Help: How to link to an engine from menu bar.

Hello I want to link to a hotel engine from the menu bar and I am being told that it is not possible by the person who is suppose to do it. I would think that it can be done and wonder if some can tell me how.

This is my website: Travelers Record - Your Travel Guide Online and I want to where Hotel is now, eliminate the drop down menu and just leave the link to say Hotels and when the end user clicks on Hotels be taken to the engine.

You can see the engine here: Jetstar US and the end user can get to it from the home page of the website by clicking Hotels here:Cheap flights | Jetstar

This is what the person who I asked to delete the drop down menu and just leave the link to say Hotels and make that link Hotels take visitors to the hotel engine home page:

"1. Hotel search engine cannot be placed as a link in the menu because that is dynamically generated page from agoda's search box (which is java scrpit widget)"

Question: How can the hotel engine be linked to from the menu bar? If I am not mistaken, it is what Jetstar has done so it should be feasable.

Thank you for your assistance.

    Well, I tried to visit your site, but my AVG immediately blocked a potential trojan horse install. But, sure, what you want can easily be done. If it's a wordpress site, just use custom menus.

      What?!? Could someone have installed a virus in the database?

      How can a Trojan Horse be in the website?

      How can I verify that indeed there is a Trojan Horse?

      I do not get any warnings when I go to the site.

      If there is a Trojan Horse, how can I get rid of it?

      Many people are going to this website and they do not get a warning.

      Why would AVG detect that? Actually, one other person said the same to me, he lives in Kenya. I don't know if he is using AVG. No one else is getting that warning. What do you advice?


      Thank you.

        The hosting company just ran a virus scan on the website and found no viruses. They are looking into why AVG gives that warning.

    Avast is giving the same Trojan horse blocked alert. I'm in the US.

      Thank you Rob Whisonant for that information. Could you possibly tell me what it is saying so I can give the information to the hosting company?

      Thank you very much.

        Thank you both. I ran a virus scan on the cpanel and no virus was found. The hosting company is looking into the problem.

        Any advice on why this is happening and why no virus is detected thru the cpanel scan will be most welcomed and appreciated.

            Michael71, the report result is that it is clean with a score of 0/37. I don't understand much else. I don't understand why it says that the url content could not be retrieved...


            Normalized URL: Travelers Record - Your Travel Guide Online
            Detection ratio: 0 / 37
            Analysis date: 2013-04-07 21:24:51 UTC ( 22 hours, 5 minutes ago )
            File scan: The URL response content could not be retrieved or it is some text format (HTML, XML, CSV, TXT, etc.), hence, it was not enqueued for antivirus scanning.

            Help. I don't know why people are getting that warning. How can I get rid of it? Thank you for your assistance.

              The hosting company just got back to me:

              "Thank you for your update. I am not getting any warning or error message on the URL: Travelers Record - Your Travel Guide Online. Could you please recheck it. It may be your local machine blocking it.

              Refer the screen shot: Screenshot by Lightshot

              Feel free to get back to us if you need any further assistance."

              They have also run a virus scan and the scanner detects no virus. I also ran I virus scan from the cpanel and - no virus.


              Why would people get a warning?

        Thank you very much.
        Sorry but I would not feel safe going back to the site to check the exact warning. What you may want to do is install AVG and Avast on your computer and test it yourself.
