To change the labels of navigation links

The section of the Top.htm file that begins <script language="javascript"> contains information about the links that display in a task list.

Caution! Create a backup of your existing files before making any changes to the iMIS desktop.

  1. Open Windows Explorer and locate the framework\HiRes\Main folder in your iMIS directory.
  2. Open the Top.htm file in an HTML editor or in Windows Notepad.

    Note: If you edit the file in FrontPage, you will have to select the HTML tab at the bottom of the window.

  3. Scroll down to the part of the file that resembles the following:
    var tablestart='<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0"><tr><td>';
    var sep='<span class="separator"></span>';
    
    
    var homelink='<span id="asihomelink" onmouseout="topunframe(\'asihomelink\'); "
    	onmouseover="topframe(\'asihomelink\'); " onclick="CheckNavState();
    	TopActivate(\'asihomelink\'); LoadHomePage(); SetLeftNavLoc(\'lefthome.htm\'); " class="navlinktop">Home</span>';
    var custlink='<span id="asimemlink" onmouseout="topunframe(\'asimemlink\');"
    	onmouseover="topframe(\'asimemlink\');" onclick="TopActivate(\'asimemlink\');
    	CheckNavState();SetLeftNavLoc(\'../Customers/LeftCust-Main.htm\');"
    	class="navlinktop">Customers</span>';
  4. From within the list, find the line with the menu item you want to change. Then, scroll to the far right and change the word that shows onscreen, substituting whatever you want. For example, in the sample in the previous step, the custlink is set to show onscreen as Customers. To change Customers to Contacts you would simply replace Customers with Contacts.
  5. Save the file.
