Problem using Sothink DHTML menu

[Barry]

HI GUys

Anyone using Sothinks DHtml menu on their sites?

I am and all works well until you log in to your cutomer account. no probems anywhere.

But once you log in, navigating using the dhtml menu means that you do not see the discout prices that you should be seeing. If you navigat usinig the Actinic features such as Search, then you see the discount prices ok

IS there a snippet of code needed to add to the dhtml menu code to allow the customer account feature function to work properly?

I would be very grateful is anyone has any info on this, there is nothing on the Sothink website regarding this

the site is www.aquasafepfw.co.uk/acatalog

you can log in and see the problem with;

username watertalks
password alozaina24

thanks very much guys for any help yo0u can give

Regards

Barry

I'm guessing this is because your menu is using hard-coded links for navigation and the Search etc. use cgi commands (ss000001.pl etc.). Watch what pops-up in the browser status bar (at the botom) when you hover over menu links and over search results.

The member's login needs the cgi commands to be used for all navigation because login state is one of the cgi parameters. You can change your menu script to use cgi navigation.

Afterthought: I'm not sure how you would get the login status into the menu script - it would have to be dynamic in some way.

Hi there, thanks for the tip!

ive had a look at another site using Norman from Drillpine's Nortree Menu and it uses the following code to (i presume) solve this

</script><script language=JavaScript>var LoggedIn = true;</script><Actinic:NOTINB2B><script language=JavaScript>var LoggedIn = false;</script></Actinic:NOTINB2B>

so im trying to implement this in the Sothink Dhtml code, ill post back the results

Not to sure how to do it though so if anyone has any ideas.....

thanks again for the tip Mr Compton

i think im going to cop out on this one and switch to Drillpiness Norcascade, much easier solution!
