu problem

Hi Roelof,

You can do this on the page template:

<txp:article_custom category="zwangerschap,evt-andere-categorie(en)" sort="Posted asc" listform="myform" />
<txp:article_custom category="gastenboek,evt-andere-categorie(en)" sort="Posted asc" listform="myotherform" />

and form ‘myotherform’ could be

<a href="<txp:site_url />?c=<txp:category1 />"><txp:category1 title="1" /></a><br />

(If ‘gastenboek’ is a section and not a category, you can do the same using section. The category and section attributes in article_custom can take comma separated lists since 4.0.6.)

</LI>
  <LI><A href="http://www.cssplay.co.uk/menus/flyout2.html#nogo">Item 6</A> 
</LI></UL></DIV></DIV><!-- end of info -->

I now have a form like this :

<txp:if_different>
<li>
<A href="http://www.tamarawobben.nl/index.php#nogo">
<txp:category1 /></a>
</li>
<ul>
</txp:if_different>
<txp:if_different>
<li>
<a rel=“nofollow” href=”<txp:site_url />?c=<txp:category1  />&amp;month=<txp:posted format=”%Y-%m” />”><txp:posted format="%B" /></a>
</li>
</ul>
</txp:if_different>

But now everything is a level 1.

What do i have to do to make the menu like above.

Re: menu problem

Like I said before a couple of times ;) creating nested lists with if_different is not possible without some ugly workaround. It might be easier to handcode your categories (first level), and use an article form for the sublevels.
