Hello,

After searching the forum i didn't find any others that seem to have this query, and have read Michael Washingtons tutorial on navigating to additiona controls - however they fire from click events on buttons within the module code.

I am building a module for our website at the moment, its functionality is as follows: There is a table of Products, and a table of margins (%). i have a number of different 'views' of this data i wish to make available to the end users. I had intended to simply create multiple ascx pages..

for example, a page that simply displays a gridview of the products (whole sale price).
a page that shows the products pricing modified by the relative margins
A page that shows editable fields for changing the margins for different products.

I had considered simply having a single ASCX file that enabled/disabled the various gridviews etc as per URL based directive, and can still do this, however i've started coding as separate pages thus far - it doesn't really matter.

My question is, I would my wonderful built in DNN dropdown menu, to show "Pricing" and when you click, it drops down to show 3 options - i cannot see a way of doing this without actually creating separate pages and specifying "Pricing" as the parent, and then i need to create a module anyway to place on the page to trigger the NavigateURL(), or simply to split up the module into 3 separate modules...

Is there something simple i'm missing? What is an advisable way to achieve what i want from the menu?

Thanks again, Charles

Chris,

What i think you're saying, is that each sub-menu item contains a parameter in the querystring that allows my code to identify what content to load? If this is so, yes i'd thought about this and am happy to rework what i've done so far into a single user control with visisbility constraints - however i have no idea how i would modify the built in menu links to incorporate a query string? In my limited experience so far, i add a page - name it, select a parent, and it appears magically in the menu! how can i add a parameter to those pages to achieve my goal?

Thanks

Michael,

Thankyou for pointing out the multiview to me, it seems the perfect way to achieve what i'm after should i incorporate all "pages" into 1 web control. I can see how to use a query string parameter to tell my page which view to activate, however again i'm stuck with this - is there a way to add a parameter to my DNN generated menu if i was to simply add 3 pages, all calling the same module?
