Thanks for all the help, guys. @rwagner: I've considered the 'link to the lower page' route, but I'm not sure that will give the desired effect for the actual linking (as opposed to the data) aspect of this. I'm certainly going to give it a go first though!
@Wayne, markus: The render tags option definitely seems like a workable solution, and it's probably a good idea to familiarise myself with this technique in general. I'm just trying to avoid overcomplicating things, if at all possible. I think it's a real shame that a pretty basic site structure requires so many different languages (reddot tags, render tags, navigation manager, vbscript, etc.) when implemented in RedDot as opposed to a single, flexible language like PHP. Ah, well - I'll stop moaning and get on with it! ;-) Cheers, - Bobby On May 27, 4:31 am, markus giesen <[email protected]> wrote: > Broken link...
