      Return to Recent Questions Does your dynamic menu allows to keep the menu-item that has been pressed hightlighed? 
 
 Q:
As a part-time webdeveloper I have gotten very interested in your
 product. I really appreciate a number of things
 
 - it's very flexible
 - it's very easy to work with
 - examples nicely show the capabilities
 
 But I have a couple of questions:
 
 - When opening a menu, there is an option for keeping the menu-item that
 has been pressed hightlighed (so that the user can see what he/she
 pressed). Is it possible, programmatically, to decide when this
 highlighting should be removed? The scenario is that, when a menu-item
 is clicked the used might browse for a couple of pages within the
 context defined by the menu-item, but when the user leaves, the
 menu-item should no longer be highlighted. I will (programmatically)
 decide the context, but is it possible for me to interact with the menu,
 and for example decide explicitly which menu should be highlighted?
 - Our design department would like the menu containing the elements:
 "Skovdrift, Juletreer, Skovrejsning, etc". Please notice that "Brende"
 is supposed to show a menu item that is hightlighted. Is is possible to
 create this menu such that it is dynamic and each item is text-based
 (and not based on two pictures for each menu-entry: hightlighted and
 not)? I've been wondering how to solve this problem, but I cannot figure
 out a solution. The problem that I is stuck at, is how organise this
 speciel "frame" around each menu-element. Something that be partly
 accomplished using "arrowImageMain", but that does not bring me all the
 way. Please notice that the menu-items might not have any sub-menu.
 
 
 A:
I suppose that you're saying about
 var pressedItem=-2;
 Defines an item that will appear in the highlighted state
 (-2 - normal mode, -1 - toggle mode is active, but highlighted item not defined,
 0,1,2,3,... - # of pressed item including separators)
 
 This parameter will not approach you.
 
 You should set a pressed item using Javascript API:
 
 function dm_ext_setPressedItem (menuInd, submenuInd, itemInd, recursion)
 
 Sets a current pressed item.
 menuInd - index of a menu on a page, >= 0.
 submenuInd - index of a submenu, >= 0.
 itemInd - index of an item, >=0.
 recursion = true/false - highlight parent items.
 
 But notice, to use dm_ext_setPressedItem() you should know ID of selected item and subitem.
 You can't get this ID after you reload your page. That is why you should write your own code on PHP.
