FW: [thelist] JSP Help

[Ani Phelan]

That could work, but what about all the other pages on the site? For
every page that isn't Wireless or Switches, I want to load Routers
expanded..

Uh, that's not what I'm seeing; when I click on Wireless, I see a
"Coming Soon" in a sub-list but the Routers list collapses -- hence
my confusion :-)

However,

? So call it class="dummy", or "null" or something.

<%
	String routerClass   = "null";
	String switchesClass = "null";
	String wirelessClass = "null";
	if (onPage.startsWith("/cisco/systems/routers/")) {
	  routerClass = "treenodeshow"; }
	if (onPage.startsWith("/cisco/systems/switches/")) {
	  switchClass = "treenodeshow"; }
	if (onPage.startsWith("/cisco/systems/wireless/")) {
	  wirelessClass = "treenodeshow"; }
%>
<li class="<%= routerClass %>">Routers
  ...
<li class="<%= switchesClass %>"> Switches
  ...
<li class="<%= wirelessClass %>"> Wireless
  ...

Note: this approach also minimizes the curly-brace proliferation of
the original code :-)

FWIW!
