Milonic JavaScript Menu

Hi All,

Is there any way to add a menu bar item and submenu items under the menu bar item? I just want to add an additional menubar item with a few options for logged in users without having to create another menu. I want to add the new manubar/submenu items on the client-side duirng ONLOAD event ...

Never mind. It was pagecolor/pagebgcolor causing the problem. Problem solved.

I don't remember as it was a long time ago I programmed my menu but now I see the clicked submenu item and its main menu item are getting highlighted. The problem is - the main menu item is highlighted in such a way that its text is not visible until I mouseover it (submenu item highlighting is ok ...

Understandable

Goodluck with your new website,

Thanks much, Ruth. I was able to change the submenu orientation to horizontal but still trying to figure out how to go about making the current submenu alwaysvisible. Maybe, I'll try writing/reading a cookie with JS.

Horizontal submenus starting at 0 is not an issue as they are nicely positioning ...

A better and easier way for you to do this might be to convert the current/clicked submenu's ORIENTATION into a *horizontal* static/alwaysvisible menu (while the current/clicked mainmenu item would be a static bold header in oncolor) while other submenus are usual vertical dropdowns.

Thanks,

I just tried tooltips.js and setting tooltips on submenu items are sending the submenus behind select dropdowns on hilighting the submenus.

Known issue? Any patch?

Thanks, I'll try that out.

By the way, where do I download the pre-release? Just download any example? I downloaded my example last week. The download link shows 5.770. Is 5.771 in a private beta area?

Thanks again...

How do I switch the orientation of all the submenus from vertical to horizontal and back at runtime? The main menubar should always be horizontal, though. I'm looking to switch the orientation of just the submenus. By the way, the submenus when oriented horizontally, should start their left most ...

Ruth,

You almost got the idea. Just one clarification:

3. When the main item is clicked it will go to a page and the original submenu now has to be totally different, it must be horizontal *** and all the items are now rendered right under the main menu bar as a horizontal submenu (preferably with ...

How do I go about indicating the currently clicked menu item similar to Milonic's menu on their website:

DHTML Menu -> DHTML Menu Samples

On clicking any sample, the page loads and the submenu item now shows with two hyphens to its left indicating the currently selected item. I may use an checked ...

I'm trying to set fixed width to the menubar items as under:

Home -> 50px
Application -> 150px
Preferences -> 150px
Help -> 50px

There are more menubar items with 150px in between but the above is just an example. In the above, the Home and Help menubar items do NOT have submenus and so I want to ...

Will the pre-release display headers as plain text without javascript:void(0) in the statusbar as in the above filter demo examples (Actions header)?

On furher investigation, the submenu does not re-appear at all on cancelling the RMB menu in Firefox and menus always display over form fields in Firefox. The problem is manifest in IE (I don't know about other browsers).

Regards,

As I guessed, it is a problem with all type of menus. Here is a quick-n-dirty HTML to paste into drawMenus() right after echoing the menu script:

echo '<br><br><select name="sort" style="width: 150px; ">
<option value="asc">Ascending</option>
<option value="desc">Descending</option>
</select ...

Unfortunately, I'm working on a dev machine (localhost) and there is no public URL for the world as the application is still being developed. I can send you a screenshot, though.

Thanks,

Right-clicking on submenu item makes the submenu disappear while the right-mouse button menu is on. After coming out from the RMB menu, the submenu re-appears - only this time, behind the form fields such as select dropdowns. All other menus display behind form fields after that until the page is ...

I've gone through:

http://support.milonic.com/demos/filters/index.htm
http://support.milonic.com/demos/filter ... rs_data.js

and trying to figure out how the headers are rendered as plain text. Because I'm having 2 issues with headers:

1. Showing a hand cursor
2. Showing javascript:void(0) in the ...

I changed the drawMenus() function to return the complete string to echo it later in my template. Inside the template, when I echo it as is, its fine but when I do a trim on it and then echo it, the first 2 menubar items are getting duplicated in IE (Firefox is fine). Is this a known issue?

TIA

I solved the problem by using a <div> with a bgimage and height.

Thanks,
