I am using Joomla v1.7 and the mod_mainmenu is now mod_menu (I think, because there is no mod_mainmenu in the modules folder). In my site I have two menus like most sites, one in the header and another one in the footer. The header menu is a lot more complex with drop downs, while the footer menu simply has four links. I am in the process of overriding the mod_menu template for the header menu but that would also render the same overridden html for footer menu.

How do I make two separate overrides for two separate menus. In the footer I was thinking of hardcoding anchor tags, but that would make it difficult for my client to add or remove links from the footer. How do I do this? Is it possible?

Thanks!

I appreciate the help.

Is there a way to get the name of the category and the link to the category page separately inside the wordpress loop. I don't have the id of the category either and I wanna display images instead of category names therefore the_category() doesn't work for me.

Thanks

Appreciate all the answers...

i don't get it....phpMyAdmin shows an error...

#1133 - Can't find any matching row in the user table

when i entered:

GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON mydb.* TO 'username'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'password';

i have checked it at-least 20 times if i was making a mistake somewhere....but i cant seem to find any....i'm doing exactly what you're saying....how can it not find that field when i can see it...

and when i made this user i did grant all the privileges if thats what the above command is for.

and thanks for the password on root tip....i do have a password now....thanks....

Thanks for the reply.

I did:

GRANT ALL ON mydb.* TO 'username'@'localhost';

but there is a password in this user thats y it probably it gives an error. "couldn't find the field in table users."

and for reference the error it shows in my web app is:

Warning: mysqli::mysqli() [mysqli.mysqli]: (28000/1045): Access denied for user 'username'@'localhost' (using password: YES)

and works perfectly fine if i use root with no password.

i created a new user with all the privileges in mysql and it didn't work. no user works except "root with no password" which is why i created several user and tried it...still didn't work....if anyone know what is wrong....please lemme know....

thank you....

I have applied an image background to the search box using its ID.

Its funny but when i type inside the search box as the text reaches the end of the box it start moving the background image to the left but only in IE6 (which i can ignore) and IE7 (which i cannot), in all the other browsers it works perfectly.

Please run this code and see what happens. If nothing else its funny.
and if u know how to rectify this then plz lemme know.

Thanks!

HTML CODE

<form id="searchform">
	<fieldset class="search">
		<input type="text" id="box" />
		<button id="btn" title="Submit Search">Search</button>
	</fieldset>
</form>

CSS CODE

fieldset.search 
{border: none; width: auto;}

.search input, .search button
{border: none; float: left;}

.search input#box
{position:relative; color: #fff; font-size: 1.2em; width: 190px; height: 33px; padding: 6px 0 0 4px; background: url('../images/search-bg.png') no-repeat; }

.search button#btn 
{width: 73px; height: 33px; cursor: pointer; text-indent: -9999px; background: url('../images/search-btn-bg.png') no-repeat;}

Thanks for the reply Ahmed but can u tell me which library this method is in...coz i am unable to find it....

Thanks.

hey,

I am developing this game of snake, just like the nokia phones have. anyway i have worked on windows till now, but now i am using geany on linux. so there are quite some methods which are not standardised for all platforms. one of them is gotoxy() and i have found that there is ncurses() instead on linux. but i dont know the syntax. if anyone out there knows please help me, or if there is some other method to mess with the coordinates of the screen.

Thanks

I solved it myself......

the code is:

#include<stdio.h>
int main()
{
    int i ,j ,a[5];
    for(i=0;i<=4;i++)
    {
        printf("\n\tEnter the %dst value of the array: ", i+1);
        scanf("%d", &a[i]);
    }
    j = a[0];
    printf("\n\tOriginal array entered by the user: ");
    for(i=0;i<=3;i++)
    {
        printf(" %d ", a[i]);
        if(a[i]<a[i+1])
        {
             j = a[i+1];
        }
    }
    printf("\n\n\tGreatest no. from the array: %d", j);
getch();
return 0;
}

the loop that was comparing the numbers was looping one extra time so i limited it to 4 times (i<=3) instead of 5(i.e. the array size).....

now it works fine......

and i dont see a better way of doing it......maybe there is a easier way.......

#include<stdio.h>
int main()
{
    int i ,j ,a[5];
    for(i=0;i<=4;i++)
    {
        printf("\n\tEnter the %dst value of the array: ", i+1);
        scanf("%d", &a[i]);
    }
    j = a[0];
    printf("\n\tOriginal array entered by the user: ");
    for(i=0;i<=4;i++)
    {
        printf(" %d ", a[i]);
        if(a[i]<a[i+1])
        {
             j = a[i+1];
        }
    }
    printf("\n\n\tGreatest no. from the array: %d", j);
getch();
return 0;   
}

according to me there is no problem in this code.......

but its printing some wierd values again n again.....

plz...help me out here....

My Wierd Output:

Enter the 1st value of the array: 56

Enter the 2st value of the array: 35

Enter the 3st value of the array: 26

Enter the 4st value of the array: 15

Enter the 5st value of the array: 24

Original array entered by the user: 56 35 26 15 24

Greatest no. from the array: 4007048

i figured it out myself:

i used the height vaiable i declared on top for comparing and inside divminus() and divplus()
and removed the hideInnerSlide() completely

CODE:

var active= 0;
var height= 0;

function toggle_visible(){
if(active==0){
	active = 1;
	divplus();
}
else if(active==1){
	active = 0;
	divminus();
}
}

function divminus(){
if(height>=1){
	height = height - 5;
	document.getElementById('slide_box').style.height = height + "px";
	if(height < 230){
		document.getElementById('marq_box').style.display="none";
	}
	window.setTimeout('divminus()',1);					
}
else{
	document.getElementById('slide_box').style.display="none";
}
}

function divplus(){
if(height <= 250){
	document.getElementById('slide_box').style.display="block";
	height = height + 5;
	document.getElementById('slide_box').style.height = height + "px";
	if(height > 240){
		document.getElementById('marq_box').style.display="block";
	}
	window.setTimeout('divplus()',1);
}
}

function hidePtr(){
shown = document.getElementById('pointer').style.visibility == "visible";
unshown= document.getElementById('pointer').style.visibility = "hidden";
if(shown){
	document.getElementById('pointer').style.visibility = "hidden";
}
else if(unshown)
{
	document.getElementById('pointer').style.visibility == "visible";
}
}

Javascripters plz help

		active = 0;
		divplus();
	}
}

function divminus(){
if(height>=1){
	height = height - 5;

		height = height + 5;
		document.getElementById('slide_box').style.height = height + "px";
		window.setTimeout('divplus()',1);
	}
}

function hidePtr(){
	shown = document.getElementById('pointer').style.visibility == "visible";
	unshown= document.getElementById('pointer').style.visibility = "hidden";
	if(shown){
		document.getElementById('pointer').style.visibility = "hidden";
	}
	else if(unshown)
	{
		document.getElementById('pointer').style.visibility == "visible";
	}

function hideInnerSlide(){
	ht = document.getElementById('slide_box').style.height;
	if(ht <= 219)
	{
		document.getElementById('marq_box').style.display="none";
		divminus();
	}
}
}
