Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] ako_nav

Interesting… I didn’t think that messy url’s would have an effect on it. I’ll look into this, and try to get back to you asap.

Thanks for taking the time to look…

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] ako_nav

Again, I simply adore this plugin its works like a dream! It really does save me a lot of time and energy!

But, any chance that your plugin will work with messy urls?

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] ako_nav

creativesplash, for my sanity, could you copy the code in here that you’re using to call the plugin?
Thanks…

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] ako_nav

This is how I’m using it…

<code><txp:ako_nav name=“home,showcase,journal,about us,credits,locker” url=”/,/?s=showcase,/?s=journal,/?s=about,/?s=credits,/?s=locker” /></code>

I’m able to navigate between pages (as far as functionality is concerned the links work). The only prob. i’m facing is with the attribute <code>active=“class”</code>. The menu is not highlited when on a different section other than the home page. (it does get highlighted in the home page).

I’m using Txp 4.01.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] ako_nav

Feature requests: switch to turn off div, ul, li and option to have br as a wrap tag. So you’re just left with a plain link.

Thanks, Lee

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] ako_nav

Lee, I’ll see what I can do. And creativesplash, I’m working on figuring out why the messy url’s don’t want to work.

I will have you know that a divon attribute is already in the next release (and currently being used on a beta site), and I can work the wraptag attribute in the next release. Oh, and the help file formatting is fixed in the next version too (oops, kind of messed that one up in the last version…)

Give me a a bit of time, and I’ll have the next release out — this seems like it’s going to be a rather hellish week here at school.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] ako_nav

Lee, I was contemplating using br as a wraptag earlier, and the following thought occured to me:
If br is being used as a wraptag, then where does the <code>class=“active”</code> get added? To an optional spanwrap (wraping the text in <code>span</code>‘s), or does it get added at all? What are you looking for with the <code>wraptag=“br”</code>? How do you envision it?

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] ako_nav

Howdy all.

Just wanted to let you all know that I’ve released v0.9 of ako_nav, dubbed the “super-mega-cool instead-of-comp-sci-paper release.”
This one has a whole slew of new attributes added to it. The quick rundown: aids, aclass, liids, liclass, divon, spanwrap, and spanclass. (Can you figure out what they all do?) If you want more info, check out the help file or the info link, below.

More info

Download ako_nav v0.9

Thanks for the continued support, and comments / suggestions / monies are, as always, more than welcome.

Further notes not so directly related to this release:
Lee, I’m still wondering at exactly what you meant with your previous post (see my previos post right above for a further explanation).
creativesplash, I’m still working on the messy url situation. Hopefully that will be resolved soon…

Now if you all will excuse me, I’ve got a comp sci paper to deal with… (If you have no idea what I’m talking about, you didn’t read the entire post. That’s just a pitty now, isn’t it?)

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] ako_nav

Very useful plugin. However, the class=“active” is not generated. I am using it with TP 4.0.1

<code>
<txp:ako_nav divid=“navcontainer” classtag=“0” headon=“0” name=“Home,About,Contact” url=”/,/about,/contact” />
</code>

This is what it generates:

<code>
<div id=“navcontainer”>
<ul>
<li><a href=“http://myhost/textpattern/” accesskey=“1”>Home</a></li>
<li><a href=“http://myhost/textpattern/about” accesskey=“2”>About</a></li>
<li><a href=“http://myhost/textpattern/contact” accesskey=“3”>Contact</a></li>
</ul>
</div>
</code>

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] ako_nav

Ok, for my sanity, would you mind loading up a debuging version of my plugin and then emailing me (user: akokskis; domain: gmail.com; figure it out from there (I hate spam)) the output?

A warning about the debug version: it will spit out a lot of gibberish code that will probably not mean a whole lot. I only need the stuff that it spits out, so as soon as you run it once, you can go back to the clean version that won’t spit out any gibberish.

Thanks for your help.

Edit: link removed as no longer needed.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] ako_nav

I just sent you the debug info using the forum e-mail. Thanks for looking at it. I see from the thread that other people also had problems with the active link.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] ako_nav

This v0.9.1 release is the fix for the previous release, in which the <code>class=“active”</code> was not added unless the aclass attribute was set to something. This shall be dubbed the “ok so the last one wasn’t so super-mega-cool but this one is” release.

More info

Download ako_nav v0.9.1

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] ako_nav

I just tested it; the class “active” is now added, as expected, to the a link when classtag=“0” i used.
Many thanks for the fix.
