Thanks for this. I will have an attempt at using this and see how I go.
I eventually need to use this over around 20 pages so I was mainly looking for a way to automatically hilite the current tab based upon the value of the URL of the page (Looking for tab name in URL) Nakia Brewer | Technology & Solutions Manager | Equipment Management Solutions t: (02) 49645051 | m: 0458 713 547 | i: www.westrac.com.au ACN 009 342 572 -----Original Message----- From: use-livecode [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of chris heidecker Sent: Tuesday, 8 April 2014 10:29 PM To: How to use LiveCode Subject: Re: HTML & CSS Hi, I'm not sure what you're goal is, so I'll provide 2 options for inspiration. I didn't use the method you tried, moved the bg-color to the listitem and used a first-child/last-child for the corners. The first one, shows or hides a <div> on the same page depending on the currentTab The second one leaves out any javascript. If you've got just 3 pages, you can hard-code the currentTab. Not really tested or elelegant. regards, Chris ----- -- show the the corresponding div of the selected tab ----- <html> <head> <script language="javascript" type="text/javascript"> function showHide(shID) { if (document.getElementById(shID)) { document.getElementById('tab1-content').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('tab2-content').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('tab3-content').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById(shID + '-content').style.display = 'block'; document.getElementById('tab1').className = ''; document.getElementById('tab2').className = ''; document.getElementById('tab3').className = ''; document.getElementById(shID).className = 'currentTab' } } </script> <style type="text/css"> #nav a:link { display:block; width:200px; font:12px verdana,sans-serif; font-weight:bold; color:#FFFFFF; text-align:center; padding:4px; text-decoration:none; text-transform:uppercase; } ul#nav { list-style-type:none; margin:0; padding:0; overflow:hidden; } #nav li { float:left; background-color:#8EBA44; } #nav li:hover { background-color:#7A991A; } #nav li:first-child { border-top-left-radius: 4px 4px; border-bottom-left-radius: 4px 4px; } #nav li:last-child { border-top-right-radius: 4px 4px; border-bottom-right-radius: 4px 4px; } #nav li.currentTab { background-color:#7A991A; } </style> </head> <body onload="showHide('tab1')"> <ul id="nav"> <li id="tab1"><a href="#" onclick="showHide('tab1')">About</a></li> <li id="tab2"><a href="#" onclick="showHide('tab2')">Contact</a></li> <li id="tab3"><a href="#" onclick="showHide('tab3')">Terms</a></li> </ul> <ul> <li>another list</li> <li>without style</li> </ul> <div> <div id="tab1-content" class="tab"><p>layer 1</p></div> <div id="tab2-content" class="tab"><p>layer 2</p></div> <div id="tab3-content" class="tab"><p>layer 3</p></div> </div> </body> </html> ----- -- add a class currentTab to the currently showing page ----- <html> <head> <style type= "text/css"> -- the same styles as above </style> </head> <body> <ul id="nav"> <li class="currentTab"><a href="#">About</a></li> <li><a href="#">Contact</a></li> <li><a href="#">Terms</a></li> </ul> <ul> <li><a href="#">test list</a></li> <li><a href="#">without style</a></li> </ul> </body> </html> Op 5 apr. 2014, om 08:47 heeft Nakia Brewer <[email protected]> het volgende geschreven: > I am trying to replicate the method here > > http://css-tricks.com/snippets/jquery/add-active-navigation-class-base > d-on-url/ > > > > Nakia Brewer | Technology & Solutions Manager | Equipment Management > Solutions > t: (02) 49645051 | m: 0458 713 547 | i: www.westrac.com.au > > > ACN 009 342 572 > > > -----Original Message----- > From: use-livecode [mailto:[email protected]] On > Behalf Of Nakia Brewer > Sent: Saturday, 5 April 2014 5:33 PM > To: How to use LiveCode > Subject: RE: HTML & CSS > > So here is what I am trying to do.. > Notes : I know next to nothing about HTML and CSS > The form service where I am trying to embed this HTML code only allows > me to embed the content as HTML.
