Q: Is there any way to call a javascript function on mouseover from a menu item?
A: You can use your own javascript functions in the menu items.
You should paste "javascript:some_function()" into item's link field, for example:
var menuItems = [
["text", "javascript:your_function(...)", ...]
];
var menuItems = [
["item text", "javascript:alert('Hello World')", , , , ,]
];
Unfortunately, you can't assign onmouseover/onClick event to each item. However, you can achieve this by using standard html objects within items, for example:
var menuitems = [
["<div onMouseover='your_code_here'>item text</div>", "index.html"]
];
Q: I was wondering if there is a way to disable links in the dhtml context menu on a page.
A: To disable your menu items you should set the following parameter to disable all items:
var itemTarget="_";
Or you can disable items individually.
["Home","testlink.html", "", "", "", "_", "", "", "", "", "", ], //disabled
["Product Info","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["|Features","testlink.html", "", "", "", "_", "", "", "", "", "", ], //disabled
["|Installation","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
You can also use function dm_ext_changeItem (menuInd, submenuInd, itemInd, iParams)
function to disable items on-the-fly, for example:
dm_ext_changeItem (0, 2, 3, ["", "", "", "", "", "_", "", "", ""]);

Q: I have a top horizontal menu with one level sub-menus.
I am using images for the rollover (on & off). I don’t need the generated text on the main menu, only on the submenus.
??? How do I eliminate the text and only have roll-overs?
A: You should delete item's text:
["","testlink.html", "image.gif", "imageo.gif", "", "", "", "", "", ],
