Add navigation menu

STEP 3. Create Adsense Website - Add navigation menu

:: "You will now create a navigation menu that will be included on every page you create..."

We will now create a menu that will be included on every page - the links will appear on the right side of the page as you add them. Some of the steps are similar to our last adding content lesson, just in case your wondering.

Step 1. Open index.asp

  • Navigate to C\:your-folder-name\index.asp
  • Right mouse click on the file - open with notepad

top

Step 2. Add menu file

With notepad open displaying the code for index.asp, find these tags towards the lower part of the HTML template:

<!--START menu - PLACE inc-right-content.asp between start menu and end menu tags-->

<!--END menu -->

In between these two tags we'll place some code that will display the navigation menu: Copy this exactly:

<!--#include file="inc-right-content.asp">

Now place this code between these the start and end tags...

The whole thing should look like this...

<!--START menu - PLACE inc-right-content.asp between start menu and end menu tags-->
<!--#include file="inc-right-content.asp">
<!--END menu -->

** This block of code will appear in the same place in every HTML page you create. The beauty of this format is every time you create a new page you will add the link detail to "ONE FILE : "inc-right-content.asp" you need not update EVERY page in your website. Imagine if your website grew to 100 pages? It would be crazy editing all the pages when you need to add a link. This global approach to navigation is a basic concept that saves you HOURS of updating HTML by hand.

Let's add links to : "inc-right-content.asp" Add links to menu

Save your file

Now save your file again with the changes you just made as index.asp
