I'll let out my secrets :)
But of course, that's what donating is good for, & the money goes to
hosting costs.
I don't know about tutorials on this, but here's what I did
<div id="menu">
<div class="item">item 1</div>
<div class="item">item 2</div>
</div>
The items have mouseover, mouseout and onclick events. Thinking about it
now, I should make them <a> tags with display:block; styles and :hover
selectors. Maybe in the next version. The #menu is display:none;.
My <body> tag has an onClick event to clear open context menus (hide
divs) and has OnContextMenu="return false;".
When you right-click on an icon, it calls onContextMenu to my handler
function. You tell it what menu you want (directory, file, etc.) and
what you right-clicked on (file name). This function sets a variable for
the filename (in case you do something with it), hides the other context
menus, does a little math to tell the position you want it at (below),
and sets the css display to visible.
Here's the positioning js:
if (locationLR == 'left') {
window[menuName].style.right = null;
window[menuName].style.left = window.event.clientX +
document.body.scrollLeft;
} else {
window[menuName].style.left = null;
window[menuName].style.right = Math.abs(window.event.clientX -
document.body.offsetWidth) - 20;
}
window[menuName].style.top = window.event.clientY + document.body.scrollTop;
window[menuName].style.visibility = 'visible';
I've included that because it was probably the hardest part to figure out.
When you click an event in the menu, the onClicks all go through a
goTo() function. You tell it the action
(filesurfer.cfm?action=#action#), and it passes the file name variable
along with the link. Here's the location.href for a good visualization:
window.location.href = myself + '?action=' + action + '&filename=' +
jsDir + rightClick_fileName + LocationExtra;
So, that's pretty much all of it. No more secrets. Good luck with your
project.
