[Editor's note: this page was updated on May 1, 2003 to add support for later browsers.]
The menu above has a SELECT form element immediately below it. When the child menu appears, the form element is hidden. When the child element is hidden, the form element reappears.
A custom function that you have created is called. Unlike function calls used to determine other parameter values, here we expect no return value. We simply execute the function statements when the menu tree is hidden. See the second example on the previous page.
JS expression (complete statement): "someImage.src = 'imageoff.gif'"
The src of a menu-related in-page image is changed when the menu tree is hidden. See the first example on the previous page.
If omitted, no special action is taken when the menu tree is hidden.
That completes our in-depth description of the Tree-Specific Overhead Parameters.
In our next column, we'll wrap up our discussion of the Version 4 menu-creating arrays, with a look at the new Item-Specific Parameters.
As before, on our final page, we have included an Array-Conversion tool to help you convert your existing Version 3 arrays to the new standard.
