This still wont work.. I've even tried copy your example character by character and it still gives nothing.. I'm using this code on http://ferok.com/labs/test.html at the bottom bar, try clicking the "My Account" and the menu wont "pop up". I had this working before, but I didn't have this dynamic code which I can use to open more than just 1 "tab".
The CSS: #stuff_menu {background-color:#E8E8E8;border: 1px solid #666666;bottom: 22px;display:none;left:0px;padding:5px 5px 1px 5px;position: absolute;width:200px;} On Jan 5, 5:03 pm, brian <zijn.digi...@gmail.com> wrote: > That works for me but I do see how this can be refactored: > > <a id="stuff" class="baritem" href="#stuff_menu">My Account</a> > > <div id="stuff_menu" class="SomeClass"> > <a href="##">My Account</a> > <a href="##">More stuff</a> > <a href="##">Here is a menu item</a> > <a href="##">Here is a menu item</a> > <a href="##">Here is a menu item</a> > <a href="##">Here is a menu item</a> > </div> > > Notice that I've changed the IDs so that the DIV has the link ID plus > some other string, rather than the other way around. > > Also, I've added a class to the DIV to make it easier to set styles. > This isn't strictly necessary. > > $(function() > { > /* set up the onclick handler for all links on page load > */ > $('.baritem').click(function() > { > $('#' + this.id + '_menu').toggle(); > return false; > }); > > > > }); > On Mon, Jan 4, 2010 at 4:01 PM, Valerij <valeri...@gmail.com> wrote: > > Hey guys, I'm trying to create 1 really simple function but it just > > doesn't work! > > > function showMenu(menu) { > > var menuid = $( "#"+menu ); > > var menuRoot = $( "#"+menu+"-root" ); > > > menuid.toggle(); > > menuRoot.blur(); > > } > > > What this suppose to do is when you click a link, it will change > > settings of a specific div to "visible" > > The HTML: > > > <a id="stuff-root" class="baritem" href="javascript:void(0)" > > onclick="showMenu('stuff');">My Account</a> > > <div id="stuff"> > > <a href="##">My Account</a> > > <a href="##">More stuff</a> > > <a href="##">Here is a menu item</a> > > <a href="##">Here is a menu item</a> > > <a href="##">Here is a menu item</a> > > <a href="##">Here is a menu item</a> > > </div> > > > Why doesn't this work?
