Milonic JavaScript Menu

Hello, Hello!

I know its been a very long time, I do appologise. And to make matters worse Im absolutly snowed under still! Ive now got 2 sites on the go as well as my day job, not to mention plans for my own sites. But thats usual, nothing for ages then it comes all at once!

Please feel free to ...

Yeah no stress there, Ive got alot on over the next couple of weeks. Progress will be virtually non-existant.
Zip Files below are up to date.
Will be back in contact when I have some free time again.
Hope you feel better soon , p.s. My mother always reccomended a nice strong bourbon!

Allo, Allo :!:

Well heres the latest update...
Ive reworked the internal layer layout to make it more cross browser compatable, this includes removing the list ( <ul> ) based menu with a css styled span menu. Much simplier!! Also removed a FF fix style I applied! Really was just bad css coding on ...

Yes well this is the hard part, I can see valid reasoning for everything we've come up with. At the end of the day its gonna come down to who this is targeted at. Its really a functionality vs. user-frindly compromise when deciding what to include as settings.
How about a few initial setups on the ...

Well whats the advantage of having a box around the menu? firstly it looks bad IMO, and secondly it makes submenus open (IMO) in the wrong place. By that reasoning I think we should do without width as a %age altogeather. This also applies to margin.
However margin can be done without any trouble ...

ok... I though Id already replied...

yes the menu is contained within a apparently unnamed layer (box) which is drawn upon calling drawmenus();

Your spot on with the width % and px changes, and also menualign within that layer. The useability side of it I have a think about, could go either way on ...

Ahh I see the menu does center with align, maybee I didnt have the width set right, sorry! I'll semi automate that one so the width setting isn't an issue.
I have an idea for seperators, I'll get that working and everything else on that last post.
The contents section is a work in progress, that ...

Hello, yah movie night was great! Needed a break been working on this evrey night after work for quite a while now, well pretty much every night, I get distracted easily ;)
Menualign wont center, but hey I how much goes into this, dont worry I'll fix it up. Also I'll do the seperators, Tell ya what ...

Hi folks, what Im trying to do is reload the menu_data.js file, now since its loaded after the soure files I assume it can be done.

If I put a document.write("<scr"+"ipt type=text/javascript src=menu_data.js><\/scr"+"ipt>");
or
document.write("<script type="text/javascript" src="menu_data.js ...

here is a table data entry from the image page....
<td>
<div class="maskclass"><input type="text" ID="onbgimage" .......></div>
<input type="file" ID="Bonbgimage" .........>
</td>
Due to security measures we cannot directly edit the file input field.
Thats why I put the "<div class="maskclass ...

view data... Im gonna focus on the options and layout tonight.

As for now Im gonna leave the write to file part out (I'll leave the code in there if I choose to implement that later. Gonna have to think about that some more, will look into another cross browser compatable alternative.

I like the ...

I already have the design area working... just gotta get the <div ID=....></div> to output to the layer without actually creating a layer there!!! It wont be a problem actually writing it to a file (cause no HTML interpreter to read it). It will save to the menu_data.js file.
As to the scroll layers ...

made some more changes....
[link removed, no longer available]et up a automatic online and local mode, removed save from tabs, more on images page, fixed a few small bugs, placed resets in pages, still gotta finish the initform() code for that one though.
working on saving now, will work fine with ...

I saw you took the hex color textboxes out, I would rather them in cause it gives much greater felexabiliy over setting the colors rather than just the colors given by the pop-up. Personally I like that sort of thing, but then hey it aint for me I guess ;) Go with what you think is best, dont spend ...

I think you may have downloaded a transitional version... I upload often to serve as a backup.
I remember fixing the Iborderstyle last night. I like the two colours tabs, do you think we should call them onColor/offColor?
Also you've raised a good point... do we need a reset page dialog? If so by ...

Hold on a sec, show me what you've done! Im just playing around with that, design is my weak point, :? I'm hoping you can show me a really novel way of displaying all these options. BTW dont feel restricted by the layout I've done, feel free to totally change the works. If you could post a HTML page ...

Yes that makes sence, either that or a layer which slides in from the side with directions relevant to each tabbed page. The reason for the [link removed, no longer available] is so we can open the builder in a pop-up window which gives the ability to dictate nav/status/tool bars etc, allowing a bit ...

Sounds great Ruth Ive been getting alot further today, got the flu so its natural to spend most of the day in front of the comp... Doing the images part now... links above.

:oops: Sorry forgot to add the link...
[link removed, no longer available]

Shortcut those if you want, they will always point to the latest work.

Yes its very easy to split the editing features, what do you have in mind? I think I see where you're going and yes it would be heaps easier, but then ...

Hi Ruth, when you say filters do you mean overfilter? If so that wont be hard to remove from the menu part (in menu_data.js right?).

I havn't even thought about images, I imagine we should be able to incorporate that so long as they are put into the containing directory, otherwise we will have ...
