module and can attach into form without canvas. But I cannot in
Forms 6i, I would like to call a menu module " FULL_SCREEN"

FULL_SCREEN,BAR,PULL_DOWN. I have used all these properties in

If I remember right, the MENU% tables were not part of Forms 3, but SQL*Menu. Check the FRM40_MNU% about menu info (only if you store forms in a database).

this is vas. I think you did it all may be try.
first create a menu and generates it and save it on same folder where the form stays.(respective folder) and compile both forms and menu in screen.and go to form name properties, change it to menu module --> menu name.mnx ,now save it
and try this
i hope it will work
check it and reply me back.this will work only in individual form and menu not in application
for application u ,there is a different way
thanks

Selected state issue with Menu Module V2

OK so I am getting an issue with Menu Module V2. I have used this before with success but this time I have hit a wall. I possed this question to BC live chat and they bugged out real quick.
The site in construction is http://www.urbanista.com.au
What is happening is that in the top right tools nav with the headings Home, Services, People, Contact Us using Menu Module V2. The Heading Services has a drop down and this is where the issue resides. Roll over any of these nav devices and you will see they will highlight orange. Home is already auto activating its Selcted state. Click on Contact Us and it will do the same. Roll over and click on Services and it appears to have worked. While in Services roll over the drop down again and you will see all links have activated the Selected state. This is the issue. If you view the code of the Services UL you will see only the Services state has been alocated the Slected state. See below:
<li id="Services" class="selected">
<a href="/services.htm">Services</a>
<ul>
<li id="tools-panningdev">
<li id="tools-housing">
<li id="tools-urban-renewal">
<li id="tools-project-management">
<li id="tools-feasibility-tools">
<li id="tools-governance-systems">
<li id="tools-communications">
<li id="tools-projects">
</ul>
</li>
The CSS that runs the nav is as follows:
ul.dropdown {
    font-weight: normal;
    font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
    font-style: normal;
    text-decoration: none;
    ul.dropdown li {
    background-color: transparent;
    color: #999;
    padding-top: 5px;
    padding-right: 10px;
    padding-bottom: 5px;
    padding-left: 10px;
    font-size: 12px;
    ul.dropdown li.hover,
    ul.dropdown li:hover {
    background-color: transparent;
    color: #FFF;
    ul.dropdown a:link,
    ul.dropdown a:visited    {
    color: #FFF;
    text-decoration: none;
    ul.dropdown a:hover        { color: #ff871f; }
    ul.dropdown a:active    {
    color: #b33b00;
    /* -- level mark -- */
    ul.dropdown ul {
    width: 150px;
    margin-top: 1px;
    background-image: url(/images/nav-transparency.png);
    background-repeat: repeat;
    color: #FFF;
    ul.dropdown ul li {
    font-weight: normal;
ul.dropdown li.selected a {
    color: #ff871f;
The last entry 'ul.dropdown li.selected a {color: #ff871f;}' is required in order to allocate a Slected State. Without it not Selected state is active and the links al remian white.
I have tried all manner of combinations and additonal tags with no success. Any suggestions greatly appreciated. I have not modified the default Javascript provided by BC in the system apart from allocating the required ulTagClass as specified. The Javascript in the supplied 'container.html' is as follows:
<script type="text/javascript" >
    // ids need to be unique per page, use different ones if you are including multiple menus in the same page
    // id of the nav tag, used above
    var divTagId = "myMenu1";
    // desired id for 1st <ul> tag
    var ulTagId = "myMenu1List";
    // desired class for 1st <ul> tag
    var ulTagClass = "dropdown dropdown-vertical";
    if ((null !== ulTagId) && ("" !== ulTagId)) {
        document.getElementById(divTagId).getElementsByTagName("ul")[0].setAttribute("id",ulTagId );
    if ((null !== ulTagClass) && ("" !== ulTagClass)) {
        document.getElementById(divTagId).getElementsByTagName("ul")[0].className = ulTagClass;
    // this will set the selected state
    if ((null !== ulTagId) && ("" !== ulTagId)) {
        catSetSelectedCSSItem(ulTagId);
</script>
Lastly this is one of the recomended navs by BC at the following address: http://lwis.net/free-css-drop-down-menu/
I have used these before with success but for the life of me this has stumped me big time.

