Hello, I have created a 'tabbed menu' component that needs to know which page is currently requested in order to display the corresponding tab as 'selected'.
The way I am dealing with this is as follows: - Every page managed by a tab defines an attribute as per <%attr> menuitem => 'mypageid' </%attr> - In the autohandler, I call: <& menu.mhtml, menuitem => $m->base_comp->attr( 'menuitem' ) &> - And in menu.mhtml, the code exploits the value of the menuitem attribute to highlight the corresponding tab This works as I expect, but I find it a little cumbersome to manage, as I need to maintain the consistency between the menu.mhtml and the attr defined in each of the pages, let alone the fact that there needs to be a menuitem attribute in each page. Is there a better recipe for dealing with this situation? Thanks in advance for your insights. -Olivier ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Mason-users mailing list Mason-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/mason-users
