Easy Nav for ColdFusion

Primary Category: ColdFusionIn this tutorial I will show you how to develop a navigation handler in ColdFusion that will do the following:

  • The navigation would be made up of a CSS styled unordered list, <ul>
  • Each list item, <li>, within the <ul> would be a link to a page within the site
  • Each <li> would contain an anchor (a) with an href to the target page.
  • Whichever page the visitor was on at the moment should not show up as a link in the nav, rather it should just show <strong> so as to indicate the current location and avoid self-referencing links
  • It should be self updating as the navigation changes so that no manual changes are necessary to the code to 'code-around' the links on each target page
