[Cooperweb-devel] How to add a main page item to menu bar:

[Gerard T. <gto...@gm...>]

This describes how you can add a main page item to the menu bar. This is for
example a curriculum page, the details of the portal page, client progress
tracking form, etc...

1. Open COOPERWeb class file
2. Find method "loadSinks()"
3. Add your new "Sink" extended class file to this list.
4. Add a code block like this to your Composite:

    public static SinkInfo init() {
        return new SinkInfo("Curriculum",
                "The <code>Curriculum</code> class shows the curriculum" ) {
            public Sink createInstance() {
                return new Curriculum();
            }
        };
    }

5. modify class declaration like: public class Curriculum extends Sink
6. make constructor private:     private Curriculum() {
7. Done.

History (back button) is now done automatically.
