Web Forms :: Manipulating The Format Of A Sitemap Menu Control In A Masterpage
Oct 21, 2010
I'm trying to develop a webpage for a small college who want to keep the format similar to an existing webpage. I've created an ASP.NET master page and included a menu (web.sitemap) to navigate the various pages of the school's site. However, I'm trying to format the menu to match their existing old style html websites.
I need to place a line between the various items of the menu. I've tried border but I need the lines to appear above and below the items (or inbetween) and not on the left and right. I've read that I may have to use CSS to format it the way I want but i can't figure out the code to so.
this is probably something stupid that i am forgetting to do but its got me stumped. I have a web.sitemap file in my app with the following entries
[Code]....
i then slapped a sitemapdatasource into my masterpage with a menu control and changed the design in the designer. I then run the app for my default page /Pages/Default.aspx. when the page comes up i see "Home" with a flare out arrow. when i mouse over home it shoots out a small box, as expected, to the right which obscures my text on the default page. the problem is the flared out box is blank and then i try move over it, essentially moving off home it dissapears. If im not mistaken, even if my links are broken or dont extist i should at least see the text right? so when i mouse over home, in the flareout menu i should see Dive, DIve Location, User, Client, Cert at least in unclickable plain text or something.
All the date values on my website (whether from DB or returned by DateTime.Now) are represented in the format of mm/dd/yyyy hh:mm:ss AM/PM, even though the database values of the dates are not that way at all.I want to change the format of all the dates to dd/mm/yyyy hh:mm:ss without AM/PM.
i have master page in that i have menu control i have child page called userlogin.aspxi wants to call menu control in contentpage(userlogin.aspx page).
I have a menu control which is bound to a siteMapDataSource. And I have a web.sitemap file. What I want is the menu control's will only reflect the current page. I don't want the menu contorl's link can be clicked. And I don't want the menu control's link to be highlighted to red when the respective page is browsed. What I want is just when I browse a page. Then in the menu control, the respective menu will be highlighted. And after that , no highlight and anything is remembered in the menu control.
I've a xhtml/CSS template and the navigation menu looks like this:
[Code]....
And the CSS for this div tag is:
[Code]....
And here's what I wanted to do:
[Code]....
And the CSS format remains the same. However, it's not working. The navigation menu titles don't show up and it's not aligned as in the static menu when not the Menu control was not used.
I've made a web page from the tutorials in "How do I" to link a menu to web.sitemap.
I build the site and no errors come up, the site opens in my browser, part of the menus work but the menu that links to the sitemap is not displaying the menu contents.
I've run the code on another machine and also made the code in VWD2010 and it runs as it should.
Un-installed and re-installed VWD 2008 and still no luck.
I have role assignments on both the first and second level of my menus within my sitemap file. The first level works fine, and I only see items assigned to my role. But roles assignments seem to have no effect on the second level. It seems like if you have access to the first level, you have access to everything on the second level. Is this correct?
From my sitemap (either a SalesRep or an Administrator can see everything underneath): <siteMapNode title="Administration" roles="SalesRep,Administrator" description="Admin" > <siteMapNode title="CompanyMaintenance" roles="SalesRep" url="~/Admin/CompanyManagement.aspx" /> <siteMapNode title="Initialize Roles" roles="Administrator" url="~/Admin/Roles.aspx"/> </siteMapNode>
When I login to application, i want Button ad a Header menu like (Admin,Quote....2 button should visible).
If Login User is Admin/Quote then Click on that Button it should show all its child nodes must be as the button horizontally.
[Code]....
Even i have to write the code in the Code Behind of Site.Master. I think i need Repeter's OnItemCommand event but it does not run that methods and how can i filter the sitemap with Role in this Method? I can not able to Find the control in the Code Behind.. Is it possible to show these type of custom menus using SiteMap with Role Filteration?
I have a MasterPage (MasterPage.master) with 2 child MasterPages (specialMaster.master and standardMaster.master). From the MasterPage.master I need to get at some of the controls in one of the children, specialMaster.master, say for example to hide certain content if a session variable is not null.
in one place i have to dispaly a page in the browser that page is binded with the master page in that page there is another page that consist of onother page this page is aslo binded with masterpage . now i needed to hide the dynamic menu in the second page i tried in other ie.. but it is not comming
any control outside of masterpage contentplaceholder can be accessible or not
I have a few items apart of my Web.sitemap file that rely on querystring or session variables. I do not want these items to appear in my menu. Is there a way to hide it from the menu, but still be in the sitemap (for sitepath control).
I'm trying to change the font color of a sitemap to white. The color is white in the developer screen but black in the browser when I run it. In fact, it should change to white when I hover over it but it does not.
Here is my code perhaps someone could see what I'm doing wrong.
