Hiermenus Go Forth, IV:
Version 4 - The Page-Specific Parameters

HM_PG_FontColorOver

Description

Sets the text font color for all highlighted menu items in the page. All menus, in all cascades (top-level and children) are affected.

HM_PG_FontColorOver overrides site-wide global settings declared in the external script.

HM_PG_FontColorOver can be overwritten on a per-tree basis by the mouseover_font_color parameter element in top-level menu arrays.

Value

Hexadecimal color values or color name.
IE-only: May also use CSS decimal RGB color value or user-defined system color value.

May be specified as:

• string
• string JS expression to be evaluated

Example Values

string: "#33AADD"

All highlighted item text will display in the color defined by #33AADD

string: "purple"

All highlighted item text will display in purple.

JS expression: "getFontColorOver()"

A custom function that you have created will be called. The return value of this function will be the HM_PG_FontColorOver parameter, and all menus in the page will comply.

JS expression: "(IE4) ? 'highlighttext' : 'maroon'"

The complete JS code is included in the parameter declaration. In the above example, HM_PG_FontColorOver will be highlighttext (an IE4+ user-defined system color value) if Explorer is being used and maroon for all other browsers.

Default

If this parameter is omitted the relevant Global Parameter value, set in the external script is used.

Differences from Version 3 equivalent

The overFnt parameter in Version 3:

• was mandatory.
• did not accept JS expression values.

Comments

If you are writing for an IE-only environment, for example, a corporate intranet, you can also use:

• CSS decimal RGB color values in the form: rgb(red green blue)
  Ex. "rgb(205 5 122)"
• user-defined system color values. See Column 24 for a complete list of these values.
  Ex. "activecaption"

Next, HM_PG_BGColor.
