Newbie help! breacrumb starting Subdirectory

Satchi · #1 (**permalink**) 08-08-10, 07:34 AM

hiya,

I'm so new to this and need a lot of help. I've a child site that I've built on my companys intranet - using sharepoint. However, rather than using more child sites, I've set up a page that dymanically fills based on info pulling through from a list on a custome built url

I want to set up a breadcrumb starting at my child site as Home, and then location based from there, however my URL's are based on filters like subdirectory/trade=Abbey&sector=retail or subdirectory/cover=md&sector=retail&trade=abbey etc......I want my breadcrumb to show:

Subdirectory : Abbey
or
subdirectory : Abbey : MD

Can I build a breadcrumb from the URL?

All help appreciated.

Hi,

Since you posted this in the javascript forum I suppose you want a javascript solution. Maybe this will put you on the right track:

javascript Code:

<html>
<head>
 
<script>
 
function getQSParameter( name )
{
  name = name.replace(/[\[]/,"\\\&#91;").replace(/[\]]/,"\\\&#93;");
  var regexS = "[\\?&]"+name+"=([^&#]*)";
  var regex = new RegExp( regexS );
  var results = regex.exec( window.location.href );
  if( results == null )
    return "";
  else
    return results[1];
}
</script>
 
</head>
 
<body>
<script>document.write("<a href='your link back goes here'>" + getQSParameter('trade') + "</a> : <a href='your link back goes here'>" + getQSParameter('cover')); + "</a>"</script></a>
</body>
</html>
