Slide open menu onload - Slashdot's Menu

1) Script name: Slashdot's Menu
2) Script URL: http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex1/slashdot.htm

I think the slashdot menu is quite cool, and I am intending to use it on my website if i can get it to do what I actually want. Can someone figure out a way to make the menu slide open (from closed) on page load.....and (you guess it!) return to closed stage when page is not being viewed. I know this may look impossible but I might get lucky is what I think !!

I don't think that sounds possible. The problem arises with:

The reason it stays open is because of cookies.
Set the variable:

Code:

myMenu.remember = true;

to false.
It shouldn't store the cookies now, thus making it close on page exit.

Thanks.......how do I get it to slide open on page load ?

Add this:

Code:

myMenu.expandAll();

to your code.

You need to replace myMenu with your one.

Hello and thanks alot for this cool menu. I have a problem with the menu when i try to add an image map(created with fireworks) to my web page with the dsmenu loaded.The image map is working correcly but the dsmenu won't.All the css of the menu is correct, the only thing is that the menu won't collapse or open.It stays static.Here is the code from the image map.
Javascript

Code:

function MM_preloadImages() { //v3.0
  var d=document; if(d.images){ if(!d.MM_p) d.MM_p=new Array();
    var i,j=d.MM_p.length,a=MM_preloadImages.arguments; for(i=0; i<a.length; i++)
    if (a[i].indexOf("#")!=0){ d.MM_p[j]=new Image; d.MM_p[j++].src=a[i];}}
}

function MM_swapImgRestore() { //v3.0
  var i,x,a=document.MM_sr; for(i=0;a&&i<a.length&&(x=a[i])&&x.oSrc;i++) x.src=x.oSrc;
}

function MM_findObj(n, d) { //v4.01
  var p,i,x;  if(!d) d=document; if((p=n.indexOf("?"))>0&&parent.frames.length) {
    d=parent.frames[n.substring(p+1)].document; n=n.substring(0,p);}
  if(!(x=d[n])&&d.all) x=d.all[n]; for (i=0;!x&&i<d.forms.length;i++) x=d.forms[i][n];
  for(i=0;!x&&d.layers&&i<d.layers.length;i++) x=MM_findObj(n,d.layers[i].document);
  if(!x && d.getElementById) x=d.getElementById(n); return x;
}

function MM_swapImage() { //v3.0
  var i,j=0,x,a=MM_swapImage.arguments; document.MM_sr=new Array; for(i=0;i<(a.length-2);i+=3)
   if ((x=MM_findObj(a[i]))!=null){document.MM_sr[j++]=x; if(!x.oSrc) x.oSrc=x.src; x.src=a[i+2];}
}
</script>
