Thanks Nate, but still really trying and still really battling ...
I'm trying to set one specific top level category to be non-linked ... just the title showing with the linked subcategories showing underneath upon mouseover.
The '<a href' seems to come from the template file 'layersmenu-horizontal_menu.ihtml' . ( or not??)
The relevant code from the template, including the <a href> would be:
<!-- BEGIN cell_link -->
<div id="{menu_layer_label}" class="horizitem {target}" onmouseover="clearLMTO();" onmouseout="setLMTO();">
<a href="{href}"{onmouseover}{title}><img
align="top" src="{imgwww}{transparent}" width="1" height="16" border="0"
alt="" /><!-- BEGIN cell_icon --><img
align="top" src="{iconsrc}" width="{iconwidth}" height="{iconheight}" border="0"
alt="{iconalt}" /> <!-- END cell_icon -->{text}<!-- BEGIN cell_arrow --> <img
src="{imgwww}{downsrc}" width="{downwidth}" height="{downheight}"
border="0" alt=">>" /><!-- END cell_arrow --> </a>
</div>
<!-- END cell_link -->
So, I'd have to switch that part of the template off, correct? ... but if so, what syntax to use and how to code it?
I tried the smarty way,:
{if ($cPath_new == 21)}
<!-- BEGIN cell_link -->
<div id="{menu_layer_label}" class="horizitem {target}" onmouseover="clearLMTO();" onmouseout="setLMTO();">
<a href="{href}"{onmouseover}{title}> etc
{/if}
... but that 'if' syntax doesn't work.
also, removing the ' <a href="{href} ' from the code causes havoc .... please if i may ask for more help ...
TIA
