    Navigation help

    I need to do this navigation, and i'm messing around with the XSLT, can someone help me out? :)

     

    This is the structure:
    
    Website
    - level1 navi
    -- level2 navi
    --- level3 navi
    --- level3 navi

     

     

            <ul class="undermenu"> 
    
                <li><a href="#">Level2</a>             
    
                    <ul> 
    
                        <li><a href="#" class="aktiv">level3</a></li>                     
    
                        <li><a href="#">Level3</a></li>
    
                    </ul>
    
                </li> 
    
            </ul>

    Here's the XSLT I have untill now, almost does the trick.. except it doesnt show the last level of navigation :(

    Looks like you are using the $level2 variable in both of your for-each loops.
    If you use variable $level3 in the 'inner' for-each loop i think it should work.

    Try changing 'inner' for-each loop to this:

    <xsl:for-each select="$currentPage/child::* [@isDoc and @level=$level3]/* [@isDoc and string(umbracoNaviHide) != '1']">

    Hi Daniel

    Perhaps you can benefit from using the "sitemap" snippet, as it does what you're trying to achieve recursively. There's no need for the $level variables.

    In the sample you can specify the max level...think that is the way to go for you.

    Hi Daniel (+others)

    Since you all know my position on these matters, I would recommend trying this approach instead - I'm seeing way too much duplication already :-)

    >
    
        <xsl:output method="xml" indent="yes" omit-xml-declaration="yes" />
    
        <xsl:param name="currentPage" />
        <xsl:variable name="siteRoot" select="$currentPage/ancestor-or-self::*[@level = 1]" />
    
        <xsl:template match="/">
            <ul class="undermenu">
                <!-- Start with children of the site root -->
                <xsl:apply-templates select="$siteRoot/*[@isDoc]" />
            </ul>
        </xsl:template>

                    <xsl:value-of select="@nodeName" />
                </a>
                <!-- Make sure there is at least one visible page below, otherwise we get an empty <ul/> -->
                <!-- If you need to stop at some level, do that here, like this: -->

                    </ul>
                </xsl:if>
            </li>
        </xsl:template>
    
        <!-- This automatically hides items with umbracoNaviHide checked -->
        <xsl:template match="*[umbracoNaviHide = 1]" />
    
    </xsl:stylesheet>

    @Chriztian in your above code, how would you put the class="aktiv" on the <li> which is active instead of on the <a> ?

    Hi Daniel

    If you want to put the class on the <li> instead of the a you can just do like this:

    <xsl:template match="*[@isDoc]">
             
    <li>
    <xsl:if test="$currentPage/ancestor-or-self::*[@id = current()/@id]">
                         
    <xsl:attribute name="class">aktiv</xsl:attribute>
                 
    </xsl:if>

                  <a href="{umb:NiceUrl(@id)}">
                     
    <xsl:value-of select="@nodeName" />
                 
    </a>
    ...
    ...

    - Just move the three lines (<xsl:if> <xsl:attribute>... </xsl:if>) up right after the <li>: 

    <li>
        <xsl:if test="$currentPage/ancestor-or-self::*[@id = current()/@id]">
            <xsl:attribute name="class">aktiv</xsl:attribute>
        </xsl:if>
            <a href="{umb:NiceUrl(@id)}">

    Hi everyone,

    I am trying to adapt the above (thanks Chriztian!), so that the menu has a title in the form of

    <li class="menuHeader">Browse sections</li>

    However, when I put this into the code, the 'Browse sections' either shows:

    a) On ALL pages even with no sub pages so a menu title with no menu OR

    b) In between all <li> elements so 'Browse sections' repeats down the menu.

    I can't figure out a test which would mean this title only shows once, above the menu, but only if the menu is present.

    Any help is always appreciated :) thanks.

    Sam.

    I can expand, I get either:

      <ul class="subMenuLv2">
    <li class="menuHeader">Browse sections</li>
    <li>
    <a href="/about-us/page1.aspx">About 1</a>
    </li>
    <li>
    <a href="/about-us/page2.aspx">About 2</a>
    </li>
    </ul>

    ...the above is how I want it, however, when clicking on a top level page with no sub pages I get this:

    <ul class="subMenuLv2">
    <li class="menuHeader">Browse sections</li>
    </ul>

    which is no good :(

    I thought maybe I could use count to see if page has child nodes, if it does, then show the 'Browse sections', but that wouldn't work either because the 'Browse sections' would disappear when clicking on 'About 1' or 'About 2' as they have no sub pages.

    Then I thought I could test that (a) has sub pages (so 'Browse sections' would display when on top level page) or (b) has a parent page (ie the node must be a sub level if it has a parent?!)

    However, all my top navigations have a parent (home) so once again 'Browse sections' displays on all pages regardless of whether the page has child nodes. Bit confused here.

    Well my first problem I managed to solve :)... but I really wanted the levels to expand when clicked rather than all levels being displayed all the time, here's what I have so far:

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>

    <xsl:stylesheet

            version="1.0"

            xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"

            xmlns:umb="urn:umbraco.library"

            exclude-result-prefixes="umb">



            <xsl:output method="xml" indent="yes" omit-xml-declaration="yes" />



            <xsl:param name="currentPage" />

            <xsl:variable name="siteRoot" select="$currentPage/ancestor-or-self::*[@level = 2]" />

            

            <xsl:template match="/">

              <xsl:if test="count($currentPage/ancestor-or-self::* [@level=2]/* [@isDoc and string(umbracoNaviHide) != '1']) &gt; 0">

                <ul class="subMenuLv2">

                    <li class="menuHeader">Browse sections</li>

                            <!-- Start with children of the site root -->

                            <xsl:apply-templates select="$siteRoot/*[@isDoc]" />

                    </ul>

                </xsl:if>

            </xsl:template>

            

            <xsl:template match="*[@isDoc]">

                    <li>

                      

                     <xsl:if test="$currentPage/@id = current()/@id">

                        <xsl:attribute name="class">current</xsl:attribute>

                      </xsl:if>

                    

                            <a href="{umb:NiceUrl(@id)}">

                                    <xsl:value-of select="@nodeName" />

                            </a>

                            <!-- Make sure there is at least one visible page below, otherwise we get an empty <ul/> -->

                            <!-- If you need to stop at some level, do that here, like this: -->

                            <!-- <xsl:if test="*[@isDoc][not(umbracoNaviHide = 1)][not(level &gt; 4)]"> -->

                            <xsl:if test="*[@isDoc][not(umbracoNaviHide = 1)]">

                                    <ul class="subMenuLv3">

                                            <xsl:apply-templates select="*[@isDoc]" />

                                    </ul>

                            </xsl:if>

                    </li>

            </xsl:template>

            

            <!-- This automatically hides items with umbracoNaviHide checked -->

            <xsl:template match="*[umbracoNaviHide = 1]" />



    </xsl:stylesheet>

    Ideally, when on a top level page, all the level 2 nodes will be displayed. Then, if a user clicks on the level 2 node, then the level 3 ones are displayed. I can get a good result with cog navigation but I am sure this way is better for me because I wont learn a thing just chucking a package in there to do the job.

    Thanks if anyone can help :)

    Sam.
