Tab index

[mrs incredible]

Hi
Considering a couple of changes to our site.
What is it called when you have section headings that run along the top that look like a card index?
Is this easy to do?
If it's not easy would it be costly to have done?

Usually called tab navigation.

Setting up depends on if you want it maintained by Actinic or yourself. Maintaining/creating it yourself should be straight forward by adding into the Act_Primary, Act_PrimaryCheckout and Act_BrochurePrimary template.

Depending on which theme you are using probably just requires a new table inserting with each cell showing a background image or colour (for the tab effect) and then hardcoding the link to the various sections. You can do this with CSS to great effect using the ul display:inline code but is more difficult to set up if you are not familiar with html / css

Here is a simple table with 7 cells across which may be of use to get you started - 750 pixels wide

<table width="750" border="0">
  <tr>
    <td background="2.jpg"><div align="center"><a href="index.htm">link1</a></div></td>
    <td background="2.jpg"><div align="center"><a href="index.htm">link2</a></div></td>
    <td background="2.jpg"><div align="center"><a href="index.htm">link3</a></div></td>
    <td background="2.jpg"><div align="center"><a href="index.htm">link4</a></div></td>
    <td background="2.jpg"><div align="center"><a href="index.htm">link5</a></div></td>
    <td background="2.jpg"><div align="center"><a href="index.htm">link6</a></div></td>
    <td background="2.jpg"><div align="center"><a href="index.htm">link7</a></div></td>
  </tr>
</table>

The 2.jpg is the cell background image.
