The longhorn skin has a funny problem: when moving over the menu, when you come to a sub-menu the arrow goes from black to blue, but goes to white first (making it blink). It doesn't seem to do that on any other skin. Testing it in Firefox 1.5.

onkeypress

I have what I think is probably a very simple question. Since the dynarch menu can handle html then I should easily be able to add an onkeypress to my <li> element.

In that event I want to trigger the closing of the dynarch menu just as if I had clicked off the menu. The reason for this is that I have the dynarch menu fired on clicking on certain text fields to give them the option of looking the value up.. if they enter a value I want the menu to go away without them having to move the mouse (with the electric set).

Yes, this should be possible (thought not quite documented).  There's one global function that closes all visible menus, I think you could use that.  Just call:

DynarchMenu._closeOtherMenus(null);

in your event handler.

Hope this helps.

Hello! Can someone help me?

When I view my site for the first time, the dropdown script is taking too long to load. It displays all the links first using the list layout before executing the dropdown.

Please check this url to see what I'm talking about:

Thank you so much!

Check out this thread: http://www.dynarch.com/forums/106

Also note that this is the #1 question answered in the DynarchMenu FAQ (you also have that in the ZIP package). ;-)

Hello again!

Can someone check my dropdown here?
http://www.olivefarm.com/index.php?action=portalindex&cat_id=31369

If you mouse over 'Gifts' or 'From the Kitchen', there's a weird scrollbar that appears on the back of the popup. The other dropdowns doesn't have it.

Thank you so much.

You most probably didn't defined the URL to menu files (the _dynarch_menu_url global variable). Please read the documentation, the section "Loading the scripts", or pass shadows: false to DynarchMenu.setup.

Keeping the menu from spreading out while loading

When a page using the Dynarch Menu loads we get a huge box until the full menu script loads. This causes the background image to repeat until the page is fully loaded... which makes the page look sloppy. Is there a way to keep it 1 line right away?

example: http://elzweig.com/pages.php?s=alias:MeetTeam

We had a similar problem. Our solution was to place the menu in a DIV and set the display style to none. In the body onload(), after we call setup menu, we change the style on the DIV to 'block'. We also use lazy loading (or menus can grow dynamically and become quite large) and it's working great.

Scrolling large menus

In our application, we are using the menu to dislay a hierachical list of products from which the users can select. Our problem is that the heirarchy for each client is significantly different. One client will have only a couple levels with a few items per level. Others may have 5 levels, and any individual level may have 30 or more items. The problem comes in when the menu positioning code opens the subwindow, if it's longer than the viewable area of the screen, the menu essentially grows the page, but the bottom of the menu will not be visible. If you are not using a mouse with a scroll wheel, it can become impossible to navigate parts of the menu. Because of the nature of the data we're using, reorganizing the menu is not really an option. What would be ideal for us would be to be able to set a limit on the number of items to display at a time (say 10), and have the menu be able to scroll inside of itself. (I've seen feature in other menus, but none were as cool as this one:).

multiple menus with the same id

I just bought hmenu. I really like the menu but am having a problem implementing it in my site. I have a table and need to have the same menu display in each row (but the URL for the links in the menu changes based on the row). How can I do this? since hmenu seems to work on ID rather than class or name that I can't use the same identifiier in each row. But I also don't want to initialize the onload event with a gazillion scripts to load different menus (one for each row).

The number of rows is dynamic and comes from a database (it could be several dozen so I really just want to change the contents of the <li> tag in each menu tree rather than having to have multiple ID or scripts loaded.

Yes—you really need to use multiple ID-s. But DynarchMenu has a feature that might help you—it can clone popup menus from a different <UL>. Please see examples/clone-popups.html for a sample of using it.

So using this feature, you would only need to duplicate the toplevel <UL> and then use cloned popups as menu items.

As for the onload problem, you do need to call DynarchMenu.setup for each one, but you can do this in a for loop, in a function, and you call that function upon body.onload.
