NOF 10 help with drop down Navigation and Player and coaches profiles
I am trying to design a youth soccer website for a local recreational club
and I would like to make it interactive and also create pages to include the
coaches bios, player profiles and also to have drop down navigation.
I have about 10 coaches and cannot fit their profile on one page. What is
the best way to approach this. I have created the home page and other pages
but do not know how to handle player profiles and coaches profiles. Any help
will be appreciated and Merry Christmas to all. Thanks for all your posts as
it has helped me so far and I appreciate everyone on this post that have
contributed. God Bless all.

Re: NOF 10 help with drop down Navigation and Player and coaches profiles
Not sure why you cannot fit them all on one page as a page can be as long as
you wish. However, one approach would be a list of the coaches, maybe with
thumbnail photos of them and when you click on their name it either takes
you to a new full page OR pops up a smaller sized window with the bio for
that coach.
Hope that helps. I'll be offline from now until the weekend so I won't
respond again until then.
happy holidays everyone!

Re: NOF 10 help with drop down Navigation and Player and coaches profiles
you could use a database for players and a database for coaches.
you can have the database have default information you would want
Name, age, GPA, goals, ect....
then just have 2 pages on your website one for coaches and one for the
kids..
On each page you can have a dropdown list that populates itself using the
database, so that it is completly dynamic.
once a coach or a team member is selected it can bring up a page with the
coaches and or players Bio.
again this page is populated by your database so only pne page is needed.
I code all my PHP by hand and insert my PHP into NOF using a textbox and the
ctrl-T trick. I just dont like NOF built in database connectors. exp, when
you are connecting to a db that is behind a firewall on your host and does
not alloy remote access.
The script you would like to do is very easy and can be done within a few
mins, assuming your web host gives you database creation access, and MyPHP
control panel. If not the built in NOF database could work, just not as
nice.
feel free to ask me for any help, No charge.
