Q: Thnx, it works now, just one more question :-)

I use frames on my website, the target frame name is main.
But when i put main as target in the simple javascript drop down menu, it loads as a new windows, do you know what i'm doing wrong?

A: You can set target parameter for all items:
  var itemTarget="main";

Where main - is the name of the frame where you want to open the link.

or for each item individually:
["Home","testlink.html", "", "", "", "main", "", "", "", "", "", ],



Q: I want to use
function dtreet_ext_userRightClick(itemID) {

alert(itemID[0]); ???

return false;
}

But how do I refer to tmenuItems array using itemID in the javascript?
For example, if I want to pop a link text, should I use alert(itemID[0]))?
It doesn't work.
Please let me know how I refer to the menu.

A: You should use the following function to get item's info:

dtreet_ext_getItemParams (0, itemID);

For example:

<script type="text/javascript">

function dtreet_ext_userRightClick(itemID)
{   var link = [];
link = dtreet_ext_getItemParams (0, itemID);
//Returns item parameters in the array:
// [item_id, index_within_submenu, parentID, level, has_child, child_count, expanded, text, link, target, tip, align, icons, hidden, disabled, visible]

alert(link[7]);


return false;
}
</script>




Q: Is there a way to highlight the selected item in the dhtml treemenu of the current page when the link target is _self?
Or pass in the selected item to the new page?

A: You can set a pressed item using Javascript API:

function dtreet_ext_setPressedItem (menuInd, itemID)

Please, see here:
http://deluxe-tree.com/functions-info.html

You can also set
  var tsaveState = 1;

More info you can find
http://deluxe-tree.com/data-samples/tree-menuxp-save-state.htm

To expand specific items you should use API function
function dtreet_ext_expandItem (itemID, expand)


Q: I need to use an iframe within the popup window.
Is there any way I can close the dhtml window from the page loaded within the iframe?


A: You can close the popup using the following function:

document.getElementById('win').hide();

Unfortunately it won't work if you use iframe as window content.
You open another page in the popup (in Iframe) so you cannot access
document.getElementById('win').hide();
element which is situated on the first page.

When you use text or object_id as window content the content of the popup will be situated
on the same page so you can access document.getElementById('win') element and hide it.

There is a workaround.
Use text as content type and add the following code inside popup:

<a onclick="document.getElementById('win').hide();">...</a><iframe></iframe>

Your link will work in that case.
