Spry/Sothink open panel issue

Question

I created a DHTML menu with sothink dhtml menu builder and
have no idea where to put in the code that would make certain links
open certain tabs.
Any help would be great.

Hello hosss9009,
The
http://designlev.com/test/
will not take you to the content page because you have to the
onclick the following code to be executed for that entry in the
menu:
TabbedPanels1.showPanel(3); return false;
You see that return false; at the end of the line? That part
will instruct the browser to not follow the href part of the link
so the only action that will be done is to try to show the fourth
panel of the tabset in page that doesn't have such a panel.
When you remove this code the browser will follow the href
after will execute the onclick before so the result will be that
you will see the first panel on the other page.
The solution you are looking for is to add the panel number
in the URL as a parameter like panel and your URL to look something
like this:
http://designlev.com/test/content.html?panel=3.
Then, when the page was loaded you can create a script based on the
Data
with URL Parameters sample which show you how you can extract a
parameter from the URL and then use it, as in your case to show a
panel.
