I am trying to develop a tabbed system to represent my data. I am seeing that many approaches use format for the tabs to directly navigate to the content of that tab. Is this the one and only way to develop tabbed contents? My problem is
here is the fiddle
jsfiddle.net/rQTpB/4
I need to include this tabs a part of a larger home page. if I develop the tabs using the above approach, when I click on any of the tabs,the page snaps to the starting of the div. I don't want that to happen. I need the tabbed functionality without that snap issue. Is there any other way to achieve my requirement?
So , far couldn't find any..:(
Thanks,
This is very nice work. But you could use some ready solutions for tabs. E.g. jquery ui:
http://api.jqueryui.com/tabs/
or - based on the above, but more functions avaliable:

I don't have any experience using HTML code, but I wanted to display buttons on a SharePoint page on the same line. It currently just lets me arrange the buttons on top of each other. This takes too much real estate on the page and creates unnecessary white space. I do not want to create separate sections on the page for individual buttons.
The buttons house a link to views in a document library.
Is there a way I can do that using The Modern Script Web Part?
The button names:
Presentation documents.
Report documents.
All other documents.
We are using SharePoint Online with no Power Apps.
Thank you
You can probably achive what you want using the "Quick Links" web part. It looks like a list of buttons.
You can, of course, build it using the script web part (or even your own web part), but that would need admin permissions to install and enable this web part (thus compromising security), and then some efforts writing html code and then supporting all that mess.
I have made a couple of simple Joomla websites before. Those are using a custom template made by myself. They are easy websites as they have a simple linear menu, all pages have the same layout, just some articles are changing between pages.
But in my new project, I have a ready html website that I have to convert to Joomla. The problem is, there is no one repeating menu and there is no consistent layout. To simplify a bit: there are 10 pages and they all have different layouts. Between pages background changes, menu position changes, menu content changes, content box positions change, everything changes. This means I'm not able to do this site as I've done before, using one template index.php which simply contained my repeating page structure.
I am dreaming of a way to simply change ready_page1.html to ready_page1.php, adding some modules inside the php (which are then available for online editing, which is the reason switching to Joomla). I would do this to each page. The custom menus inside each page I would "manually" point to the according php files instead of the old html files. Is this method possible somehow? I couldn't figure out how to do this.
I don't care loosing lots of Joomla basic functionality due to this crude method, I just want the simplest way to do this.
In the end, I just want the exact same website I already have on html, but I want some chosen rectangular areas in the html pages to be editable Joomla modules. The modules would have the pen icon for editing. That's it, no other functionality is necessary.
Sounds like the site you are converting is a usability nightmare. Consistency is part of giving the user a positive experience. That said, if you have to make it exactly the same, then the easiest way is to do it the right way to begin with.
First, you need to learn about page class suffixes. You can add those to a menu item so that you can control the CSS on a per page basis. This will allow you to change backgrounds and other elements on each page.
Documentation - http://docs.joomla.org/Page_Class_Suffix
Next, you will need to make a template so that each of the module positions is collapsible. If you plan out the positions, you should be able to use a single index.php for the entire site. We have a custom template that we use for every site we do and it rarely needs to be touched because all of the positions we would possibly want to use are already there, they just don't get used until a module is put in the position.
Documentation - http://docs.joomla.org/Collapsing_columns
You will also want to make sure you understand menu assignments. You should be able to assign the modules to the pages as needed to create the layout you want for each page. If you are using 2.5.x, then you can probably get by with the built in menu assignment features. If you are using 1.5.x then (you really should upgrade) you will probably want to use Advanced Module Manager as it makes menu assignments much easier and more flexible.
Documentation - http://docs.joomla.org/Help15:Screen.modules.edit.15#Menu_Assignment
Once you get a good grasp of how Joomla templates work and how they are supposed to be used you will find that you can basically do anything you want within the framework so you don't lose any functionality.
build your website and create those 10 pages (contents, heirarcy, and so on..).
then create your templates based on those html files. this is where you adapt the html into a joomla template. after this step, you should end up with at most 10 templates depending on your styles (crude but quick)
as far as i know and from the documentation, Joomla 1.7 supports "template per page" (see the screenshot). you can pick out which style will be applied to which item. it even applies to subpages. another documentation here
Is there any other way to access one and the same menu without re-adding the code for it in each "page"?
I mean a menu looks exactly the same, no matter which part of the site you´re in.
So there should be a way to have that menu attached to every page on the site without adding the code for every page you create?
Which language you want to use for your site development?
There are lot of frameworks available for each language.
For example struts with tiles in java.
In tiles concept you will be defining some base layouts. which will specify header here sidebar here etc.
Then on next pages you can simply extend your new page into your base layout. There even if you are not specifying any content specifically, it will take previously defined one by default.
For example refer the struts tiles example link.
In jsp there is an option to add a page within an another page. Key word is
<%# include file='menu.jsp'%>
here menu.jsp is mu menu bar, which I am calling to a location in my page. So hat it it will appear in the place where I specified. If you are not comfortable with tiles concept, you can use this method for adding menu into your pages with out repeating entire codes in all pages.
There are a good number of ways to do this, and as far as I am concerned, they all use PHP or something similar to generate the HTML menu code on each individual page.
The browser must have all the content or it will not display a particular part. One can either hard code something like a menu into every html page or they could create something more of a php site which generates the html and serves it to the browser.
Other the writing the php yourself, off the shelf solutions will (often) allow you to do this. Examples would be shopping carts, as well as content management systems (CMS).
I'm in the process of writing a website and I want some tabs on the side of my website. I want the website to flow well, so I don't want a simple graphical link to a website, but rather an interactive tab system where you can click on what you want and you will get there instantly.
My experience is limited to XHTML and CSS, so I probably am not advanced enough to know how to do this, but I am willing to learn anything needed to accomplish making my vision reality.
Sorry I can't give examples. I know I've seen it before, I just can't think of where.
Use Javascript; I would recommend jQuery.
Approach 1: The idea is to initially hide the contents of the tab, then show the corresponding one when a tab is clicked. There's already a JQuery Plugin for this: http://jqueryui.com/demos/tabs/
Approach 2: If you have huge contents, I would suggest to use AJAX to load the contents of each tab on demand. This way, all of the contents are not loaded in one go thus saving bandwidth and improving performance. However, this approach needs knowledge in server-side programming, in a way this is more advanced than Approach 1.
There are plenty of examples of HTML/CSS layouts on the internet. Here are some resources:
http://www.maxdesign.com.au/articles/css-layouts/
http://www.code-sucks.com/css%20layouts/
Jotform.com uses a nice panel bar, the navigation system in the left side. It looks polished and is rich in functionality. The items have a highlight and have help '?' functionality which display a preview upon hovering.
I don't know if they built it themselves. I was wondering if there's a jQuery plugin or UI
Framework that helps me build something very similar. I already have Telerik's controls however this one looks cooler.
They probably did it with one of the JavaScript libraries they link to on the webpage. The probably did it with this one?
Edit: I was incorrect on closer inspection is is this file that is used when the side panel is used, but I cannot find the library that it came from.
Perhaps you could just contact them and ask?
