ASP.NET Web Pages - Adding Navigation
Learn ASP.NET Web Pages by building a web site from scratch.
Part VI: Adding a Navigation Menu.
What We Will Do
In this chapter we will:
Add a Navigation Menu
To add a navigation menu, edit your layout file (Layout.cshtml).
Put the following (red marked) code inside the layout file:
Layout.cshtml
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<link rel="stylesheet"
href="Site.css">
</head>
<body>
<ul
id="menu">
<li><a href="Default">Home</a></li>
<li><a href="About">About</a></li>
<li><a href="Customers">Data</a></li>
<li><a href="Register">Register</a></li>
<li><a href="Login">Login</a></li>
</ul>
<div id="main">
@RenderBody()

</div>
</body>
</html>
The layout file above, is a copy of the layout file from the previous chapter, with an added unordered list.
Edit The Style Sheet
Now, edit your style sheet (Site.css):
Put the following (red marked) code inside the file:
Site.css
body
{
font: "Trebuchet MS", Verdana,
sans-serif;
background-color: #5c87b2;
color: #696969;
}
#main
{
padding: 30px;
background-color: #ffffff;
border-radius: 0 0
4px 4px;
}
h1
{
font: Georgia, serif;
border-bottom: 3px solid #cc9900;
color: #996600;
}
/* Forms */
fieldset label
{
display:block;
padding:4px;
}
input[type="text"],input[type="password"]
{
width:300px;
}
input[type="submit"]
{
padding:4px;
}
/* Menu */
ul#menu
{
padding: 0px;
position: relative;
margin: 0;
}
ul#menu li
{
display:
inline;
}
ul#menu li a
{
background-color: #ffffff;
padding: 10px 20px;
text-decoration: none;
line-height: 2.8em;
color: #034af3;
border-radius: 4px 4px 0 0;
}
ul#menu li
a:hover
{
background-color: #e8eef4;
}
