Trouble with menus
« on: May 15, 2017, 02:18:53 PM »
Using Nettalk 8.71

I am currently using the double drop menu, but I want to switch to a side type menu. 

The TaskPanel type is my first choice, and working fine except for one thing.  If you close a level 2 menu and try and open it again it doesn't open all the way.  You can see this in my example app by closing the Item or Mailboxes menu then opening it again.  It looks like the problem is in the java script.  However I'm not very good at java script, and a lot of code gets run so tracking down the problem has been difficult.

The Accordion again breaks on level 2.  In my example if you switch the menu to Accordion Mailboxes looks and functions correct, but Item doesn't get the css applied to it.  In my testing in my main app the css is never applied to any level 2 menu.

The only thing I could find in the patch notes for NT9 is something vague about the css header.  IF that fixed my issues can you let me know?

Thanks

can you post an example with your menu in it? Then I can see what might be causing it, and indeed if it is already fixed.

(aside: side-type menus are not great at multiple levels - the nesting there gets complicated for the javascript to figure out.For multi-level menus I strongly recommend the top menu.)

Cheers

I modified example 2 to show the problem I'm having and included it in my first post.  If you need something more from the example let me know.

If the side menus aren't going to work at all then I guess I'm going to have to get more creative as I feel the style makes the site look more modern.
