Re: [Phpcollegeex-devel] what to change

[David D. <dav...@ya...>]

I built the tabs in the nav bar out of lists and css.  All you have to 
do is add a new item to the list and it becomes a tab (or a sub-menu 
item, if you add it to the second list)
To add new tabs (and a whole new section) you edit the first list in the 
i_nav.php file in each folder.  For example:

<ul id="navtab">
    <li class="navtabon">Home</li>
    <li class="navtaboff"><a href="<? echo $home ?>books/">Textbook 
Exchange</a></li>
    <li class="navtaboff"><a href="<? echo $home ?>house/">Housing 
Finder</a></li>
</ul>

Will become:

<ul id="navtab">
    <li class="navtabon">Home</li>
    <li class="navtaboff"><a href="<? echo $home ?>books/">Textbook 
Exchange</a></li>
    <li class="navtaboff"><a href="<? echo $home ?>house/">Housing 
Finder</a></li>
    <li class="navtaboff"><a href="<? echo $home ?>new/">New 
Section</a></li>
</ul>

Each folder has it's own i_nav.php file so you must add the new list 
item in each one.
Then you create a folder for the new section.  In the i_nav.php file for 
this new folder you will want to change the "navtaboff" for the new 
sections listing to "navtabon".  You also use the second list in the 
i_nav.php file to link to the sub-pages.  For example, look at the 
second list in the books/ sections i_nav.php.

<ul id="navlist">
    <li><a href="search.php" title="Search for books">Find Books</a></li>
    <li><a href="index.php?page=newlisting" title="Post books for 
sale">Post Books</a></li>
    <li><a href="index.php?page=mybooks" title="Remove or update your 
listings">My Books</a></li>
</ul>

I hope it isn't too confusing.  I did this so that new sections can 
easily be added and adjusted.
