WebYep Menu with Frameset?

I would like to create a menu using the WebYep menu action that opens it’s associated pages in a frame on the same page. I do not understand how to do it going by the instructions in the manual. I have tried setting the target to the iFrame that I have created on my page, but it always opens in a new window.

Can someone help me out?

You don’t need a frame set. (Frame set are not a good idea these days)

If you set you’re webyep menu action to point to the ‘same’ page, webyep will behalf like a frame set and load the same page with the addition that any other webyep item on this same page publishes it’s edited contents.

Thanks, David! So do I just set the “URL” to the page that the menu is on, and create an HTML item and enter it’s name into the blank box of the WebYep Menu action settings?

Yep that’s it. Webyep will create a new instance of the page for every webyep menu item you create. And the menu stays put in the same position.

Hmmm… I tried that and it didn’t work. It keeps opening the links in a new tab. Any ideas? Thanks again.

Ok- I’ve got that figured out. Now my question is- can I do the same thing using images to create the menu? Thanks again.

Just in case people are wondering, I am trying to recreate the “Recordings” section of this page with WebYep:

racking my brain…

Thanks in advance for any ideas.

You’re going to struggle putting WebYep into such a tight layout like the site you mention ~ slidey bits and all.

You can create an image menu, but you don’t use the Menu item, you use an WebYep image in a loop, and point the image URL to the page you want to display (itself) ~ never tried this myself.

Thanks, David. The layout for my site is actually larger, so I won’t have such a hard time getting things to fit…plus, there’s no Flash on my site. You actually found my other post on ObDev regarding this!

The tricky part is getting the CD covers (Image loop) to remain at the top of the page, while the content changes at the bottom of the page depending on which CD cover is clicked. Ideas on how to do that?

Thanks again.

Your going to have to do this with CSS styles to make the images float:left within a container so they stack up like your example site.

I would be this by putting your WebYep image inside a div and then pasting inside a containing div and floating it left in the inspector palette. The loop start and end surrounds this div.

<container_div>
