Hi

I’m attempting to create a non-clickable top level menu placeholder in this template. I’m using Transmenu option.

Unfortunately, the placeholder is clickable with a “#” which is returning to the top domain page (homepage)

Have searched and found this old thread..

http://www.joomlart.com/forums/topic/root-menu-link-problem/

…but the “ja-transmenu.php” file for this template has that suggested patch already applied

Greatful for any ideas on how to have a non-clickable menu item (placeholder)

thanks, J

Dear johnmarquess,
You can try to put javascript: in your URL insteed of #.
Otherwise, please post what you want the placeholders look like and I will help you on this.

Thanks for the quick offer of help but I think I have just solved it!

By searching for other sites that use transmenu with placeholders I came up with this soution

In the file /www/templates/ja_quillaja/ja_transmenu/ja-transmenu.php
at line 235


case 3:
// don't link it
$txt = '<a href="#" class="'. $menuclass .'" '. $id .$title.'><span>'. $txt .'</span></a>';
break;


I changed the line to


$txt = '<a class="'. $menuclass .'" '. $id .$title.'><span>'. $txt .'</span></a>';


Droping the HREF and that works for me.

I am guessing that that the A Href=”#” use to work on older browsers – but in IE7 and FF2.0 it returns you to root.

Hopefully that will help someone else searching for this. Have marked as solved

thanks
J
