Hi all,
I have a page in which I display a menu which is a table within a div
element. Each cell in the table is a menu item with an "onclick" event
handler assigned.
I want to make it so that whenever the user clicks outside of the menu, the
menu is hidden. The only way I can see of doing this is using the
"ondeactivate" event for the table/div, but whenever I handle this event it
swallows the "onclick" event for the menu items, rendering the menu useless.
Is there an easier way of doing this? Any help would be much appreciated.
Cheers,
Jamie

How do you propose the visitor knows the menu is there in the first place?
If the menu disappears, will they be able to get it back? Sounds to me at
this point it's only going to drive your visitors up a tree...

It's a context menu that displays when the user right-clicks on an icon. We
have limited real estate, so it was the best option...
