hi folks
i want complete control of my menuing in ASP (no site maps, no hardwired XML
files, etc.) This is all governed by SiteID, ApplicationID, UserID, etc.
i thought i was close with this, but nothing is rending in the control/on
the page (even though I see my 12 items in the databindings are there
menuName.databi ndings.item(0) - (11)).
(Personally, I don't understand why this is so difficult) Here's my code:
Public Sub BuildMenus(ByVa l connString As String, ByVal menuName As
System.Web.UI.W ebControls.Menu , ByVal storedProcedure As String, ByVal
idFieldName As String, ByVal fieldName As String, ByVal sortOrder As String, _
ByVal orderBy As String, ByVal whereClause As String, ByVal MyPage
As System.Web.UI.P age, ByVal siteId As Integer, ByVal applicationId As
String, ByVal userId As Integer)
Dim StoreErrorMessa ge As New SystemTools.Sto reErrorMessages (MyPage)
Dim OpenConnection As New IO.OpenConnecti on
Dim dr As SqlDataReader = Nothing
Dim sqlConn As SqlConnection =
OpenConnection. openConnection( connString, MyPage)
If Not sqlConn Is Nothing Then
Dim sqlCmd As SqlCommand = New
SqlClient.SqlCo mmand(storedPro cedure, sqlConn)
sqlCmd.CommandT ype = CommandType.Sto redProcedure
sqlCmd.Paramete rs.AddWithValue ("@SiteID", siteId)
sqlCmd.Paramete rs.AddWithValue ("@UserID", userId)
sqlCmd.Paramete rs.AddWithValue ("@SortOrder ", sortOrder)
sqlCmd.Paramete rs.AddWithValue ("@OrderBy", orderBy)
sqlCmd.Paramete rs.AddWithValue ("@WhereClause" , whereClause)
Try
dr = sqlCmd.ExecuteR eader(CommandBe havior.CloseCon nection)
Catch ex As Exception
DispMessage("De termine Menus Error - " & ex.Message, MyPage)
StoreErrorMessa ge.StoreSystemE rrorMessage(con nString,
applicationId, "", "BuildMenus ", "GenericRoutine s.vb", ex.Message, "")
End Try
End If
If Not dr Is Nothing Then
' [rak] Dim MenuDoc As XmlDocument
While dr.Read
menuName.DataBi ndings.Add(Buil dSimpleMenuBind ing(dr.Item("So rtID"),
dr.Item("HLevel "), dr.Item("MenuNa me"), Convert.ToStrin g(dr.Item("Url" ))))
'[rak] BindMenuToXmlDo cument(MenuDoc, menuName, "menu/item")
End While
menuName.databi nd()
dr.Close()
End If
End Sub
Public Function BuildSimpleMenu Binding(ByVal XmlElementName As String,
ByVal Depth As Integer, ByVal TextField As String, ByVal NavigationUrlFi eld
As String) As MenuItemBinding
Dim MenuBinding As MenuItemBinding = New MenuItemBinding
MenuBinding.Dat aMember = XmlElementName
MenuBinding.Tex tField = TextField
MenuBinding.Nav igateUrlField = NavigationUrlFi eld
MenuBinding.Dep th = Depth
Return MenuBinding
End Function
Public Sub BindMenuToXmlDo cument(ByVal MenuDocument As XmlDocument,
ByRef MenuControl As System.Web.UI.W ebControls.Menu , ByVal XPath As String)
Dim MenuDataSource As XmlDataSource = New XmlDataSource()
MenuDataSource. Data = MenuDocument.Ou terXml
MenuDataSource. EnableCaching = False
MenuDataSource. XPath = XPath
MenuControl.Dat aSource = MenuDataSource
MenuControl.Dat aBind()
End Sub

Consider trying a custom sitemap provider that looks at the database instead
of a site map file. You can then control things however you desire.
As for the particular issues, I would set some breakpoints in the method
that binds and make sure you are actually grabbing the XML document. If you
are, then you have to dig deeper. If you are using Visual Studio 2008, you
can actually debug into the .NET assemblies and see what is going on there.
View source may also give you some hints.

Hi, I have a debugging problem!
I made a dynamic menu via js:
- onload the js scans for all spans with a special id, these spans
contain different sets of input controls (generated via ASP).
- the menu script gets its information via substrings of the ids and
takes it for menu caption. The menu will be generated then and put
into another span via innerHTML.

Hi.
I will do a dynamic menu for a asp.net app.. I don't know yet if how I will
get the data for populate this menu: from a sql server database, xml file or
what, but I know it will be dynamic any probably encapsulated in a control
(user or custom).
Someone have any logic code, samples, links for that?
Thanks

Does anyone know the best way to handle passing a dynamic menu
generated from a login from one asp.net page to another. Would it be
better to recreate the menu on each page? Save the menu as a string
into a session variable upon login? Any other way to do this I may be
missing?
This menu is part of an intranet. The user logs in, checks SQL
database for folder permissions, then scans web directories for all
folders which match permissions...

I am using the menu control in ASP.NET using VS2005. I want to change the
background color of the dynamic menu when the mouse hovers over that menu
item. This works fine when the background color style is included in the
DynamicHoverStyle tag. But when I am using a cssclass for the
DynamicHoverStyle, then this does not work. The background color does not
change to the color specified in the cssclass.

Hi All,
I have a Right to Left web page with asp.net 2.0 containing a horizontal menu.
The menu is right to left as the page.
The problem is the submenu items or the dynamic menu items are not aligned
right, so the menu has a bad shape.

Hello,
is there a way to menu control dynamically center itself horizontally on a
page?
I have placed a menu control in a panel control (no ajax) and would like it
to center itself. Depending on whose logged in, the menu, or course,
displays different items, sometimes just two items, other times many more.
If all menu items are displaying, centering is not a problem but when only
two items are displayed, the menu appears on the left hand...

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
