Consistant Next Button

inqbus · Sep 26, 2002

Hi all,

I found out reading and writing JavaScripts, are a little/lot different. So if there is no sample code, im lost (at the moment anyway).

I want a "Next" button that will take me to the next page in MyTour. I have a list of pages:
MyTour1.htm
MyTour2.htm
MyTour3.htm

Is it possible for the "Next" button in MyTour1.htm to goto MyTour2.htm and so on, without hard coding it.

Thanks for anything and everything...

One option:
Use a global variable nextpage and set in your pages accordingly. Script will remain the same.
<html>
<head>
<title> 1 </title>
<script language="JavaScript">
nextpage = 2
function mynext(){
strNextpage = "MyTour" + nextpage + ".htm";
document.location = strNextpage;
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
1 content<br>
<a href="javascript:mynext()">Next</a>
</body>
</html>

Another option will be if you use external js file with array of your pages and similar function.
