Q: I made my own multi-users Content Management System and I'm using deluxe menu developer license to create my menu into this application.
One dhtml menu vertical constantly need to be reload to see new page created/modified or deleted by other logged users. So I just take out your code for Ajax sample to fill dynamically this submenu.
There is my .js file fort my menu : mnu_admin.zip (You'll need to extract the .js file)
In this file I'm using the same way it goe's into your example with Ajax on line : [172] ["Contenu pages","", "", "", "Gйrer les pages du site", "", "0", "0", "modules/menu/data-ajax3.js", ],
There is my : data-ajax3.js (periodically change)
var menuItems = [
["|Services", "contenu_pages_a.php?id=HMglcKWvAQklxw4uM3qHWa9pFhY432dZNIXOIlYNJO4%3D", "", "", "Services", "", "", "", ""],

Another user just delete differents pages so the data_ajax3.js change to this (example) :
var menuItems = [
["|Services","contenu_pages_a.php?id=HMglcKWvAQklxw4uM3qHWa9pFhY432dZNIXOIlYNJO4%3D", "","", "Services", "", "", "", ""],

Trouble :
When I go over "Contenu pages" menu, the submenu won't reload and still show me the new submenu with upper content (With "Qui sommes-nous"). I need to completely refresh the page and sometime to delete browser CACHE.
What I want to do :
I want to get submenu completely reload everytime I pass over "Contenu pages" dhtml menu vertical with the mouse.
Tested Browser :
IE6 and FF3
A: Try to set the following parameter to reload submenus on recall:
var ajaxReload=1;
Q: I was trying out the Vista samples and was able to change the sub-item font size but not the cascade menu javascript item(s) font size. Is this by design?
A: You should change font for the main items in the Individual Styles.
var itemStyles = [
["itemWidth=92px","itemBorderWidth=0","fontStyle=normal 11pxTahoma","fontColor=#FFFFFF,#FFFFFF","itemBackImage=data-vista-03.files/btn_magentablack.gif,data-vista-03.files/btn_magenta.gif"],
];
Try that.
Q: Could you please help me with coding of the submenu box in your java script dropdown menu?
I hope you can see images I've included in this email.
I want to put a large block of text in the submenu.
Now I can do it like the code shown here and it wraps and works OK.
["Text display","", "", "", "", "", "0", "0", "", ],
["|Text Line 1 Text Line 1Text Line 1Text Line 1<br>text Line 2text Line 2text Line 2text Line 2<br>Text line 3Text line 3Text line 3Text line 3<br>text line 4text line 4text line 4text line 4text line 4", "", "", "", "", "", "", "0"],
];
The problem is that if I want a large amount of text, the line of code with text in it will be 10 miles long. Please note the line of code above isn't broken in practice. The email wraps it.
Is there any way to break the code into lines instead of one very long line?
For example:
["Text display","", "", "", "", "", "0", "0", "", ],
["|Text Line 1 Text Line 1Text Line 1Text Line 1<br>
Line 2text Line 2text Line 2text Line 2<br>
Text line 3Text line 3Text line 3Text line 3<br>
text line 4text line 4text line 4text line 4text line 4", "", "", "", "", "", "", "0"],
];
No matter what way I try It won't work
Is there a way?
A: The only way to do that is
["|Text Line 1 Text Line 1Text Line 1Text Line 1<br>"+
"Line 2text Line 2text Line 2text Line 2<br>"+
"Text line 3Text line 3Text line 3Text line 3<br>"+
"text line 4text line 4text line 4text line 4text line 4", "", "", "", "", "", "", "0"],
];
Q: I'm trying out your menus, and I seem to have a problem with changing the title of a menu item. If the text is something like "Create a New Event" the entire menu spreads out and the rollover image starts replicating itself behind it, instead fo stretching with the text. So I see 1 /2 rollover images for that top level item, instead of just the one, width it's width spread out to accomodate the extra text.
I've tried the Styles bit, but that doesn't seem to fix the rollover image any...
Any pointers ?
A: You can try to set the exact width for each menu item using IndividualItem Styles.
You should use Individual Item Styles.
For example:
var itemStyles = [
["itemWidth=120","itemBorderWidth=1","itemBorderStyle=solid,solid"], //style0
["itemWidth=100","itemBorderWidth=1","itemBorderStyle=solid,solid"], //style1
["itemWidth=130","itemBorderWidth=1","itemBorderStyle=solid,solid"], //style2
["itemWidth=150","itemBorderWidth=1","itemBorderStyle=solid,solid"], //style3
];
["Home","testlink.htm"],
["Samples","testlink.htm"],
["|Group 1","", , , , , "0", , , ],
["|Group 2","", , , , , "1", , , ],
["|Group 3","", , , , , "2", , , ],
...
[" More Samples","testlink.htm"],
["|Group 1","", , , , , "3", , , ],
["|Group 2","", , , , , "1", , , ],
Where "0", "1", "2", "3" - style number in itemStyles.
You also should check the width of your rollover image. It should bethe same width as your items.
You can also use
tags in the item text, for example:
var menuItems = [
["line 1
line 2"],
];
Or you can set this parameter:
var noWrap=0;
Try that.
