functional context menu

[smitheroo]

Hi,

I've created a right click context menu and I'm wondering if anyone knows how to add an onclick event to the menu items (I'm trying to show and hide content with an onclick callin a seperate show/hide script).

I think the code below is the right place to play with the functionality of making the links useful, rather than just displaying an alert message.

    var OnClick = function(Sender, EventArgs)
    {
        switch(EventArgs.CommandName)
        {
        case 'Release':
            alert('Text: ' + EventArgs.Text);
            break;
        case 'Save':
            alert('Text: ' + EventArgs.Text);
            break;
        case 'Update':
            alert('Text: ' + EventArgs.Text);
            break;
        case 'Cancel':
           alert('Text: ' + EventArgs.Text);
           break;

        }

the whole code is from:

Assuming you have a pointer to the object in question, you can do:

el.onclick = func;

Hope this helps,
Dan

Thanks for your response Dan.

I'm not quite sure how that fits into the snippet of code, but at least I can google that line of code for an example.
