Build right-click menus for your site. For this purpose you should appoint a peculiar method for the object you want. The current X,Y of the mouse pointer or your own ones can be used for the context menu.
Design menus absolutely based on CSS (Cascading Style Sheets). It is possible to apply the personal CSS styles for every elements of the menu.
When the submenu is bigger than the visible page area, the size of submenu will be automatically decreased. To view all the submenu items you do not need to use scrollbars or something like that - just put your mouse to the bottom of a submenu and it will be automagically scrolled! You can also define width and height for each submenu.
You may generate a menu from a database or XML using any server-side script, e.g., PHP, ASP, VB, etc. However, these scripts don't work inside of Javascript .js files, so, you should move parameters of a menu from a .js file into an html-page, e.g.:
<!-- Deluxe Menu --> <noscript><a href="http://deluxe-menu.com">Javascript Menu by Deluxe-Menu.com</a></noscript> <script type="text/javascript"> var dmWorkPath = "menudir/";</script> <script type="text/javascript" src="menudir/dmenu.js"></script> <!-- (c) 2006, http://deluxe-menu.com -->
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript1.2"> // and describe parameters of a menu var parameter1=value1; var parameter2=value2; etc.
var menuItems = [ // here you generate items using server-side scripts (php, asp, vb, etc.) ]; </script>
The example of the menu working with PHP/MYSQL you can find here: http://deluxe-menu.com/rq-loading-bar-MySQL-support.html
