Q: Is it possible set a menu item to pressed when a page is loaded when you have multiple drop down menus on the page?
I have 2 menus side by side and I was able to set the pressed item with the JavaScript API as described in your FAQs but when I try to show an item as pressed in a second menu on the same page, the corresponding item in the first menu shows as pressed. Is there a different function that I can use for this or a way to reset the menu ID in the second menu to start from where the first menu left off so I can use the same function?
A: See the first parameter in
dm_ext_setPressedItem (menuInd, submenuInd, itemInd, recursion)
function is index of the menu.
So, if you use several menus on the one page you should use differentmenuInd parameter.
For example you have:
<script type="text/javascript" src="menu/data1.js"></script> //menuInd=0
...
<script type="text/javascript" src="menu/data2.js"></script> //menuInd=1
...
<script type="text/javascript" src="menu/data3.js"></script> //menuInd=2
...
<script type="text/javascript" src="menu/data4.js"></script> //menuInd=3
So, for the second menu you should write:
dm_ext_setPressedItem (1, 2, 5)
