DHTMLXMenu Reload

hi Team,

I have a Layout and I have attached a Menu with Layout using a XMl string return by a Web service, but on click on one menu Item I need to Load the menu again as My XML string is rolesbased and on click on menuy Item Role is gettig changed and webservice is returing diffrent XMLstring, but I am not able to attach this string.
When I am truing to do so either Original keeps there or Menu disappers...


Please help me in resolving the same:


Small chunk of my code here:

var COPMenu = window.COPMenu || {};
COPMenu = function() {

function onClick(id, zoneId, casState) {
if ((id == "m10-1") || (id.indexOf("md1-")!=-1)) {
MainMenu = null
COPMenu.initMainMenu();
COPMenu.hideMenuItems();

}
}

/** @private */
function success(result) {
MainMenu.loadXMLString(result);
COPMenu.hideMenuItems();
}

/** @private */
function failure() {

}

// public methods
/** @scope COPMenu */
return {
/** Initialize the main (top) menu */
initMainMenu: function() {

MainMenu = Layout1.attachMenu();
MainMenu.setImagePath(imgPathMenu);
MainMenu.setIconsPath(imgMenuIconPath);
COPMenu.getMainMenu();
MainMenu.attachEvent("onClick", onClick);
GUITools.LogMessage('MainMenu Initialized', 1);
},

/**
* Gets the main menu data either from a static xml file or from the WCF service
*/
getMainMenu: function() {
if (isStaticData) {
MainMenu.loadXML(xmlLoanMainMenu,COPMenu.hideMenuItems);
}
else {
var obj = new GUIServices.GUIService();
obj.GetMainMenu(success, failure);
}
},

/**
* Function to hide menu items based on Dashboard / Loan Mode
*/
hideMenuItems : function(){
COPMenu.hide("m2");
COPMenu.hide("m3");
COPMenu.hide("m4");
COPMenu.hide("m5");
COPMenu.hide("m6");
COPMenu.hide("m10-2");
},

/**
* Function to show menu items based on Dashboard / Loan Mode
*/
showMenuItems : function(){
COPMenu.show("m2");
COPMenu.show("m3");
COPMenu.show("m4");
COPMenu.show("m5");
COPMenu.show("m6");
},

/** Hides a main (top) menu Item
* @param id ID of the Menu Item that is to be hidden */
hide: function(id) {
MainMenu.hideItem(id);
GUITools.LogMessage('MainMenu Item Hidden', 1);
},

/** Shows a main (top) menu Item
* @param id ID of the Menu Item that is to be shown */
show: function(id) {
MainMenu.showItem(id);
GUITools.LogMessage('MainMenu Item Shown', 1);
},

/** Disables a main (top) menu Item
* @param id ID of the Menu Item that is to be disabled */
disable: function(id) {
MainMenu.setItemDisabled(id);
GUITools.LogMessage('MainMenu Item Disabled', 1);
},

/** Enables a main (top) menu Item
* @param id ID of the Menu Item that is to be enabled */
enable: function(id) {
MainMenu.setItemEnabled(id);
GUITools.LogMessage('MainMenu Item Enabled', 1);
}
};
} ();

but we are using 2.1 and these options are not available here..

clearAll method is the following:

dhtmlXMenuObject.prototype.clearAll = function() {

    for (var a in this.itemPull) {

       if (this.itemPull[a]["parent"] == this.idPrefix+this.topId) {
          this.removeItem(String(a).replace(this.idPrefix,""));
      }
   }
   this._isInited = false;

}

Try to add it to the page with menu to use it. 

Hi Alex,

When I added this function(clearAll) in my DHTMLXMenu.js and called this function from:

 

/** @private */

}

its giving me attached error:
