CSS navigation menus & useability by Mark BergerPublished on 11/15/2006 11:22:24 PM |

Looking to implement a CSS website?
Even if you're not, and you're just looking for a nice design with a good navigation layout - one of our CSS templates is the way to go. Common left navs include roll over ability, and quick and easy ways to add/edit links.
If you're a bit more advanced you can even use PHP/ASP include tags. Basically this means you take the left navigation and put it into a seperate document - then you can add an include tag on all your pages linking to the document. Why is this useful, you might ask? Because you only have to change one document to update the left nav.
Before webmasters started using include tags, the old method was to edit the menu on every page. So every time you wanted to add a page to the site's layout, you would have to edit the site nav on every single page. Frusterating? Just a little.
That method has been eliminated. An include tag would look like or . With the page.txt being the file you're including. These are SSI/ASP includes. A PHP include tag looks like require_once('menu.php'); .
