thanks Massimo and phyo! no idea why but after trying Massimos latest code i get same error
ValueError: too many values to unpack this is whats in the ticket if response.menu: response.write('\n <ul>\n ',escape=False) for name,active,link in response.menu: response.write('\n <li ',escape=False) if active: response.write('id="nav-active"',escape=False) pass response.write('><a href="',escape=False) response.write(link) response.write('">',escape=False) response.write(name) response.write('</a></li>\n ',escape=False) pass response.write('\n </ul>\n\n ',escape=False) pass may be this stupid question of mine will solve the error is this what goes in the view? {{for head in response.menu: print A(head[0],_href=head[2])}} {{for item in head[3]: print '-',A(item[0],_href=item[2])}} or am i putting {{}} in wrong places? thanks again mates this is really helping me and hopefully a few other newbies also!! yeah I been getting some nice layouts and menus in web2py from some cool css sites. applied them to the first generated menu i made. hope to do same with this one with headers. checked openwebdesign before and its a sweet place! --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web2py Web Framework" group.
