Hiermenus Go Forth, V:
Version 4 - The Page-Specific Parameters (cont'd)
HM_PG_BorderColor
- Description
- Sets the border color for all menus in the page. All menus, in all cascades (top-level and children) are affected.
HM_PG_BorderColor overrides site-wide global settings declared in the external script.
HM_PG_BorderColor can be overwritten on a per-tree basis by the border_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: "#99AD3F"
All menu borders will display in the color defined by #99AD3F
string: "red"
All menu borders will display in red.
JS expression: "getBorderColor()"
A custom function that you have created will be called. The return value of this function will be the HM_PG_BorderColor parameter, and all menus in the page will comply.
JS expression: "(IE4) ? 'threedhighlight' : 'black'"
The complete JS code is included in the parameter declaration. In the above example, HM_PG_BorderColor will be threedhighlight (an IE4+ user-defined system color value) if Explorer for Windows is being used and black 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 borCol 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. "activeborder"
