Sectionsless tab menu
Hi good forum =)
Seems there is yet one answer I can not find around here. Here’s my problem:
I have a box with a tab-menu. This box should always show regardless of section. Inside the box there’s three menu items and a content area. The whole box should be deletable, meaning if there’s no content, the box should not appear empty – it should not exist.
The box is a form “articleBox” and takes care of itself, the whole box is there, not only content formatting. Have a look
My template call looks like this:
<txp:article_custom form="articleBox" limit="1" sort="Posted desc" />
My form has some html and gived the menu items a class “active” or “inactive” depending on article category name.
Example: <txp:if_article_category name="News">class="active"<txp:else />class="inactive"</txp:if_article_category>>
Now, the problem is I do not know what link to put for the content to change inside the box, without changing the section of the site, I guess it can not be done with site-url. I simply need the article to adjust to what menu item is currently active.
I bet there is a simple solution to this, im just too blind to see it.

Re: Sectionsless tab menu
See also jQuery Plugin UI. It has a Tabs widget. It is well documented and has lots of options. There is also a tutorial here.
