menu not clickable - redirect help

[Roych]

Hello

I need some help with redirecting. I have create a template called (redirect) and AssistedURL field called (redirect_link) for redirecting a page if necessary.

In template I've added:

<?php if($page->redirect_link) $session->redirect($page->redirect_link); ?>

redirect is working, but is it possible to create a link non clickable also, maybe with placing # for link? If I place # now it gives the whole link of the site with /# at the end and gives blank page. So placing (#) would disable a link totaly or something.

Hope u understand what I mean

Thank you

Thank you for answer, but not really sure how could this help me  It's just sometimes the parent menu need's to be unclickable but not sure how to do that from my code above as I'm not a coder, so any help is appreciated.

Thank you

Hi @Roych,

I'm not quite sure I understand. When you say you have a field for redirecting if necessary, what does necessary mean? And a non-clickable link is just text. Can you expand your requirements further so I understand exactly what you are trying to accomplish please? Maybe a screen shot of a similar interface?

[Roych]

It is for main menu and sometimes a link in main menu has to be redirected to external link or non clickable. Sometimes parrent menu has to be non clickable but childrens normal. So the code above is working great for internal and external redirecting (linking) all I need is the posibillity to make it non cliickable also, so maybe with # or something.

So for that kind of page I would give it a redirect template and just enter the url or #.

Don't have any screenshot of something similar  Hope u understand ...

And how do you generate the navigation?

[Roych]

Im using MarkupSimpleNavigation. I was hoping that there is some if-else possibility with my upper code, so when # is pasted then the link is disabled. Not a coder, that is why I asked here.

Thank you

if you have a little courage (and if anyone else is interested), I can write you a little tutorial but you must put your hands dirty ?, let me know.

You will end up with a PHP function (written by @mindplay.dk) ,two templates and pages which will define your menu. I will write the tutorial a bit later in the afternoon.
