CONTEST ENDED

What I'm looking for is relatively straight forward. I've done a fair few contests on here before so please have faith in me!

My site http://www.uktvindex.co.uk is a directory of programs. An example of a program page can be seen at: http://www.uktvindex.co.uk/progs/BadGirls/

My problem is that each program has different sections these are: (1) Description, (2) Episode List/Guide (3) Image Gallery (4) Links (5) Shop (6) Forum (7) Cast & Crew

Currently the links to these sections are dotted around. I would like a new graphical navigation on each program page linking to each section. I was thinking of having this menu, just below the title bar in each programe page. An example of where I mean can be seen at: http://www.brittv.co.uk/images/progs.gif
(red arrows)
Although if you can suggest another place on the program pages I'm open to suggestions.

In my minds eye I was thinking of a series of different coloured, bright buttons for each link, perhaps with a small icon on the button relevant to what it is (i.e a chain for links etc).

IMPORTANT: Not all program pages have every section yet, so perhaps shaded/greyed links when that section isnt avialable? I can do the coding, just need the graphics.

The graphics can be any format, JPG/GIF Rollover images or FLASH if you want. I'm open to suggestions and any questions please pm me.

The contest will close when I find a suitable entry. After I get a lot of entries I may close the contest. But I will give a significant amount of warning before closing and I'll make sure everyone has their entry in. If you are working on an entry please post.

If your good I'll have more work for you!

Have you considered drop down menus. I am a big fan of suckerfish drop downs. You can is a php include tag on your template which would allow you to create a menu.inc that imports to all of your pages. The beauty of this is, you can edit all of your page menus by just editing the menu.inc script.

Want something a big more fancy than a drop down menu. All the pages run through the same template so editing is not a problem.

Wasn't planning on the links having a grey background. But if thats what your rekon looks best, go for it.

All part of the challenge!

It doesnt have to be there, thats just a suggestion. I just need some way of linking to all the sections. the method you deceide will be at the top of every page of each section so people can browse between them.

I need some feedback/suggestions. I made one button active/not active.
Will those section remain there?Left column and right column>?Rates , player window...
And yes, i can suggest a java slide in from left navigation system, but do you have the skill to implement?Because i can do only flash and graphics, not a programmer

Thanks for your entry.

I can programme the code in php, no problem. Maybe you could have buttons like the description one, which perhaps scroll so you can fit all the buttons in? Flash sounds good or Java.

The collums on the left and the right will stay there. But you could create a new title bar, which goes all the way accross the top and includes all the tite details, the image of the programme and the buttons? by just moving the details box and the ratings box below it.

Another problem - what about the links?I decided to go with flash, so i need to know what link for each button.I won`t go with a full menu but with individual buttons because you need disabled buttons too, right?
