context menu onclick function

I have something like the following:

                        menu=new dhtmlXMenuObject();
                        menu.renderAsContextMenu();
                        menu.loadXMLString('<menu width="100%" height="20" absolutePosition="auto" menuAlign="left" mode="popup" globalCss="contextMenu" globalSecondCss="contextMenu" globalTextCss="contextMenuItem" withoutImages="true"><item text="Add Header" height="25" width="25" id="add_header"/><item text="Add Footer" height="25" width="25" id="add_footer"/><item text="Restore Cell to Default" height="25" width="25" id="reset_cell"/><item text="Restore Row to Default" height="25" width="25" id="reset_row"/><item text="Delete Row" height="25" width="25" id="delete_row"/></menu>');
                                                            menu.attachEvent("onClick", function(id,zoneid){
                            alert("element "+id+" was clicked and zone "+zoneid+" was clicked");
                         });

The alert returns "element add_footer was clicked and zone false was clicked".

It says that onclick passes both parameters only in case of a Contextual Menu which is what I declared mine as.
Am I doing something wrong here? thanks in advance.


                        

Right,

zoneid is an id of context zone
context zone: http://dhtmlx.com/docs/products/dhtmlxMenu/samples/init/context_zones.html?un=1225382786000
You didn't assing any context zones to menu so you have such result. Behaviour is correct.

After I build my grid, I have the following code:

 

grids.enableContextMenu(menu);

menu.attachEvent("onClick", onMenuClick);

 

Still returns 'false' as second parameter, wonder why?

Problem confirmed. You can use

grids.contextID inside event to receive necessary info, or contact us directly at support@dhtlmx.com , we will provide update which will restore sending ID as second parameter of onclick method.
