Milonic JavaScript Menu

My two cents: I wonder if your client would accept a response like, "We're sorry, but since IE7 is still a release candidate only, that means it's still under development. If we work to make the menu compatible with IE7 now, there's no guarantee that it will be compatible when the official rele...

Hi Greg, I haven't used it, but I would suppose that you could use it with getElementById(), to get the item object, then manipulate it's styles etc. Alternatively, a function like this might work for you: function mm_changeItemPropertyById(itemID, codeRef, newValue, updateDisplay) { for (i=0; i<_mi...

If I understand your meaning correctly... Yes, you can generate the menu through php without relying on a database. Generating the js code dynamically, using PHP, vs. using static js code should not affect your config options. Note thath the menu on the main Milonic.com site uses php, and it takes a...

And that's the exact way to do it. Nicely done! Seems your day is improving

Hi Sandy, I see... i was confused by your first set of example code, because it was missing the script tags that load the old menu code: <title>GVO header</title> </head> <BODY bgcolor="#FFFFFF" TEXT="#000000" LINK="darkblue" VLINK="black" ALINK="#000000&...

Oops... thanks Ruth. Sorry about that Sandy.

Regarding the table-related tags... there's no telling why they might be like that unless we can see the larger context. However, it is certain that these are unrelated to the menu (even the old one). If you could give us a link to the site, we would be able to address your questions more easily. Ch...

Excellent idea Ruth!

Hello, I do understand the upper half/lower half issue; I noticed it last night. That's why I asked if the delay was absolutely necessary, because it is this delay that is causing the upper half to "appear" before the lower half. As you know, a mouseover effect on the actual moused over it...

Hi, I see the problem. I was trying to see what version of the menu system you're running, but it seems that you may have changed the names of the files containing the base menu code. You should open the milonic_src.js file (whatever it's called on your site) to see what version you are running. The...

I think I understand the problem from the look I had at the site last night. The shopping cart menu item shows the mouseover effects as soon as the pointer... well... mouses over it. But the submeu appears after a delay. So you're left with an apparently-pointless mouseover effect until the submenu ...

Thanks for the replay but I was actually hoping that I could use relative paths within the menu_data.js file so that all the menu item URL’s are relative to the site root - I’ve tried using ./foldername/file.htm and ../foldername/file.htm but this doesn't appear to be working on some of my pages. I...

There are two menu item properties that correspond to onmouseover and onmouseout events; they are onfunction and offfunction, respectively. Click here to see an example showing the use of these properties.

Hope that helps,

Hi, The error indicates that the menu you're targeting with mm_insertItem() does not exist in the menu array, _m[]. I'm thinking that you're specifying the target menu incorrectly. In mm_menueditapi.js, the meuRef required as the first parameter to mm_insertItem() looks like it should be a menu name...

Hello Natalia, You have the right idea, but you are applying the properties in the wrong places. You are using horizontalMenuDelay and opendelay as menu style properties , in your definition of menuStyleTopCart, but these are not style properties (you should take them out of menuStyleTopCart). You a...

The root of the issue is that the frame system does not check to see if a menu item is disabled or not, it just opens the submenu. This can be fixed. Two approaches: (1) A change to the openSubmenu() function in mm_naveframe.js, to check to see if a menu item is disabled before opening the associate...

Hi Jukka, You have a couple of syntax issues in your sample code. For example, the double quotes around "menuname" here: <a href="#" onclick="javascript:menuDisplay(gmobj("menuname"),1)">Close all menus</a> will will cause a parsing error for the onclick attri...

Hi David,

Try removing menualign="center"; from your "Main Menu" definition.

Hope that helps,

Hi, Sorry for not replying sooner... I don't think I got an email notification that you had replied to this thread. Either that, or my addled brain just missed it! I do not see any problem with the function; it's exactly as I wrote it. Must be somethuing else. Since I can't reproduce the problem wit...

Hi Linda,

In your test item, try url=/index.html

Does that take you to your home page?
