Answer Found!

Hi folks ...

Just for closure ... Andy pointed me to the solution on this one. I was using the mouseover on an image to trigger the sub-menus, and was using the code

popup('menuName')

and not

popup('menuName', 'imgName')

Evidently, this matters: that is, by telling Milonic exactly what the ...

Still Funky

Thanks, Innkeeper!

Unfortunately, that doesn't resolve the problem: the big issue is why it jumps around depending on whether you refresh or resize the window. Related, I would assume, is the fact that the measurement in pixels is only accureate on resize, not on reset.

Anyone have other ideas ...

Center Offset Doing Funky, Funky Things

Hi folks!

Check out http://www.hipbrick.com/ .

Mouse-Over PRODUCTS.

The menu should appear directly under the header. It doesn't for me. It appears about 30 px to the right. Until I resize the browser window, when it appears, lined up perfectly. Until I refresh, when it appears to the right ...

Yes.

Use a combination of two properties:

screenposition="center";
left="offset=-50";

That would make the menu alwas appear 50 px to the left of center.

That said, see my post above for problems with this ...

Milonic also uses popup() as the name of one of it's functions.

Rename your function to popme or newwin or whatever, and it should work.

The site in question is live now.

Go to http://www.hipbrick.com/

and click on any of the "Feature" buttons to see where the issue is: I want those tooltips ( ;) ) to appear and close with clicks.

No, not really ...

All I want is for the menu to appear on click, then close again on click.

Click on the image, see the menu. Click anywhere else on the page, bye-bye menu.

The documentation on keepalive makes it sound like this should do it, but I haven't had any luck with it.

The short answer is YES .

You can script the creation of menus using anything from JavaScript to Cold Fusion to ASP to PHP. The key is to get the syntax correct.

Looking quickly at your code, there is no need for the creation of an additional function--you should use the popup() function to ...

Keepalive v. Closeonclick

I want to use the menu to create, essentially, call-outs. The idea is that, when a user clicks on a graphic, a small explanatory box appears. No problems so far.

I would like the box to remain visible until the user clicks anywhere on the page, and then disappear. So far, no luck: the box appears ...

However, I do this by code in the file that builds the arrays--you can parse it there, and match up, say, menuIDs, then use something like (using old ASP syntax) this within the aI() call.

There are now three critical files required for the menus to operate that you should not touch:

milonic_src.js
mmenudom.js
mmenus4.js

the file you edit can be called whatever you want it to be--it just has to be included before the others.

See the examples on the site for syntax of the new menus ...

Stilll Having Offset Problems with PopUp('menu', 1)

Hey there ...

This is still a big issue here. The question is how to get an offset from the relative position of the mouse pointer to work (NOTE: I _cannot_ use absolute positioning). I downloaded RC11, and it did not fix this issue (but it did solve some others: THANKS !)

Can't do it that way: all of the pages are dynamic. Customers who use the CMS product can set it up in a virtually infinite number of ways: I understand the utility of the fixed positions, but it's not an option.

There seems to be a strange discrepancy, though: when I had

top="offset=50"

ADA Compliance

Just as an FYI for folks in the USA: this is a crucial feature, as if you are using image based menuing and you _don't_ include ALT tags, your site is essentially non-navigable by the software used by vision-impaired users.

It also is no longer ADA Compliant, which may or may not matter ...

If you download the current version of the menu, the scriptpath parameter has been removed.

At that point, you'll just have to wrestle with the src= path.

Two things ...

I don't think I was clear enough. When I said 10 rows, I meant rows that stack horizontally, so the absolute positioning won't work. Check out http://www.dmlco.com/dmlcocms.cfm?a=cms,c,71,2,0 for an example.

And, what browser are you using? I am on IE 6.0.2 and the offset is having ...
