[jsmenu-codedev] Changelog 2002-01-17

[Morten W. <war...@on...>]

fixed bug #503595, that a sub menu which is set as expanded doesn't
also expand the sub's parent items.  also did the rest of the work
needed to get the IE6 back-button bug finally fixed.  introduced
another two bugs: linked .js-files currently do not work in IE5, IE6
and Mozilla, and also that Mozilla doesn't use the user-defined
colors, fonts, etc.  that part of the code is currently IE-centric
until I have found out how to create a dynamic inline style sheet in
Mozilla.  changelog for today therefore is:

2001-01-17:
 - the IE6 back-button bug is no more, since the initial document now is
   created only through dynamically inserting HTML elements.  the current
   code contains a few challenges though, like how to insert the linked
   script element and the right-click prevention code.  currently broken
   are:
   - linked .js-file
   - user-defined colour, font, etc
     (since they rely on an inline style sheet)
   current code is very rough, cleaning is needed, but it works.
 - removed the test for isExpanded and instead added an if()-check to the
   parentNode-adding for()-loop, so that if any submenu item is expanded
   its parent element (which contains the submenu we iterate over) is
   expanded.  this correctly fixes bug 503595, the previous patch didn't.

2001-01-16:
 - added a test for isExpanded and a quick while() loop to fix bug 503595
   so that an expanded submenu also expands its parent items.
