How hard would this be? I found this tutorial but it reads like greek to me: http://www.seoconsultants.com/css/menus/tutorial/
-
an even more elegant solution. thanks Alex!
-
Not quite but following your logic I got it.
what i needed was
<?php echo "/img/" . $pic[rand(0,1)]; ?>
<?php echo "/img/" . $pic[rand(0,2)]; ?>
gave me each picture sometimes and once in a while a blank. I figure 0,2 must be an array of 3 with values of 0, 1, 2...
Thanks!

halfway there. This time it appears to work half the time.
Half the time it returns:
<div id="main-image"><img src="/img/" height="240px" width="240px" alt="" /></div>
and the other half
<div id="main-image"><img src="/img/shot2.jpg" height="240px" width="240px" alt="" /></div>
It seems like whenever it selects shot1.jpg from the random function it returns nothing....
-
I guess I screwed something up.
Can I call it like this or no?
Do i have to cram that whole statement together as one into the spot where I want the image or did I just put a quote in the wrong place or something?
<?php $pic = array( "shot1.jpg", "shot2.jpg", ); ?> </div> <div id="right-column"> <div id="main-image"><img src="<?php echo "/img/'.$pic[rand(1,2)].'" ?>" height="240px" width="240px" alt="" /></div> <div class="sidebar"> <ul id="menu">
My pics are stored in a subdir called img/ from the root.
mydomain.com/img/ for example.
Thanks.
-
Awesome! Thanks again!
-
Could I code something in php that would take a static image on my website and randomly rotate (whenever someone loads the page) among 3 or 4 or 5 different selections of image all of the same format, size, dimension, etc?
If so how could I do that.
Thanks.
-
Great success! you guys are batting 1,000 today!
-
works beautifully. Thanks so much!!!
-
Great, thanks for your help. Now that the formating of the site is back to normal it's not so urgent but I would like to fix it if I can.
-
My index.php is:
<?php include "menu.inc.php"; function menu($_menu){ $str = ''; foreach($_menu as $url => $name){ $sel = ($_GET['page'] == $url ) ? ' id="selected" ' : ''; $str .= "<li ". $sel ."><a class='five' href=" . $url . " >" . $name . "</a></li>"; } echo $str; } $page = ( isset($_GET['pg']) ? $_GET['pg'] : ((isset($_GET['page']))? $_GET['page']:'home')); $file = basename($page).'.php'; $html_path = "php/"; if (file_exists($html_path.$file)) include $html_path.$file; ?>ANd my first guess was wildly wrong - doing that creates a nice blank white page for *everything*!
-
This sounds good but where to put it?
if (condition == failure) { header(); } else { display }Taking a stab... can I just do:
if (file_exists($html_path.$file)) { include $html_path.$file; } else { include $html_path.404; }(Note: I created a file 404.php for this exercise)
Where do I place this code? Just in index.php?
-
Again I'm not seeing any difference in the way the site behaves when I use that line instead of the one that was there.
I am also not finding the term 'selected' anywhere in the source.
-
Well, the header is the way to go. How you decide to test the condition I'm not sure.
For ex.
if (condition == failure) { header(); } else { display }Hope that helps
It does. Anybody know how to test?
-
?page=[good name] loads .\php\[good name].php
I am not real picky about the exact mechanics of how to do this or what is displayed so long as it's SOMETHING. I just felt like it should be something more than a totally blank white page incase somebody links in with a malformed link.
Automatic redirection to the root home page would be fine. Redirection to my 404 page would be fine too, really anything besides just a plain blank page.
If this is a huge deal or requires my sql implementation to do it I'll definitely put this on the back burner but I thought there might be a quick fix.
-
I assume, that on your application you check if $_GET['page'] variable is something meaningful (e.g. there's some content related to it in database), or it's just garbage. If it's garbage, use header() to redirect.
Example with MySQL:
<?php $page = mysql_real_escape_string($_GET['page']); //make sure nothing harmful get's injected into query $sql = "SELECT ... FROM pages WHERE page = '$page'"; $result = mysql_query($sql); if(mysql_num_rows($result) == 0) { //check if any rows got returned //redirect to 404 } else { //display data }I don't have my sql and there is no implementation for checking or anything in place. That's what I'm trying to do now. I was trying to prevent people that send a bad request (for example if the site changes and there are latent search engine links) from simply getting a completely blank white page.
Is there an easy way to do this?
@DevilsAdvocate - I read that but it doesn't really make clear to me what I have to put where to accomplish what I'm trying to do.
-
TYPO that won't work.... I mean change it to this:
$str .= "<li ". $sel ."><a class='five' href=" . $url . " >" . $name . "</a>\n";
This has no discernible change in behavior that I can see
-
The mouseover highlight already works just fine (and always did). The highlight for the current page used to work until I made some changes given here today to allow easier linking to external sites on the menu. I am trying to get it back to the point where the button for the page you are currently viewing would be highlighted. ANy idea how to do that?
I tried swaping the line of code you recommended but it resulted in the page not loading at all. It would just be completley blank when I visited the home page.
-
what styles are you using?
Below is my style.css - would that answer your question?

I read that and I see that you can use this function for this but where exactly would put what exact code to redirect to .\php\not_found.php for example?
I am not really all that experienced with this, sorry.
-
http://mysite.com/[garbage]
http://mysite.com/[garbage].html
http://mysite.com/[garbage]/[garbage]
All redirect to my 404 page no problem. I did this with an .htaccess redirect.
However, requests like http://mysite.com/index.php?page=[garbage] produces a completely blank page. Is there anyway i can redirect to something when the page doesn't exist?
-
My website used to highlight the current link in a dark color (similar to the mouseover or maybe even the same) but when I made some updates to allow external links more easily and to correct a problem with global variables someone here recommended I change the highlighting stopped working. Anyone know how I can turn it back on?
Menu list code:
<? $_menu = array('index.php?page=home' => 'Philosophy & Focus', 'index.php?page=biography' => 'Biography', 'index.php?page=consultations' => 'Consultations', 'index.php?page=classes' => 'Classes', 'index.php?page=client_comments' => 'Client Comments', 'index.php?page=calendar' => 'Calendar', 'http://shop.healthbasics.net/collections/health-basics' => 'Products', 'http://www.healthbasics.net/blog/' => 'Blog', 'index.php?page=recommended_reading' => 'Recommended Reading', 'index.php?page=recommended_viewing' => 'Recommended Viewing', 'index.php?page=links_resources' => 'Links & Resources', );And here is how it gets called from index.php:
include "menu.inc.php"; function menu($_menu){ $str = ''; foreach($_menu as $url => $name){ $sel = ($_GET['page'] == $url ) ? ' id="selected" ' : ''; $str .= "<li ". $sel ."><a href=" . $url . " >" . $name . "</a>\n"; } echo $str; }Thanks.

Wow you guys are great. Thanks so much. It works like a charm now
add hover over drop down menus to two of my links?
in CSS Help
Posted
I just have two places on my page where I want a drop down of a two sub options on mouseover but I don't know anything about css. I was thinking that maybe my situation is much less complex than the tutorial and I could do it with just a couple of lines or maybe it could be done with php some how...
