hi

Is it possible to create Menus in Webdynpro. We have a requirement where we would like to have menu kind of structure.

hi

It is not possible to develop menu based applications in WebDynpro. You can maybe use a Tab kind of structure.

You can also use the Tray UI element. You can add a popup to the Tray and add links and simulate something like a menu.

hi

I guess there is no other way. But if you want to use menus you will have to try the conventional java way using Menu class, but thats going outside webdynpro :).

but if that is what the requirement is then i guess you will have to use java.

I dont know if something is possible using PDK.

hi

You can see information in java sun site. But if you are in a webbased application then do you really require a Menu based navigation like conventional application programming.

Anyway if you require more information just let me know

Hi Reuben,

If it is static menu, then you can generate it using dhtml and you can use that in the PDK.

Hi,

As Armin mentioned menus are available in NW04. And it is very much in use.

One condition is tat it comes with the tray container.

You can add a pop up menu to the tray and add menuactionitem to it.

Actions can be specified for each menu item.This should be sufficient for all basic requirements

In NW 04, menu support is very limited, you have e.g. a simple menu on a Tray.

In later versions, menus will be available on a number of other UI elements, in tables, trees etc. Also nested menus will be supported including radio button and check box items.

Until then, you might consider building menu like structures from LinkToAction and LinkToURL elements.
