Snippet: CoolMenuPro
Required: CoolMenuPro
nice script to build a javascript menu
only vertical allignment atm
my goal is to build in all cool menu pro samples


Thx to Ralph for making even more confusing but i got most my errors out talking to him


v0.3 changes:
- oops forgot the link, added now
- also made a horizontal menu

v0.2 changes:
- correct displaying colors
- several small typo's in the loop

and here's the script:
chunk {{CoolMenuPro}} (should be placed in header)

/*

v0.3

$id = isset($id) ? $id : $etomite->documentIdentifier;
$sortby = "menuindex";
$sortdir = "ASC";
$fields = "id, pagetitle, description, parent, alias";
$arrange = isset($arrange) ? $arange : "vertical";


function recursiveLoop($id,$sortby, $sortdir, $fields,$etomite)
{
	$temp = "";
	$children = $etomite->getActiveChildren($id, $sortby, $sortdir, $fields);
	foreach($children as $child)
	{		
		$temp .= '{code:"'.$child['pagetitle'].'", url:"[~'.$child['id'].'~]",'."\n";
		if($etomite->getActiveChildren($child['id'], $sortby, $sortdir, $fields))
		{
			$temp .= "sub:[{},"."\n";
			$temp .= recursiveLoop($child['id'],$sortby, $sortdir, $fields,$etomite);
			$temp .= "],"."\n";
		}
		$len = strlen($temp);
		$temp = substr($temp,0,$len-2);
		$temp .= "},"."\n";
	}
	$len = strlen($temp);
	$temp = substr($temp,0,$len-2);
	return $temp;
}



$output = "
var STYLE_0 =

	borderWidth:1,
	borderColor:'#666666',
	backgroundColor:[ 'black', '#B6BDD2' ],

updated to v0.3

You need to add the if($children = $etomite->getActiveChildren($id, $sortby, $sortdir, $fields)) control block to the outer query as well to account for the main query not returning results, wrapped around the whole foreach() structure...

[Mukke]

yeh maybe
but if there is no page, there will also be no menu
and if there are 0 elements returned the foreach won't loop anyway

If foreach() cannot complete at least one iteration it will throw an error... You really need a conditional logic check, trust me... I've written enough code without one and ended up having to add one later on to know...
