Q: I have another question regarding the popup window. I need to use an iframe within the popup window. Is there any way I can close the dhtml popup from the page loaded within the iframe?
A: You can close the popup using the following function:
document.getElementById('win').hide();
Unfortunately it won't work if you use iframe as window content.
You open another page in the popup (in Iframe) so you cannot accessdocument.getElementById('win').hide();
element which is situated on the first page.
When you use text or object_id as window content the content of the popup will be situatedon the same page so you can access document.getElementById('win') element and hide it.
There is a workaround.
Use text as content type and add the following code inside popup:
<a onclick="document.getElementById('win').hide();">...</a> <iframe></iframe>
Your link will work in that case.

Q: I would like to add a javascript link but cannot seem to get it handle the event as a tag or onclick event. I just want to grab the current page, insert it into a string, and go off to the page it specifies. Can this be done?
A: You're able to use Javascript for each item, for example:
var menuitems = [
["item text", "javascript:your_code_here"]
];
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 = [
["<div onClick='your_code_here'>item text</div>", "index.html"]
];
Q: I've begun experimenting with the dhtml rollover menu program and like what I see.
Question, when I have a tree menu on the left and the user clicks a node, I want the resulting HTML page to appear next to the dhtml rollover menu, on the right hand side. How do I reposition the HTML page so it doesn't take up the whole page and cover the menu?
A: You can use frames and open link pages into the content frame, or use Iframe.
Please, set the name for your iframe, for example:
<iframe name ='myFrame' ...
<frame name ='myFrame' ...
And then you must set the following dhtml rollover menu parameter in the data file withyour menu:
var titemTarget="myFrame";
