First, thank you for your patience and please forgive the lengthy blurb. This is a bit complicated, but I am sure there is a fix.
My website is heavily CSS structured for layout and styles for its Side-bar, heading, menu, etc. A modified CSS is used for the content and the content section is now an Iframe where all content is targeted. This was done to prevent duplication of parent. I am using GOOGLE site-map generator for the web and FreeFind for my site. Site consists of hundreds of HTML each consisting of an Image linked to a bigger image, Content, PayPal Links and other content all created with Excel for the code, Nvu for the file-saves and HTMLToolkit for the previews and error checking. When someone clicks an image anywhere on the site, it opens the HTML associated with it giving all the information about the Image. By the way, they are all table-based pages; DUMB, I know. The Problem: All these pages require updates or deletions depending on stock and pricing for any given item and frequent crawler checks for broken links afterwards. My site Spiders at roughly 500 pages and it keeps growing and getting out of hand. HELLLLLP!!!! On a more personal note; the author of the website (that’s me) is loosing his vision and can no-longer keep-up with this maddening effort… Proposed solution: I believe that enclosing all images and their associated content in DIVS is the better way to go. The idea is to have all images along with its content on one HTML. There are different categories that would use their own pages but the goal is to remove those hundreds of HTML pages and replace them with maybe a couple of dozen Category pages instead. There are as few as 1 or 2 items to as many as 100 items for any given category that would be shown 1-at-a-time using PREV - NEXT links. What I would like to accomplish is;
Whew!!! I told you it was complicated. Any assistance on setting this up (show 1 and hide the rest) is greatly appreciated. CHEERS This post has been edited by Baffled in Baltimore: Jan 9 2009, 05:56 PM |

Thank you for your response
I am going blind from a motorcycle accident that caused nerve damage and as a result, I have to do thyings differently. No, not one-big HTML; this would be totally wrong. The issue is not data access either, it is running div'd content on a hand full of pages as opposed to running many pages. What I am proposing is placing items in divs by category, with each category being a page of its own. There may be 20 categories (pages) altogether. In other words, 1, 2, or ,maybe 20 current HTML items (pages) now become 1-page of div'd content. This would be far more manageable than trying to keep up with several hundred individual pages and to stream-line things When 1 item (div) of say; 20 on the same page is selected, the rest of the div'd items remain hidden. This is where I need help, hiding the rest when 1 is selected and doing so using a couple of links. When another div'd item is selected by using a Next or Prev link, it closes the visible content and opens the new selection; hiding the rest of them again. How is the code for this written? I tried researching this but have too much trouble seeing Thanks again |
