Milonic JavaScript Menu

Doh, that was careless - sorry about that - will give it a try

Hi Kevin,

Thanks for the answer. Unfortunately I don't seem to be able to get it to work.

These are my two styles (the rawcss in the 1st one is to get the padding to the right but I can't have an image now other wise the image is padded to the end and therefore does not sit where I want it)

with ...

Hi,

I have a 3 level menu. The 1st level is always visible (the main menu), the second and third both "pop up" when "moused over". I have used the _suboffsetlleft so that I can position the second submenu in the right place (25px to the right).
The problem is then that the 3rd submenu is also ...

Thanks Andy - works a treat

Hi,

I am using an ASP script to generate my menu_data file and I am using a special comment from MS (that IE detects and acts on) in the script, however by using this comment - the menu breaks (i.e I get javascript errors)

The code:


with(HeadersStyle=new mm_style()){
<!--[if !IE]>
bordercolor ...

Hi again Ruth,

I reloaded the site (deleted all the cache on my local device and uploaded all the data to the server) and now it seems to work ok - I must have corrupted something on either the upload or on a cached version.

Again my thanks

I am afraid I don't know the relationship - mine was put together by a bit of a trial and error. Haven't seen any app although I believe Dreamweaver can be made to use the menu (thru templates) although this is way beyond my meagre skill level.

This is an example of part of mine - if it helps ...

Thanks Ruth.

I did replace all three (+ the modules in use), but it doesn't work. However at this stage my whole site has decided to have the tuesday blues. Not sure if it is menu related. anyway it is at test.drumanda.net

bervlit,

it is possible - I have used ASP and MSAccess on my site (although with the latest version - it broke). If you need help I can try and help - not an total expert tho

Hi,

I just upgraded to the latest version and now my menu has stopped working - and for the life of me I cannot figure out why. Can someone take a look and let me know what stupid mistake I have made

Thanks

function mm_openUrl(url) { menu = _itemRef; pmenu = getParentItemByItem ...

I run part of mine thru asp and MS Access

Hi Ruth,

I used the following script that i modified at the top of my data file
function mm_openUrl(url)
{
menu = _itemRef;
pmenu = getParentItemByItem(_itemRef);
hmenu = getParentItemByItem(getParentItemByItem(_itemRef));
if (hmenu==-1) {hmenu=""}
else {hmenu = "&hmenu=" + hmenu}
if (pmenu ...

Ruth and Shap5202,

I managed to get it to work, so thanks both for your help!

you can use _itemRef to get a reference to the menu item ID. Should be able to pass that to a javascript method or something in your menu url?

Thanks Shap5202,

I have never been able to get the _itemRef to work (other than getting -1 the whole time)

I was hoping that I could look in _m or _mi ...

Thanks again Ruth for the ideas and links.

One final question : Do you know a way that I can determine the internal ID's associated with each menu item?

Ruth,

2 thanks - 1 for your help and a second (big one) for the complement. One of the first I have received :)

I have tried implementing your suggestion for the page match. For example I have included the following

aI("status=The Cats;text=The Cats(12 pics);url=/ASPScripts/pictures.asp?subcat ...

Hi Ruth,

you can take a look at test.drumanda.net
username is test and password is test.

If you go through the following menu
Pictures, South Africa (104pics), Kruger National Park(31pics)

when you arrive at the pics, you can see that the menu is highlighted correctly, if you then page through ...

Thanks Ruth,

I am a bit of a "fly by night" coder when it comes to web pages - especially javascript!

Another question if I may:

I have a ASP page which lists pictures I have taken on my site. However if there are a lot of pages, I use a paging function.

i.e. Page one has pic 1-12, page 2 has pic 13-24

When I use the menu to go to pictures page, then the highlight shows which menu I am in (i.e ...

Hi,

I have recently come across your menus and have been trying them out. Excellent stuff!!

However I have a query re this funtion and the example you gave on

Basically I have managed to implement it as you put in the example, however I have ...
