Hi all,
I'm busy building a website. I cannot use frames.
Every page can be divided in a table with 3x3 cells.
The row will be my main menu.
The first column wil be submenu.
The middel cell will display the actual content.
| |
<--main menu-->
----------------|-------------- |---------------
sub | main | sub content
menu | content |
| |
----------------|-------------- |--------------
<--footer-->
| |
the main menu will always be the same, same as the footer --> includes
the main content cell depends on which submenu function is choosen.
Some submenu items are:
login
search in database
add to your favourite items
add to basket
Now I was wondering how to build my site. How should I deal with a function like 'add
to basket'. I mean, when a certain item is displayed and the customer wants to add it
to their basket I have call the script add_to_basket.php or something like that.
However I don't want to leave the page where the item is displayed, cause that's
confusing to the visitor. Even more..In the 'sub-content' cell I want to display data
about ordering info, like there are so many items in the basket.
So I have to call upon a script which stores the info about add_to_basket, load a
total new page where 1 table cell changes, namely the sub-content cell, but still
displayes the original product.
So, If I were to use frames It could be done, but now I'm not thinking of frames but
of displaying content dynamically in a tabe cell.
I would very much appreciate your expert opinion on this matter, I'm sure every idea
helps me form my own ideas which I can use.
maybe there are people out there who have done this kind of thing, or know about large
sites which use this same concept....
Any philosophies are much appreciated!
