Recent Questions Tree Menu Javascript Xp
Q: I downloaded the trial version, so I’m doing some testing....
I can’t highlight the selected dhtml pop up menu item of the current page. The var ttoggleMode is enabled and
tpressedFontColor = "#AA0000
This is caused by the trial version?
A: Please, check the following parameter
var pressedItem=-2;
This parameter sets an index of an item that will be highlighted by default.
-2 - the toggle mode is disabled;-1 - the toggle mode is enabled, bu
t no items highlighted by default;
0,1,2,3,... - index of highlighted item in a top-menu.
The menu has only two states normal and mouseover. We'll try to add the pressed state in the future.
You can set a pressed item using Javascript API:
function dm_ext_setPressedItem (menuInd, submenuInd, itemInd, recursion)
Sets a current pressed item.
menuInd - index of a menu on a page, >= 0.
submenuInd - index of a submenu, >= 0.
itemInd - index of an item, >=0.
recursion = true/false - highlight parent items.
But notice, to use dm_ext_setPressedItem() you should know ID of selected item and subitem.
You can't get this ID after you reload your page. That is why you should write your own code on PHP.
You can also set the correct
var pressedItem=1;
parameter on each html page.
Q: We are looking for how we have to do for the previously clicked item in the dynamic tree menu
remains highlighted to inform user what is his current page.
It is possible to achieve this behavior with your product?
A: You should use API functions in that case
function dtreet_ext_expandItem (itemID, expand)
function dtreet_ext_setPressedItem (menuInd, itemID)
See more info about API functions:

Q: Do you have documentation for the paramaters for the apycom DHTML menu.

A: You can find more info about menu parameters here:
http://www.dhtml-menu.com/menu/dhtml-sliding-menu-items-info.html

Q: A brief one on dynamic menu in the perspective of bilinguism
I understood from the tuner that a menu can be made dynamic (although it is somewhat minimally documented ;-))
Leaving alone all the beautiful sophisticated and complex mechanic of it
Say I have my main menu that says :
var dynamic=1; (that's all I got from the doc ..)
And then
var menuItems = [
["Choice 1 ","page1.php", "", "", "Choice 1",", "_self", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["Choice 2","page2.php", "", "", "Choice 2", "_self", "", "", "", "", "", ],
];
Minimalist ? ;-) right ?
1/ first I'm not too sure about what exactly in order are these 11 parameters although I'm fine with the only 4 I have here
2/ if I would want to change on the fly menu javascript dropdown page on a PHP parameter Page1.php?lang=French (I perfectly master how to capture the PHP value)
So that My menu becomes on the fly
["Choix 1 ","page1.php", "", "", "Choix 1",", "_self", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["Choix 2","page2.php", "", "", "Choix 2", "_self", "", "", "", "", "", ],
Thanks in advance if you can shed some light on this
PS : And although I used hardly 1% of deluxe capability my first customer is very happy about it..

To change the menu items on the fly you can use API functions
function dm_ext_changeItem (menuInd, submenuInd, itemInd, iParams)
function dm_ext_addItem (menuInd, submenuInd, iParams)
function dm_ext_changeItemVisibility (menuInd, submenuInd, itemInd, visibility)
