Navigation

type=nav

This tag sets the position of the top level navigation. The tag is optional, so if you want to do you own thing with navigation just omit this tag. No ID is required.

type=subnav

This tag sets the position of the second level navigation. This tag is optional. No ID is required.

Note: the subnav tag will only render if a nav tag exists. If a main menu is not required put this code in the page template:

<!--<cms type=nav>-->

type=path

This tag sets the position of the path to the current page.

e.g. Home » Products » Widgets

Navigation template tags

The navigation template designer allows you to very easily create a section of HTML to allow users to navigate around the site. The navigation templates can range from a very simple "HOME | CONTACT | ABOUT" structure to elaborate creations including graphics, onclick and mouseover effects.

<pagename>

This is the link text as entered by the user in the page properties.

<pagelink>

When the site is published, this will render as the filename for the page e.g. "contact.htm"

<hover>

This is the "hover text" as entered by the user in the page properties. It may be used as an element title so that the text will pop up when the mouse is over the element.
