Advanced: Creating Custom Navigation for the Detail Region

In this tutorial we will show you how to create custom navigation for the detail region.

*You can also check out the video.

How to do it

  1. We inserted a repeat region on our page and we also created a detail region that shows detailed information for each of the feed entries. We are going to insert previous and next buttons that will change the info in the detail region.  For out tutorial we use Bootstrap Pager element.

NOTE: You can use any Button or Text Links instead of Bootstrap Pager element

  1. In the data bindings tab (1), select the next button (2) and click add behavior (3).



  1. Select the DMXzone menu item (1) and control HTML5 Data Bindings menu item (2).

  1. In the control HTML5 Data Bindings window, choose next record item and click OK.


  1. We do the same for the previous button but in the control HTML5 Data Bindings window we select the previous record.

  1. Click the Live View button in order to preview the results. That's how you can create custom navigation for the detail region.

Hi .. I'm trying to grab data from https://www.reverbnation.com/rss/artist_shows_rss/stevekirchuk which is my show rss feed and I am getting an error in HTML 5 Bindings but when I test the feed it displays correctly ... I can also save the feed as an csv .. can I use that as a local file data source in HTML 5 Bindings? Thanks !

Hello Steve, HTML5 Data Bindings requires a JSON data source, it does not work with RSS feeds.
