Dynamic Content Stucture menu (AJAX) prototype

Saturday 29 October 2005 2:42:15 am

Hi

I have now updated the contribution page with Davids latest changes.

I just figured out that you can actually get a tarball directly from websvn. If you want the latest version of the menu, you can just use the link below, and it will automatically create a tarball of the latest files in svn:
http://pubsvn.ez.no/websvn/dl.php?repname=community&path=%2Ftrunk%2Fextension%2Fdynamicmenu%2F&rev=0&isdir=1

It's Magic ;-)

Hi Kristian,

we did an ajax treemenu, too. I didn't test yours for quite a long time now, so i don't know how advanced it is. But the one we made is heavily tested and in productional use for quite some time now - and it includes every single feature the original one from eZ publish 3.6.1 has (including a fallback if javascript is disabled).

I think Sandro send this treemenu to you about a week ago. If you didn't tested it yet, forget about the one via email an use the one here on ez.no, as we've done a litle code-cleanup in it.

Bad both of us made the same thing - we didn't plan to start a competition, but really needed a stable solution. And as there wasn't one in sight in september we had to write it ourselfs.

Sorry we didn't commit this earlier and I didn't get in contact with you. Could have saved much work for both of us!

Promise: I won't let something like this happen again!

@all with tons of objects: Now there are two contributions - hope one of them fits your needs ;)

Greetings, Daniel.

p.s.: Forgot the link to the second tree menu:

I have just checked out the newest version, and it puts the letter asdf at the end of all my menuitems.

I am running a site with multiple admin-siteaccesses, and the extension only works for the main admin-siteaccess.

Hi Bo,

ezodcsm (the other ajax-tree) can be enabled on other admin interfaces. Actually you can use it on your user sites, too. Just enable it with "ActiveExtensions[]=ezodcsm" in you /settings/site.ini and it should come up everywhere you're using the normal tree menu before.

Bugs and Wishes.

@Kristian:
Bug: After you introduced the code, for the emnu to remember which parts where open, I have had a problem. If I have the menu for a folder open under the content part, and then switch to the medialibrary, then the folder which where open, will still be marked as open (with a '-') when i return to content, but the menuentries isn't shown, and if i press the '-' to close the menu, and then the '+' to open it agian, there are still no items.

Wish: It would be nice if there where some kind of marking of nodes that are hidden, like there is in the original eZ-menu.

Hi Tony,

I think that the ezodcsm menu developed by Daniel is the menu with the most complete functionality, and which uses templates that are closest to the original templates. Based on this, I think that continuing our efforts on the ezodcsm menu is the smartest thing to do. The timeout should be easy to implement in the ezodcsm menu.
