I'm trying to implement a dynamic menu using CSS/DHTML/JavaScript. The
menu bar is implemented as hyperlinks so I can use the :hover :active
etc. pseudo-styles.
When moving from one item to another on the menu bar I want to
simulate the user clicking on the menu bar item they've just moved
onto, so the adjacent menu drops down automatically.
So I have something like this:
function MenuBarItemMous eover(menuBarIt em)
{
menuBarItem.cli ck();
}
to simulate the user clicking on the adjacent menu.
However it seems the previous menu bar item stays in the 'active'
state and the item that has been moved onto remains in the 'hover'
state.
The css styles are defined in the order: link, visited, hover, active,
and in any case, it works fine if you actually do a mouse click on a
different menu bar item. It seems the programmatic click is not the
same.
Is there anyway of forcing the previous link to 'normal' and the new
link to 'active' using JavaScript? Or is there some other way of
simulating a mouse click? 1 1693
It turns out the answer is very simple. ¡Hurrah!
You need to call focus() on the item that you wish to click, since
click() itself does not change the focus (on IE 6), and hence the
active status of the 2nd item doesn't change:
function MenuBarItemMous eover(menuBarIt em)
{
menuBarItem.foc us();
menuBarItem.cli ck();
}

I am writing a script where I need to use the system() function to call

Hello,
I have a question about casting a function pointer. Say I want to make

pointer from the 'actual/other modules' that takes arguments of type

In my actual code, I will code the function to take arguments of their
real types, then when I pass this pointer through an interface

This problem only exists in IE, due to UI restrictions I'm using a
href in an error label to bring up a modal popup. I'm using a callback
to filter a grid on the popup.
The problem:
The href has javascript:btn.click() basically, which in Firefox causes
a postback after it's clicked. IE works fine without posting back,
this is suppose to be an instant popup and the postback defeats the
whole purpose. Any ideas?

that way. And I want my page to remain intact as it involves some AJAX

I have tried to but cannot reproduce your issue on my side. From your

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
