Modify title linked

I am running a non-link directory for organizations (Title) and programs (Programs). Is there a way to modify the title linked bar. I would like to use an if statement for the title tag like (if program)(Program)(else)(Title)(endif). I use this statement almost everywhere else, but I can not find where to modify the title linked bar.

The title_linked is hard coded into the core links code. You'll need to use a global - there are some other discussions about using globals to modify title_linked - here's one: http://www.gossamer-threads.com/...i?post=225735#225735

Mmm...give this a go. Its a modified version of a global that Alex wrote for me a while ago :)

Code:
sub { 
      my $vars = shift; 
      my $title = $vars->{Title}; 
      my $programs = $vars->{Programs}; 
      my $title_linked = $vars->{title_linked}; 

   if ($title) {  
      $title_linked = "<a href=http://www.site.com>Home</a> &gt; $title "; 
   } else { 
      $title_linked = "<a href=http://www.site.com>Home</a> &gt; $programs "; 
   } 

   return $title_linked;    

}

Hope that helps Smile

I want the title_linked url's to stay the same as the default, just the text to change.

Code:


Example (I am using the title tag to hold the organization name)  

Home | Category | Subcategory | Program or Title (Organization)

<%if Program%><%<a href=What is the default title link - What to put here?>Program</a> 
<%else%> 
<a href=What is the default title link - Same as above.><%Title</a><%endif%>

I think that the global will work I am just not sure of the syntax.
