How can I display different ContextMenu's depending on the different types of TreeNodes. With Javascript I can get the node text by node.getText() or the value by node.getValue() but how can I get the ItemID? The ItemID should contain my different Looks so that I can determine what ContextMenu to display.

Then why do I get undefined in the alert box with this?


<script type="text/javascript">
function ShowContextMenu(e, treeView, node) {
//Get the context menu object
var menu = eo_GetObject("<%=eo_menu_Content.ClientID%>");

alert(node.getItemId());


eo_ShowContextMenu(e, "<%=eo_menu_Content.ClientID%>");

return true;
}
function MenuItemClickHandler(e, info) {
window.alert("Menu item '" +
info.getItem().getValue() + "' clicked.");
}
</script>

Hi,

We are not aware of any problem with getItemId function. It should return whatever ItemID value you set on the server side. If the node has ItemID set, getItemId will return the set value; otherwise it has nothing to return and you get undefined.

Thanks

Ok yes what you said worked however now that I'm also Binding the ItemID so that I can read it in the JavaScript and display my correct ContextMenu I can no longer get the OnItemClick or OnItemMove to work in the TreeView. If I comment out the DataBinding of the ItemID then the OnItemMove works and the OnItemClick works.

Is there any way that with the

function ShowContextMenu(e, treeView, node)

to read the LookID or other properties that will not break the one action for another?

I found that the property axp in the node has what I need. Do you change these properties with your builds or am I safe to use this.


<script type="text/javascript">
function ShowContextMenu(e, treeView, node) {
//Get the context menu object
var ItemId = node['axp'];
switch (ItemId)
{
case "_SubmittedList":
eo_ShowContextMenu(e, "<%=eo_menu_SubmittedList.ClientID%>");
break
case "_LockedList":
eo_ShowContextMenu(e, "<%=eo_menu_LockedList.ClientID%>");
break
case "_DefaultList":
eo_ShowContextMenu(e, "<%=eo_menu_DefaultList.ClientID%>");
break
case "_Default":
eo_ShowContextMenu(e, "<%=eo_menu_Default.ClientID%>");
break
case "_Root":
eo_ShowContextMenu(e, "<%=eo_menu_Root.ClientID%>");
break
default:
alert('Sorry no menu for this group');
}
return true;
}
</script>

Yes I understand that you can not add something every time some requests. Please let me know if you do add this in the next build though