Hi Matthew,
Having a super quick look at the code I'd say it's because of:
ul.dropdown li.selected a {
    color: #ff871f;
This affects all the child elements.
To override this down the line you could do something like:
ul.dropdown li.selected ul li a {
    color: #fff;
This would override the parent link color when selected.
You could probably then also add:
ul.dropdown li.selected ul li.selected a {
    color: #ff871f;
For the dropdown selected states.
That's a quick look though so don't quote me too much

Creating Menu module by creating the menu in database

Hi,
In the properties of a form when i attach a menu module thru file it's fine but i have to attach the menu module.thru database.I know we have to create the menu in the database. but cannot figure out how. Can anyone guide me how this can be done.
Sample code welcome.
Thanks

          I use xml to generate all input fields. But it's similar to database. xml is a kind of database.
          You can use customer tag to generate the form. Inside the tag class you select the form elements from table and construct the form. It's not difficult.
          If you use javascript take care the difference between the IE and Netscape. You better pass a browserType attribute and deal with them differently.
          You should create form element type carefully. Each element can have question type, name , text, validation class, preceding message and so on. Each element can have a toHtml method.
          for the jsp you can:
          tag to get connection.
          tag for the form
          tag for each form element.
          Hope this can give you some idea.

Right to left menu module

in windows2000 and form6i and codepage=ar8mswin1256 (arabic)
i use menu module in my main form ,but my menu cannot be right to left
i change the direction property but doesnot work.
if you know please help me.
thanks.

The ME edition can have an English user interface (or Arabic, Hebrew, French, and maybe others, I dunno).
In your shoes I'd buy World Tools from www.in-tools.com. I actually like Harbs' interface for RTL tools better than Adobe's.
It's possible to fake up Arabic tools in English ID in a variety of ways. Ellis suggests a good one. If you are handy with Javascript, all of the RTL text manipulation tools are available via scripting. If you find the ancient Thomas Phinney blog post from 2008 or thereabouts, when the World-Ready Composer was first introduced, all of those scripts still work.

Is it possible set programm menu module background color?

HY,
is it possible set programm menu module background color?
thanks

Hy,
thanks for your answer, but, if i understand well,
it's for individual menus and submenus (lower-level menus, displayed by default as vertical Lists of menu items) menu items
I am speaking about a main menu (the top-level menu, displayed by default as a horizontal strip)
And, when create a VA in menu module isn't possibile set color but only font.
I believe it need create VA in set_visual.....
Thanks again

Where Is the MAINMENU Defined in the "Menu Module" Property of MAINFORM

Hello Ya'll Gurus,
I am trying to locate both the MainMenu.mmx and it's source MainMenu.mmb files that is being executed in the application run time, but so far with no luck. I am desperately in need of your help, and the pressure is on...
I have found the following information in our environment and hopefully it will help in resolving my problem:
The following is the command that runs our application:
c:\orant\BIN\ifrun60.EXE C:\MMS\Production\mainform.fmx <userid>/<psswd>@mms
The following are the images of the property palettes for the MainForm and MainMenu forms:
Image for the mainform.fmb property palette:
!http://dot.state.ak.us/nreg/jtomasic/MainForm_Property_Palette.GIF!
Image for the mainmenu.mmb property palette:
!http://dot.state.ak.us/nreg/jtomasic/MainMenu_Property_Palette.GIF!
Please help me with the following questions:
Q1: Since "C:\MMS\Production\mainform.fmx" is included in the command line that runs our application and the "Menu Module" property of the "mainform.fmb" form is "MAINMENU", does it mean the "MAINMENU.mmx" is being executed through mainform.fmx when the application starts running?
Q2: If the answer to the above (Q1) question is yes, the 'MMS' defined in the Menu Filename is then not being used at all, correct? and where can I find the "MAINMENU" file specified in the "Menu Module" property of the "mainform.fmb" form?
Q3: The attached Libraries for the MAINFORM include HMMSHELP, MAINLIBR and MENULIBR. Are these libraries loaded to the MAINFORM dynamically or statically? BTW, the MENULIBR.pll is also attached to MAINLIBR.pll and what does that mean?
Q4: The 'Main Menu" property in the mainmenu.mmb form is defined as "MAIN_MENU" which ties the "MAINMENU" specified in the Menu Module property of the "mainform.fmb" form, correct?
Thanks in advance for any/all the help on this.

