menu and submenu

[evaj]

Hi!

This is my first post.

I'm working with jquery and easyui and I have a doubt. I want to create a menu and submenu from javascript. This is my source code:

Code:

$("body").append("<div id='d0' class='easyui-menu' style='width:120px;'></div>");
$("#d0").menu("appendItem",{text:"one"});
$("#d0").menu("appendItem",{text:"two"});
$("#d0").menu("appendItem",{text:"three"});
var item = $("#d0").menu("findItem", "three");
$("#d0").menu("appendItem", {parent: item.target, text: "three.one"});
$("#d0").menu('show');

However the submenu is not showed when I put the cursor on item "three".

Also I tried to create a menu with html sentences in jquery:

Code:

$("body").append("<div id='d0' class='easyui-menu' style='width:120px;'></div>");
$("#d0").append("<div>one</div>");
$("#d0").append("<div>two</div>");
$("#d0").append("<div><span>three</span><div style='width:150px'><div>three.one</div></div></div>");
var item = $("#d0").menu("findItem", "three");
$("#d0").menu("appendItem", {parent: item.target, text: "three.two"});
$("#d0").menu("show");

With the same result as above.

So, how can I make a menu and submenus programatically?

Thank you in advance.

Regards.

Calling 'appendItem' method to append sub menu to an empty parent menu is invalid in current version. Your second code fragment is missing a statement to create the menu. Try this code:

Code:

$("body").append("<div id='d0' class='easyui-menu' style='width:120px;'></div>");
$("#d0").append("<div>one</div>");
$("#d0").append("<div>two</div>");
$("#d0").append("<div><span>three</span><div style='width:150px'><div>three.one</div></div></div>");
$("#d0").menu();  // to create the menu
var item = $("#d0").menu("findItem", "three");
$("#d0").menu("appendItem", {parent: item.target, text: "three.two"});
$("#d0").menu("show");

Hi

I'm very delighted with your solution. Only one line of code and the menu and submenu is working as I expected.

Thank you very much.
