Unusual Popup Request


Poster: marcusg

My customer wants to use an unusual popup link. I'm using version 5.744 of the menu.

<href="#" onClick="javascript: OpenPopUp('/cgi-bin/domain_renew.pl',1); return false">

obviously I don't need the # to hide the url and the 'onClick' would not be needed, but I can't get the menu to recognise this link.

I know the problem is with the '; return false' item since the ';' flags a new menu variable. I've tried a number of combinations including the following:

aI("text=Popup menu test;image=menu/newsimage.gif;url=javascript:OpenPopUp('/cgi-bin/domain_renew.pl',1); return false);;status=Test Popup Link;separatorsize=1"))

Any suggestions? Thanks for your help in advance.

Hi,

I'm not a js person, but I found a posts that seem to be about the return false

Also, can't you put the function at the top of the menu data file and include the return false as part of the function? [showing my lack of js :) ]
