Content Editor Web Part to Modify Top Nav

Asked By: Vaughn Morin Date: Sep 29, 2005 Category: Sharepoint Views: 347

I have a subsite that I want to change the Up To link on in the
top nav bar. Right now it point to the site above it--I want it to
point to the portal. Trying to change that in the site settings simply
takes me to the top level admin. I think I should be able to do it
with the CEWP, but my optimism has outstripped my skills.

In the source code for the page, I found this:
<a id="onetidPortalConn" href="/sites/asite"><nobr>Up to A
Site</nobr></a>
which seems to be the reference I need to change. I copied it and
pasted it into the CEWP, which, of course, gave me a nice link in the
web zone with the CEWP. What do I need to do to change that link in
the nav bar?

Insert this into the CEWP Source:

<script>
var portalConnection = document.getElementById("onetidPortalConn");
portalConnection.href = "{Portal URL}";
portalConnection.innerHTML = "<nobr>Up to {Portal Name}</nobr>";
</script>

Change {Portal URL} to the URL of your Portal
Change the {Portal Name} to the Name of your portal.

Then mark the Content Editor Webpart as hidden (so it doesn't take up space in your layout.)
You do this by un-checking the "visible on page" checkbox under the layout section of the toolbar
