Hi all,

I have a menu loop and im struggling to get a function I need to run within it.

I have the functions on my page.php file so it should be accessed by all pages. Calling the function is ok in the nav include outside the menu loop but not inside.

Basiclly im trying to show a share price value from an XML file inside a dropdown nav. Any ideas??

<ul class="nav_pri">
<% loop Menu(1) %>
<li class="$LinkingMode">
code
<% if Children %>
code
<% if $MenuTitle="Investors" %>
access function from page.php $sahre_price
<% else %>
show something else
<% end_if %>
code
<% end_if %>
code
<% end_loop %>
</ul>

I have the functions on my page.php file so it should be accessed by all pages. Calling the function is ok in the nav include outside the menu loop but not inside.

Make sure the function is inside the Page class part of the file. SilverStripe won't pick up anything outside of the page class in this context, and if it's in the controller class in that file you'll only see it on the top level.

Thanks Willr,

Adding this seems to have caused an issue with the site, instead of looking for 'pageType_live' in query strings it's now using 'pageType' only.

This caused some large issues with our server and crashed everything.

Any ideas?

This sounds like more an issue with what your code does rather than where. Post it here and people may be able to suggest fixes.
