Hello Kostas,

Just 2 quick more questions.

1. Shall the modal window resize automatically based on the big image size?
2. can I also include dynamically some texts related to be image? For example title and description…
3. Is it possible to manage dynamically the overlay color of the modal?

Many thanks,
Paolo

Dear Paolo,

I am afraid that in order to do any of these, you will need to use the Modal Windows JavaScript API.

You can have a look at it here:

If you want more help let me know and I will send you an example.

I purchased an unlimited domain version the web API. We are coldfusion developers. I was hoping you would have some examples of coldfusion database integration that we could review to see what we are missing.

I have read though all documentation and the knowledge base without finding a successful solution.

Do you have any Coldfusion implementation coding examples?

Glenn

Dear Glenn,

I am afraid that we do not have any Coldfusion examples. However it should not be that much different than any other server-side language.

Did you see our VB/ASP/PHP example?

http://www.likno.com/addins/dhtml-menu-serverside-example.html

The main idea is to produce a specific JavaScript code that will create the menu. It does not matter which server-side language you choose to “write” these JavaScript commands!

Please have a look at the above example and if you need more help, let me know and also send me your existing ColdFusion code.

Kostas

Support Case Month: March 2013

I just seem to be able to get the Server Side api running with Dreamweaver cs5.5. I get the menu on screen, but under "Onderafdelingen" I am trying to get results from a recordset and I can't get/understand how to do this. I read the help files but didn't understand half of it. Also examples didn't really work for me. Please, help.

Hello,

I am afraid that the original API was not designed for responsive versions.

It is still possible to use it for responsive menus, but in this case you will have to add your extra items to the structure of each one of the responsive versions.

For example, if you want to add a submenu to “Onderafdelingen” and then add an extra item, first you need to know the ID of “Onderafdelingen”:

For example:

In your case, the “Onderafdelingen” item has id=”awm_I18”. The responsive version IDs will have an extra “rmX” like so:

awm_I18
awm_rm2I18
awm_rm3I18
awm_rm4I18

So then the code you need is:

subMenu = awm_I18.newGroup('style=sub_group_style')
subItem = subMenu.newItem('style=sub_item_style;text0=My New Item;url=myUrl.html');
subMenu = awm_rm2I18.newGroup('style=sub_group_style')
subItem = subMenu.newItem('style=sub_item_style;text0=My New Item;url=myUrl.html');
subMenu = awm_rm3I18.newGroup('style=sub_group_style')
subItem = subMenu.newItem('style=sub_item_style;text0=My New Item;url=myUrl.html');
subMenu = awm_rm4I18.newGroup('style=sub_group_style')
subItem = subMenu.newItem('style=sub_item_style;text0=My New Item;url=myUrl.html');

Dear Kostas,

Hope you are doing fine.

I have a question about modal builder. For an application I am making I need to show a modal while a form is submitted and files are uploading (modal for wait text) and then it should automatically close when the save is done. How do I do that? I mean is there any specific parameter I have to use??

Many thanks in advance,
Paolo

Dear Paolo,

You can do this through using the Modal API.

You can open the modal at any time calling it by name (as a JavaScript function), for example:

Modal_Window_1();

And you can close it by calling the project compile name, for example:

likno_modal_project.close();

Does the Server Side API work with OpenCart?

I noticed the Unlimited Server Side API being offered as a gift for free with purchase of All Web Menus Pro. I already have licenses to All Web Menus Pro, Button Maker and Photo Frame programs. It seems silly to me to buy just the API when I could purchase AWM and get it for free, but I already have it.

Thanks!
Judy

Dear Judy,

The Server Side API is a JavaScript API that allows you to generate menus with JavaScript Code. It requires that you do some manual coding and usually the user writes PHP or ASP code that “produces” the required JavaScript code for the menu.

I just want it to be clear that it is not something that will automatically connect to your database and create the menu for you.

You can see an example with step-by-step instructions here:

Thank you so much for the information. I am familiar with the term API, so I understand I'm taking on some coding and possibly some head banging

I want to incorporate the menu being used on a website with its corresponding WordPress Blog and OpenCart Storefront, so I believe this is the tool I will need.

Cheers and thanks again!
