Taxonomy DDS jump menu based on page
Last modified: December 8, 2007 - 14:27
The Taxonomy Drop Down Select Jump Menu page got me started in the direction I wanted to go for my site. I have modified the 5.x code to make it a bit more dynamic depending on the page I am viewing.
<?php
$output = drupal_get_form('Category_dropdown_form', $form);
return $output;
function Category_dropdown_form() {
$vid=str_replace($GLOBALS['base_path'],'',request_uri());
if (drupal_get_normal_path($vid)) {
$vid=str_replace('taxonomy/term/','',drupal_get_normal_path($vid));
$term = taxonomy_get_term($vid);
$vid = $term->vid;
}
if (!is_numeric ($vid)) {
$vid=8;
}
$vName = taxonomy_get_vocabulary($vid);
$formname=$vName->name;
$vocabulary = db_query("SELECT td.name, td.tid FROM {term_data} td WHERE td.vid=%d ORDER BY td.name", $vid);
// Initialise the country array
$options[] = t('List of ' . $formname);
//Populate array with url / name
while ($term = db_fetch_object($vocabulary)) {
$tmpPath = drupal_get_path_alias('taxonomy/term/'.$term->tid);
$options[$GLOBALS['base_path'].$tmpPath] = $term->name;
}
//Build dropdown select
//If we try to build OnChange directly it gets mangled, so put in array to confuse the forms api
$form['category'] = array(
'#type' => 'select',
'#name' => $formname,
'#id' => $formname,
'#title' => '',
'#default_value' => '',
'#options' => $options,
'#description' => '',
'#multiple' => $multiple = FALSE,
'#required' => $required = FALSE,
'#attributes' => array('onChange' => "top.location.href=document.getElementById('$formname').options[document.getElementById('$formname').selectedIndex].value"),
);
return $form;
}
?>
