what's the difference
Hello,
I have two site’s : http://www.tamarawobben.nl and http://test.tamarawobben.nl
On the test site the menu works good and on the offical site the menu works not good.
Both site’s have the same page template and the same forms.
Who can help me figure out why the menu on http://www.tamarawobben.nl does not work good.
Regards,
Roelof

Re: what's the difference
Perhaps both sites don’t have the same articles.
PS. I’ve seen you open quite a few topics lately. All about the same menu. Would you mind keeping it all in one topic? That also makes it easier for people to help you, because most of the template stuff is already posted in those other topics.

Re: what's the difference
HTML Tidy Firefox extension reports that one page have 10 errors and the other one have 7 errors, so there is definitely something different in your templates/forms, because the HTML output is different.
And, btw, some of those errors (bad HTML) are related to the code of the menu.
For example:
<li>
<a href="http://www.tamarawobben.nl/index.php#nogo">
jaar1
<!--[if IE 7]><!--></a><!--<![endif]-->
<!--[if lte IE 6]><table><tr><td><![endif]-->
<ul>That code really doesn’t make any sense at all, at least for me…
So, first step, validate your code.
This kind of post belong to the “Presentation” category, or as ruud said, to the other threads related to the menu you already opened.

Re: what's the difference
oke,
I have made my test page valide according to the validator on www.w3c.org.
I have still one problem.
When i use the menu and on the place where the articles must be placed i have this :
<txp:if_section name=”“>
<txp:article_custom section=“voorpagina” form=“default” />
</txp:if_section>
<txp:if_section name=“article”>
<txp:article limit=“1” form=“dagboek” sort=“Posted asc” />
<txp:ob1_pagination firsttext=“Eerste” previoustext=“Vorige” nexttext=“Volgende” lasttext=“Laatste” liclass=“menu2” />
</txp:if_section>
<txp:if_section name=“gastenboek”>
<txp:sdr_guestbook section=“gastenboek” pagelimit=“6” form=“default” commentform=“guestbook_comments_form” articletitle=“Gastenboek” />
</txp:if_section>
<txp:if_section name=“contact”>
<txp:zem_contact to=“postmaster@tamarawobben.nl” />
</txp:if_section>
<txp:if_section name=”,article”>
<txp:else />
<txp:article /><!— this is for other sections than the front page or ‘article’ —>
</txp:if_section>
Now i get a error message that txp can’t find the article tag.
But it’s there.
Who can help me with this ?

Re: what's the difference
Its hard to figure out what is your error because I don’t really know what you want to happen. I can tell you that this is calling a category:
http://test.tamarawobben.nl/?c=gastenboekNot a section. That may be your error.
Edit: Should note that the above was taken from your menu here:

<txp:else />
<txp:article /><!-- this is for other sections than the front page or 'article' -->
</txp:if_section>The notice is saying:
De modelpagina default heeft nog geen txp:article tag
1. That’s right, you only have <txp:article_custom /> on the front page (default template). And because what you call sections are in reality categories, and category lists always use the default page template (unless told otherwise), you get this notice also on category pages ‘gastenboek’, ‘jaar1’ etcetera.
2. Don’t worry, it’s only a notice, you do don’t have to have an article tag on your page. Set Production status to ‘live’ and the notice will go away :)
If this is the way you want it to work, you only have to change the if_section parts to if_category. Edit: wait, better is to change your menu links to /?s=article&c=zwangerschap&month=2005-02 etcetera.

Re: what's the difference
Els,
Sorry, but i need your help one more time.
Everything works good now but in the menu there are 3 sublevels instead of 12.
Can you help me figure out why.
