Q: Is it possible via code customization to remove the border only forthe top level of js dropdown menu?
A: You can use Individual Item Style in that case.
You should create Individual Style, for example:
var itemStyles = [
["itemBorderStyle=none,none"], // style 0
];
And assign it for top items:
var menuItems = [
["Home","testlink.html", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", "", "", ], // assign style 0
["Product Info","", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", "", "", ], // assign style 0
["|Features","testlink.html", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],

["Contact Us","testlink.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", "", "", ], // assign style 0
];

Q: At the very beginning of each javascript close menu item (exception for top level item using "XP-Style") there is always a small gap of 2px width.
Firebug show me this small piece of code :
***********************************
<td id="" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">
<img id="" width="2" height="1" border="0" style="display:
block;" src="images/blank.gif"/>
</td>
***********************************
Is there a way to avoid this ?
A: You should set the following parameter in that case:
var tXPBorderWidth=0;
Q: I have small problems with your javascript menu system.
#1. I am creating a multi-level menu, am I limited to a gird format or can every item have a variable column width?
#2. With submenus, I want to have the submenu be the same width as the parent cell, is there a simple command for this, or do I have to guess the column widths until it fits correctly?
#3. In those same submenus, I have items that are longer than the parent, is there a word wrap or a way to define a break, rather than having the scroll feature?
A: 1) You should use Individual Item Styles.
For example:
var itemStyles = [
["itemWidth=120","itemBorderWidth=1","itemBorderStyle=solid,solid","itemBackColor=#ACF88B,#ACF88B","itemBorderColor=#329309,#329309"], //style0
["itemWidth=100","itemBorderWidth=1","itemBorderStyle=solid,solid","itemBackColor=#FFFFFF,#FFFFFF","itemBorderColor=#1B92E9,#1B92E9"], //style1
["itemWidth=130","itemBorderWidth=1","itemBorderStyle=solid,solid","itemBackColor=#FF9684,#FF9684","itemBorderColor=#EC7575,#EC7575"], //style2
["itemWidth=150","itemBorderWidth=1","itemBorderStyle=solid,solid","itemBackColor=#84F9FF,#84F9FF","itemBorderColor=#00B8C1,#00B8C1"], //style3
];
var menuStyles = [
["smColumns=2"], //style0
];
["Home","testlink.htm"],
["Samples","testlink.htm"],
["|Group 1","", , , , , "0", , , ],
["|Group 2","", , , , , "1", , , ],
["|Group 3","", , , , , "2", , , ],
...
[" More Samples","testlink.htm"],
["|Group 1","", , , , , "3", "0", , ],
["|Group 2","", , , , , "1", , , ],
Where "0", "1", "2", "3" - style number in itemStyles.
2) You can also use Individual Item Styles.
var itemStyles = [
["itemWidth=120px"],
];
var menuStyles = [
["smWidth=120px"],
];
["Product Info","", "default.files/icon1.gif", "default.files/icon1o.gif", , , "0", , , ], // itemStyles
["|Features","testlink.html", "default.files/icon2.gif", "default.files/icon2o.gif", , , , "0", , ],
["|Installation","", "default.files/icon2.gif", "default.files/icon2o.gif", , , , , , ], // menuStyles
3) Try to set this parameter:
var noWrap=0;
Q: I have just 2 more questions.
1. Can the 3rd level be configured to be a javascript vertical menu?
2. Can your menu be configured per the following spec? Once you click on a 3rd level option that level would disappear & the 1st & 2nd level would be breadcrumbed (stay visible to show you where you are).
A: 1) Yes you can do it. Use smOrientation parameter in IndividualSubmenu Styles:
var menuStyles = [
["smOrientation=0"], //id=0
];
Assign it to the first item in third submenu:
["Home","testlink.html", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["Product Info","", "default.files/icon1.gif", "default.files/icon1o.gif", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["|Features","testlink.html", "default.files/icon2.gif", "default.files/icon2o.gif", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["|Installation","", "default.files/icon2.gif", "default.files/icon2o.gif", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["||Description of Files","testlink.html", "default.files/icon6.gif", "default.files/icon6o.gif", "", "", "", "0", "", "", "", ],
2) No, it is not possible now. Your 3rd level submenu will be visible too.
