Now my problem is i need to copy or repeat the html code every page of my site to make the menu bar available. I do not ask for the exact code coz i know it is not allowed here, what i want is a suggestion or idea of how i can do it for me not to repeat the html code. One of my idea is to call that like the (behavior) function but i do not know what language to use. Thank you in advance.

Hi

You can link to your stylesheet on each page, in stead of copy it over to each page. That requires only one line of code on each page. As for the html part, if you have a database installed and for instance running on php, you can include the html on each page with one line of php code.

Thank you for yor quick reply.
yes i link my style sheet, given this code

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="menuBar/pro_dropdown_2.css" />
<script src="menuBar/stuHover.js" type="text/javascript">

why do i need to have a database, please elaborate and what php tag i suppose to use?

Member Avatar for Kraai

You do not need a database to link your stylesheet. You van only have this code in the <head> part of your page:

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="path/to/pro_dropdown_2.css">

This means, you have to copy the stylesheet into something like notepad, and save it as pro_dropdown_2.css, then upload to your server, and only use above code in head section of each page. NOTE to put correct path to stylesheet in above code.

About database:

What I was saying, is that a easy way to get the html on each page, using only one line of code, would be if you can use php with a database, by using the include function, for stuff you want to include on some pages without copy the full html into that page. You will then call something from the mysql database with only one string. That will look something like this:

<?php include("menubar.php"); ?>
Member Avatar for Kraai

Sorry, I see on your code you posted you already have the code for including your stylesheet. Use that then in the head section of your pages, and it should be fine.

Member Avatar for coud_ren_26

can i include html file?

Member Avatar for Kraai

I think, without the database option, the best solution to include the same html in many pages without copy them in, will be by using javascript.

HERE is a good tut on how to do that.

Let us know how you're doing!

Member Avatar for MJ Pieterse

why don't you just create a seperate page with all of that in and call it with an include function?

<!--#include virtual="nav.html"-->

on your include page you include your javascript and styles etc..
