Eric,
This way of doing eliminates all kind of error and makes completely
safe your menus handling.
My disableMenuItems & enableMenuItems handlers will be included in
the next release of Serendipity Library:
on disableMenuItems menuButtonId, itemNumberList
get the text of button id menuButtonId
repeat for each item menuItemNumber in itemNumberList
if char 1 of line menuItemNumber of it <> "(" then put "("
before line menuItemNumber of it
end repeat
set the text of button id menuButtonId to it
end disableMenuItems
on enableMenuItems menuButtonId, itemNumberList
get the text of button id menuButtonId
repeat for each item menuItemNumber in itemNumberList
if char 1 of line menuItemNumber of it = "(" then delete char 1
of line menuItemNumber of it
end repeat
set the text of button id menuButtonId to it
end enableMenuItems
Since these are meant for gereral purpose use by other developers, it
cannot be guaranteed that a referenced menuItem is not already in the
desired state.
BTW, I changed the itemNumberList format from return-delimited lines
to comma-delimited items, because it's easier to script:
disableMenuItems 1004,"11,13"
than
disableMenuItems 1004, "11"&return&"13"
especially when there are many menuItems involved.
With these handlers in Serendipity Library, I can now do all my menu
setup at preOpenStack.