Q2: If the answer to the above (Q1) question is yes, the 'MMS' defined in the Menu Filename is then not being used at all, correct? and where can I find the "MAINMENU" file specified in the >"Menu Module" property of the "mainform.fmb" form?Looking at the onlinehelp, the property "Menu filename" may be used if the menu is stored in the database. As far as i know this is not possible since forms 6i (but i may be wrong here). If i'm right, the property is no longer important.
About finding the MAINMENU. I don't know where you find it. If you get no error it seems that it is somewhere on your machine. I would look into the directory C:\MMS\Production first. If its not where, check the FORMS60_PATH-variable and search in the directories listed in that variable.
Q1: Since "C:\MMS\Production\mainform.fmx" is included in the command line that runs our application and the "Menu Module" property of the "mainform.fmb" form is "MAINMENU", does it >mean the "MAINMENU.mmx" is being executed through mainform.fmx when the application starts running?If i'm right about Q2, the answer is Yes.
Q3: The attached Libraries for the MAINFORM include HMMSHELP, MAINLIBR and MENULIBR. Are these libraries loaded to the MAINFORM dynamically or statically? BTW, the MENULIBR.pll is >also attached to MAINLIBR.pll and what does that mean?What do you mean with dynamically or statically?
Q4: The 'Main Menu" property in the mainmenu.mmb form is defined as "MAIN_MENU" which ties the "MAINMENU" specified in the Menu Module property of the "mainform.fmb" form, >correct?I don't understand your question. Forms searches the menu-module which is specified in the property "Menu Module" and "starts showing" the menu which is defined as the "main menu"

Menu Module v2 support for selected state?

I can't figure out if menu module v2 supports the selected state. I remember reading somewhere that it was slated in the future, but it seems the file /ModuleTemplates/Menu/Default/container.html has accommodations for it.
A resource if so, would be highly appreciated.

By default I does, the JavaScript is there in the layouts and no different to the normal version in that regard.

How to place buttons instead of menu in menu module

hi iam having a form with menu module ,instead of menu i need buttons... can any one help me

hi
still i am not sure what do u want to achieve?
if u wanna create u r own toolbar then try something like this, but while creating buttons then u have to use codes too.
There is an easier way to get the "toolbar" you want to have.
1. Build a mmb with all the functions you want to have both in the menu and in the toolbar.
2. For each menuitem, you can define in the properties
- If it should be shown in the menu, then set "Visible In Menu" to Yes
- If it should be shon in the horizontal toolbar (or vertical toolbar), then set "Visible In Horizontal Menu Toolbar" ("Visible In Vertical Menu Toolbar") to Yes
- For showing an item in a toolbar, you will have to set the property "Icon Name" additionally to the name of an existing icon (the same way you do for buttons)
3. Compile and generate the menu
4. Build a form and attach your menu as Menu-Module in the properties of the form.sarah

Invoking procedure from menu module

How can I invoke procedure that is part of Form module from menu module which is attached to it.
When I reference it with:
procedure_name;
I receive:
Error 201
Identifier procedure_name must be declared.
null

It can be done by calling user-named trigger from menu:
Execute_Trigger('my_user_named_trigger');
and in Forms my_user_named_trigger is:
BEGIN
procedure_name;
END;
I hope this will help you
