open menu vs open page onclick question

Please note that official support for this menu version has now ceased. There are still plenty of users, though, and the forum is still running. Some of our long-time users may be able to help you out.

open menu vs open page onclick question

Post by sherylt@owt.com »

I have a menu that I want to open onclick from a set of graphics. The first two graphics launch a submenu and that works fine. The third just needs to go directly to a single page so an additional menu is not required. This third item does not do anything onclick.

Please see http://users.owt.com/sherylt/costarica/ for the example. "Travel Log" and "Photo Album" work correctly onclick. "Links" needs to directly open a page when clicked on, not spawn a menu. Is this possible?

Thanks,
Sheryl

Sure. Just make a menu entry without a "show-menu=xxx". Instead use "http://www.blabla.com" (perhaps with a "target=" to open the Link in any (new) window. If you want, there is an example for singleclick on http://www.webbosom.online.de/index2.htm (Opera = strange behaviour with the flying one)

Thanks Michael, but I think that's what I've done and it does not seem to work. I tried adding a target to point to the parent frame, but that didn't make a difference. I see that it works for you, so I must have something else fouled up. Here is my code, any suggestions? Sheryl

addmenu(menu=["main", // this is the array that contains your menu properties and details
490, // Top
520, // left
150, // Width
1, // Border Width
"", // Screen Position - here you can use "center;middle;right"
style1, // Properties Array - as above
1, // Always Visible - allows the menu item to be visible at all time
"left", // Alignment - sets the menu elements alignment
, // Filter
, // Follow Scrolling
, // Horizontal Menu
, // Keep Alive
, // Position of TOP sub image left:center:right
, // ..Now Obsolete..
1, // Right To Left - Used in Hebrew for example. (1=on/0=off)
1, // Open the Menus OnClick - leave blank for OnMouseover (1=on/0=off)
, // ID of the div you want to hide on MouseOver
,,,, // Reserved for future use
