Background id based

Each of the three different states of a navigation (normal, hover, active) get its own background image or a color assigned.

Here shown by a simple example of a single-line navigation using the two navigations NAV_HORIZ_DD:ID,Level depth or NAV_LIST_UL (CSS).

Horizontal

HTML:

Navi Tag:

<div id="pmenu">{NAV_HORIZ_DD:0,1}</div>
 
or
 
<div id="pmenu">{NAV_LIST_UL:,0,1,active,act_path,cat}</div>


CSS:

Example: Background images in template/img/custom/nav/*

nav[Category-ID].png

State normal:      nav[cat-ID].png
State active:  nav_act[cat-ID].png
State hover:   nav_hov[cat-ID].png

Vertical

Adoption: A combination of horizontal (see above) and vertical navigation.

Example how individual areas under a certain category can be colored with CSS.

Based on the above example the Category06 was added.

The simplest is to generate a separate CSS file.


The call of vertical navigation is made in the Template by using ther “Level Lift”:

[PHP]
if(isset($GLOBALS['LEVEL_ID'][1])) {
$level_id = $GLOBALS['LEVEL_ID'][1];
echo '<div class="nlu_navi1_id">'.LF;
echo '{NAV_LIST_UL:,'.$level_id.',,act_path,active,catv}';
echo '</div>';
}
[/PHP]


Generated source:

<div class="nlu_navi1_id">
 
  <ul id="catv_36" class="act_path">
    <li id="li_catv_37" class="sub_ul act_path sub_first"><a href="category06_01.phtml" title="Category06_01">Category06_01</a>
      <ul id="catv_37" class="act_path">
        <li id="li_catv_40" class="sub_no act_path active sub_first"><a href="category06_01_01.phtml" title="Category06_01_01">Category06_01_01</a></li>

        <li id="li_catv_42" class="sub_no"><a href="category06_01_03.phtml" title="Category06_01_03">Category06_01_03</a></li>
     </ul>
    </li>
    <li id="li_catv_38" class="sub_ul"><a href="category_06_02.phtml" title="Category06_02">Category06_02</a>
      <ul id="catv_38">
        <li id="li_catv_43" class="sub_no sub_first"><a href="category06_02_01.phtml" title="Category06_02_01">Category06_02_01</a></li>
        <li id="li_catv_44" class="sub_no"><a href="category06_02_02.phtml" title="Category06_02_02">Category06_02_02</a></li>
        <li id="li_catv_45" class="sub_no"><a href="category06_02_03.phtml" title="Category06_02_03">Category06_02_03</a></li>
      </ul>

    <li id="li_catv_39" class="sub_no"><a href="cat05_06_03.phtml" title="Category06_03">Category06_03</a></li>
  </ul>
 
</div>


CSS:

Example: Background image in img/article/*

Normal state:  navi1_norm.gif
Active state:   navi1_act.gif
Sub level available:   navi1_sub_true.gif
Hover state:   navi1_hov.gif

CSS from file NAV_LIST_UL (CSS).

The difference is identified here as an example of colors (see picture above).

Vertikal

Adoption: A combination of horizontal (see above) and vertical navigation.

Example how the area under a category can be colored with CSS.


The call of vertical navigation is made in the Template by using ther “Level Lift”:

[PHP]
if(isset($GLOBALS['LEVEL_ID'][1])) {
$level_id = $GLOBALS['LEVEL_ID'][1];
echo '<div class="nlu_navi1_id">'.LF;
echo '{NAV_LIST_UL:,'.$level_id.',,act_path,active,catv}';
echo '</div>';
}
[/PHP]


Generated source:

Below Category06, Category06_01_03 is active:

<div class="nlu_navi1_id">
 
<ul id="catv_36" class="act_path">
    <li id="li_catv_37" class="sub_ul act_path sub_first"><a href="category06_01.phtml" title="Category06_01">Category06_01</a>
