Treemenu: when is "soon" ?

jm · Post by jm » Mon Aug 02, 2004 10:17 pm

got a demo running at http://www.cruisesport.com/about/

Figured I'll start on the site structure anyway - though hit a very odd problem.

If u visit the page - click on the nav button and the image disappears !
What's more peculiar is that it works fine offline !

I guess this is something to do with licensing of mmenudom.js and mmenuns4.js ?

If so can you let me know what's option I should buy ?

Cheers

I can't answer that. Not sure how the two scripts interact as far as the licensing is concerned (or if they even do as yet). Andy will have to take this one.

hi

just tried it out on our licensed site and it has the same problem - so it's nothing to do with licensed versions or not.

It's something to do with being online or offline !

Guess I'm not fully understanding the problem. Click on any main menu link (by the red square) and what image goes away? The red square?

Hi john

It's something to do with using an image as the nav hyperlink
If you take a look at http://www.cruisesport.com/about/index.htm
The about nav image isn't hyperlinked - so it works correctly - sub menu is displayed correctly (contacts in the submenu is hyperlinked to the iframe - and that works fine)

If you then click on the News navbutton (which is hyperlinked) - the news nav button disappears ?

I did find that I had to leave in the text= so I stuck in a "." - but without that the script fails to produce the menu ?

So perhaps I've missed removing another line of script somewhere ?

aI("image=../images/menu/about.gif;text=.;showmenu=About;type=tree;url=#");
aI("image=../images/menu/news.gif;text=eee;showmenu=News;type=tree;url=javascript:openIFrame('datamain','../news/main.htm');");

here's the link for the full collapse_data.js file http://www.cruisesport.com/menu/collaps ... se_data.js

does that make sense ?

(I've had to ditch the beta - need to get this new site up and running - so the online example is going offline).

Still like to understand why this is happening ?

Still plenty to do but it's getting there

I may have missed this but did not see this in reading this thread.

Are the collapsible and treemenu just additional styles of the core Milonic Menu or separate licensed products?

They are both looking great Andy. Can you give us some idea of what you have left that needs to be completed (not asking timeframe) before you would recommend it to be used on a productions site.

Licensing has not been decided yet. It's more likely to be a separate product with another license number though.

Although it takes it's core from the menu, the menu code was originally devloped to provide this kind of thing. Once we have a finished product (should be within a week or 3) I should have a better idea of how things will pan out.

Cheers

Unfortunately, 5.38 refuses to open the tree when clicked. Anybody else? Had to go back to 5.37a.

Let me know how it goes after upgrading the treemenu.js file.

Already discussed. I "neglected" to update that file (but a certain person did not specifically say that file had been updated, either

).

Anyway, working fine now, including singleMasterMenu.

Blame it on too many shots at the dentist...

How are you guys implementing the menu with regard to positioning with your content pages?

Post by **John** » Mon Aug 09, 2004 3:50 pm

Same ol' Stuff, Andy - relative in a td.

hi chaps - any closer to a final release ?

Post by **John** » Thu Aug 12, 2004 5:01 pm

Not that I've heard, but the latest combo is running here with no errors (treemenu 0.3 and 5.40).

Just wanted to ask when the collaps and tree menu will be done (out of beta)?

Andy said 1-3 weeks thats 6 months ago ?!?!?!

Post by **John** » Tue Dec 07, 2004 2:40 pm

The tree menu is currently at v1.12 and running very nicely. Note that you will need your regular menu code up to at least v5.62 for this tree version.

Smyken · Post by **Smyken** » Tue Dec 07, 2004 3:21 pm

ok its working but there are several things that are not working like they should and thats:

1.
when you click on a main menu that dont have a child then this menu stays colored all the time (untill you click on it again).

2.
when you are in a child menu and directly click on a Main menu without a child that menu isn't activated untill you click on it again.
(to make it work you need to turn of (Singlemastermenu) but then the user can open all the menus at same time.

Is this something you team members are currently working on ?

Also while Im at it :

Is there any example on how to use the treemenu that is populated with PHP from MYSQL ?

My company is currently developing a new webshop system that will be sold in Europe and we are looking for a Collapsable menu that can be populated with PHP/MYSQL and the Milonic one is really promising but with the bugs and no easy way to implement it together with PHP/MYSQL leavs us still looking for other menu options.

Post by **John** » Tue Dec 07, 2004 3:33 pm

Got a URL we can look at?

Smyken · Post by **Smyken** » Tue Dec 07, 2004 4:02 pm

You can see the webshop at http://webshop.componics.com

but the design will be dramatically changed to fit more computershopping look and we need a good collapsable menu to go at the left of the screen and that is populated by with PHP by MYSQL.
Milonic is really the only one that qualify to do the job so far after looking fo a menu for over a week so I really hope something could be worked out !

I guess that was the link you wanted ? or was it the link for the treemenu of yours that you can find at your own site at:

http://milonic.com/treemenu/collapse/

once again I really hope that something could be worked out.
