Causes the object to be displayed in the function
bar, not in the normal hierarchy.
If several function's are located on the same page,
they have to be declared as anchors and entered
separately into the sitemap. Allowed values:
* contact (symbol: letter/telephone.) * info (smbol:
i): Central repository for all
"background" information about the site,
especially legal information like imprint, terms and
conditions, privacy policy, etc.) * search (symbol:
magnifying glass): If the user clicks on this icon,
the search page (i.e. the page containing the search
form) is loaded. If you add at least one of the
following three attributes, a text field will pop up
instead, allowing the user to type in their search
phrase under the magnifying glass right away: o
method. Allowed values: get (=default), post o
variable: The name of the variable to be handed over
to your search script. Allowed values: any string.
Default: q o constant: Any additional information
you want to be handed over to your search script.
Allowed values: any string. Example: If you declare
this in your sitemap: <item
function="search"
url="search.php"
variable="searchfor"
constant="&boolean=AND" /> and the
user enters "africa", the following URL is
opened:
http://www.yourBaseURL.com/search.php?searchfor=africa&boolean=AND
Each of these functions may appear several times in
the sitemap (e.g. if the site has multiple contact
pages). In this case a sub-menu pops up (containing
the name-attributes of the <item>'s) when the
user clicks. We indicate this by showing the usual
triangle symbol to the right of the icon
