Q: Can I use javascript to get the object (getElementByID). If not howdo I hide my dropdown menu on print?
A: You can add a new button to print your page and call onClick event, soyou should write:
<body ....
onClick="document.getElementById('dm0m0').style.visibility='hidden'; window.print();">
...
</body>
Or you can use the same javascript code from your menu item.
For example:
var menuItems = [
["Print", "javascript:document.getElementById('dm0m0').style.visibility='hidden';
window.print();", icon1, icon2],
];
But if you want to hide the menu when your customers push "File/Print"you should write so:
You must create two functions, for example:
function myprint()
{ document.getElementById('dm0m0').style.visibility='hidden';
window.print();
}
function myprint2()
{ document.getElementById('dm0m0').style.visibility='visible';
window.print();
}
You should add this functions into your code.
And then you must write so:
window.onbeforeprint = myprint;
window.onafterprint = myprint2;
Q: Is there any way to call a javascript function on mouseover from a menu item for a sub navigation bar?
A: You can use your own javascript functions in the menu items.
You should paste "javascript:some_function()" into item's link field, for example:
var menuItems = [
["text", "javascript:your_function(...)", ...]
];
var menuItems = [
["item text", "javascript:alert('Hello World')", , , , ,]
];
Unfortunately, you can't assign onmouseover/onClick event to each item. However, you can achieve this by using standard html objects within items, for example:
var menuitems = [
["item text
", "index.html"]
];
