Over ANY ActiveX (not just Flash which has wmode)

[sanyock]

Hi,

We are looking to purchase a license for dhtml menu which popups over Terminal Server ActiveX.

By default ActiveX elements are windowed in IE.
A few ActiveX like Flash allow to make them windowless using wmode property.
Your sample states it works with select too, but there is only flash demo with wmode="transparent"
http://www.milonic.com/menusample14.php
Would it work correct in IE if wmode="window" is set?

For example TS ActiveX does not have wmode switch to windowless mode.
So the only fix which allows to display DHTML menu over it would be using so called "shim"
You can read more information about shim here:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/177378

It would be very helpful if you could integrate shim method into menu code so that it would create a shim itself.
While it is not done a custom code is needed to be called back from menu to display the shim when menu is activated and hide it when menu is hidden.

DevExpress has a convenient client side events like PopUp and CloseUp.
See sample at:

I looked at your object model and found there are a few function callbacks like:
Onfunction and offfunction. I am not sure which is "Mouse on state"
Is it possible using offfunction or other event to know when user leaves the menu to hide the shim?


Thank you, Alex

I will post this to Milonic. As to the question on off and on function. Offfunction is when the mouse moves off or is not on the item, onfunction is when it moves on it.
