in submenu I want to put the links but they are opening in the new windows or on the same window

you can do this by using a iframe inside the div

eg:

<div id="iframe_div">
<iframe src="" width="500" height="500"></iframe>
</div>

and alter these lines (i guess)

<a href="link1.php" id="menuItem1">link 1</a>
<a href="link2.php" id="menuItem2">link 2</a>
<a href="link3.php" id="menuItem3">link 3</a>
<a href="link4.php" id="menuItem4">link 4</a>

to something like

<a href="link1.php" onclick="javascript:document.getElementById('my_iframe').src='link1.php'" id="menuItem1">link 1</a>

and give the id of iframe as my_iframe

<div id="iframe_div">
<iframe id="my_iframe" src="" width="500" height="500"></iframe>
</div>

where should i put this

<div id="iframe_div">
<iframe id="my_iframe" src="" width="500" height="500"></iframe>
</div>

Kiran Paul VJ

put that in your master file, the file which shows all contents

when I click on the link it is still not showing page in the iframe code attached

main.html
 
<div id="iframe_div">
<iframe id="my_iframe" src="" width="500" height="500"></iframe>
</div>
 
submenu.html
 
     <li>
	 <a href="addCricketMatch.php" onclick="javascript:document.getElementById('my_iframe').src='addCricketMatch.php'" id="menuItem1">Add Cricket Match(s)</a>

Open in new window
