[TYPO3] split navigatin per level

Wed Aug 9 22:53:47 CEST 2006

Hi Tim

I've achieved exactly the effact you describe based on the Modern Template
Building tutorial using the Template Auto-parser extension...

In my html template I have the two areas set as CSS styled divs. The menus
themselves are also wrapped in css styled divs allowing you to style them
too. The  areas are replaced with dynamic content

  <div id="mainnavcontainer"> 
          <!-- ###mainnav### -->
          main nav here
          <!-- ###mainnav### -->
        </div>

And

 <div id="left"> 
        <!-- ###subnav### -->
        <div id="subnavcontainer"> subnav here </div>
        <!-- ###subnav### -->
        <!-- ###colLeft### -->
        lefthand column 
        <!-- ###colLeft### -->
</div>

[you'll note that the content for the left hand column is inserted below the
subnav menu]

The TS in the template is something like this

# Configuring the Auto-Parser for main template:

plugin.tx_automaketemplate_pi1 {

# Read the template file:

content = FILE
content.file = fileadmin/templates/page.html

# Here we define which elements in the HTML that 
# should be wrapped in subpart-comments:

elements {
BODY.all = 1
BODY.all.subpartMarker = DOCUMENT_BODY

HEAD.all = 1
HEAD.all.subpartMarker = DOCUMENT_HEADER
HEAD.rmTagSections = title

#uncomment this to wrap all divs
#DIV.all = 1
  }

# Prefix all relative paths with this value:
relPathPrefix = fileadmin/templates/
}

##

# Main TEMPLATE cObject for the BODY
temp.mainTemplate = TEMPLATE
temp.mainTemplate {

  # Feeding the content from the Auto-parser to the TEMPLATE cObject:
  template =< plugin.tx_automaketemplate_pi1

  # Select only the content between the <body>-tags
  workOnSubpart = DOCUMENT_BODY

# Substitute the subparts
subparts {
mainnav < temp.mainnav
subnav < temp.subnav
colNormal < styles.content.get
colRight < styles.content.getRight
colLeft < styles.content.getLeft
}
}

# Main TEMPLATE cObject for the HEAD
temp.headTemplate = TEMPLATE

temp.headTemplate {
  # Feeding the content from the Auto-parser to the TEMPLATE cObject:
  template =< plugin.tx_automaketemplate_pi1

  # Select only the content between the <head>-tags
  workOnSubpart = DOCUMENT_HEADER
}

# Default PAGE object:
page = PAGE
page.typeNum = 0

# Copying the content from TEMPLATE for <body>-section:
page.10 < temp.mainTemplate

# Copying the content from TEMPLATE for <head>-section:
page.headerData.10  < temp.headTemplate

tt_content.stdWrap.space = 0

##

#TS Setup to parse the navigation

# Menu 1 cObject
temp.mainnav = HMENU

# First level menu-object, textual
temp.mainnav.1 = TMENU
temp.mainnav.1 {
  expALL = 1
  ACT = 0
  # Normal state properties
  NO.allWrap = <div class="mainnav">|</div><div class="navspace"></div>

  # Enable active state and set properties:
  ACT = 1
  ACT.allWrap = <div class="mainnav-down">|</div><div
class="navspace"></div>
}

# subnav Menu (menu_1) cObject with 2 levels
temp.subnav = HMENU
temp.subnav.wrap = <div id="subnavcontainer">|</div>

temp.subnav.entryLevel = 1
  # First level menu-object, textual
temp.subnav.1 = TMENU
temp.subnav.1 {
    # Normal state properties
  NO.allWrap = <div class="subnav"> | </div>
    # Enable active state and set properties:
  ACT = 1
  ACT.allWrap = <div class="subnav-down"> | </div>
}
  # Second level menu-object, textual
temp.subnav.2 = TMENU
temp.subnav.2 {
    # Normal state properties
  NO.allWrap = <div class="subnav1"> | </div>
    # Enable active state and set properties:
  ACT = 1
  ACT.allWrap = <div class="subnav1-down"> | </div>
}

##

Hope this makes sense... I have the sections of it split up in a sys folder
called template-store then linked to the home and internal page templates as
described in the tutorial (if I remember right!)

Subject: [TYPO3] split navigatin per level

Hello,

I am wondering if it's possible to split up the menu in 2 levels and place
them somewhere different in the html template with two different markers?

e.g. level one would be in a <td> on the top and is horizontal and level 2
would be in a different <td> at the left side of the template and is
vertical.

It's a very conservative navigation but I can't seem to find an example for
it.

Thanks for any help!!
