No site yet - just hosting it on my client's sandbox machine. Here
are the pertinent parts - I can always email them to you also.
For my index.php - just sets up the navivgation and content div:
[code]
<? include ("includes/nav.inc");?>
<? include ("includes/companyx.inc");?>
.......
<body>
<div id="wrapper">
<div id="content">
</div>
</div>
</body>
<? include ("includes/footer.inc") ?>
</html>
[/code]
Now my "nav.inc" file which sets up the horizontal navbar according to
the superfish instructions:
[code]
<script type="text/javascript" src="js/superfish.js"></script>
<div id="header"><h1>Company X</h1>
<div id="navigation">
<ul id="nav">
<li id="first"><a href="index.php">Home</a></li>
<li>Search
<ul>
<li><a id="by-lastname" href="#">Last Name</a></li>
<li><a id="by-firstname" href="#">First Name</a></li>
<li><a id="by-division" href="#">Company</a></li>
<li><a id="by-job" href="#">Job</a></li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
.....
</div>
[/code]
So now I have my index file with navigation. Let's say a user selects
Search-Last Name. This is my "companyx.js" script:
[code]
$('#home').livequery('click', function() {
$('#content').load('index.php');
$("#content").show();
return false;
});
$('#by-lastname').livequery('click', function() {
$('#content').load('by-lastname.html');
$("#content").show();
return false;
});
.....
[/code]
And this is my "by-lastname.html", which appears in the content div:
[code]
<div id=byLastName>
<h4>Search by Last Name</h4>
<form name="searchlast" action="searchlast.php" >
<input type="text" name="lastname" id="lastname" />
<input type="submit" value="Search">
</form>
</div>
[/code]
So the user types in a last name and presses Search. searchlast.php
goes to a mysql db and loads the results in the content div:
[code]
<?php
include ("includes/nav.inc");
include ("includes/header-table.inc");
include ("connection.php");
?>
<script language="javascript">
$(document).ready(function() {
$("#datatable")
.tablesorter({widthFixed: true, widgets: ['zebra']})
.tablesorterPager({container: $("#pager")});
});
</script>
</head>
<body>
<?php
@mysql_connect($host, $user, $password) or die("Error - Can't connect
to server");
@mysql_select_db($database) or die("Error - Can't connect to db");
$query = "SELECT......";
include ("table.php");
[/code]
So the data is now displayed via table.php
[code]
<?
# now display data itself
echo("<tbody>");
while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($query))
{
echo("<tr>\n<td>");
echo($row["lastname"]);
....
}
[/code]
This all works well. It just doesn't work after the user has view
some results of some sort, then clicks on another navigation option.
(Like Search-FirstName). The user must click "Home" first, then
Search-FirstName, which is a pain. I would like the user to be able
to view results, and click immediately on another navigation pane.
Does this make sense? Thanks for anyhelp you can give me - I've been
struggling with this for a while and it seems like it should be pretty
simple!
