Hey all,

I know this is not the correct forum to ask, but I hope here to find a answer.

I going to renew my site and I want to make several tables in my site.
I want to have one page with all the info "home , News, Portfolio, etc,..."
But when I click on Portfolio for example I will be loaded in the same window
or page where previously home or news was standing... without reloading
the menu's, header, etc,...

Hope you understand me asking....

A image below shows more (I hope) of what I mean...

Thanks,

Greetz,
Novak

the oldschool way of doing this is with framesets (pretty standard HTML)... newschool, ajax .js scripting. At what level do you wanna code ?

Novak · 06-24-2008, 09:26 PM

Well, I don't wanna use Frames Or Iframes... Ajax?? What the hell is that again..

Is that PhP??? Or Javascript.... ???
Oh boy the times are going to fast for me... Work, Work, And not have the time to learn
something new..

Well Tell me more about Ajax .js please I have 3 days vacation

... So I think I have some time...

Either use old-school PHP/Coldfusion/JSP/whatever and create the navigation with re-usable header() and footer() methods or use Javascript/AJAX and replace the innerHTML of a <div> tag (downside: no navigation for people who have deactivated JS).

PS: You´ve used it lots of times without even realizing ( Ajax (programming - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia) ).

You could dig out a function that does a document.whatever reference using onmouseup(), though you will need to look into how to avoid precaching if you want lots of images to appear in the changing area. Something like but with <A> or <img> instead of a button. You could change it to an image or use include files to make updates easier

<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
function ChangeText()
{
document.getElementById("p1").innerHTML="New text!";
}
</script>
</head>

<body>
<p id="p1">Hello world!</p>
<input type="button" onclick="ChangeText()"
value="Click me to change text above">
</body>
</html>

(code from HTML DOM Using the DOM)

Flash would require some scripting to be written in addition to creating the visual look, so it wouldn't be easier and would probably take a lot more time. Also, not everyone uses Flash or a Flash capable browser, so you would be limiting your audience unless you created a non-Flash version of the site, effectively doubling the work

I hate flash sites. (Just my personal feelings, no offense intended!) Novak, look around dynamic drive. (The script that links to is probably a good place to start, it could be used as a nav system easy enough.)
