Page sideview menu help...

Hi John:
You can call the public function

Code:

toggle()

immediately after the initialization code to open the menu automatically when the page loads:

Code:

sideviewmenu.toggle('open')

Hi,

Thank you for the reply !.

When I use function immediately after the initialization code , Get " Error: Object doesn't support property or method 'toggle' "

Below is the code and order I call it , its like the menu doesn't exist when "toggle" is called from the script in the heading . Am I calling the toggle in the correct place ?

Thank you for looking at this

regards,

John.

Ah yes I forgot to account for some intricacies in the script. Anyhow, easiest way to accomplish this is just to use the below slightly modified .js version of the script. Then inside your initialization code, make use of the new "state" option to set the initial state of the menu to be open:

Code:

jQuery(function(){ // on DOM Load
	sideviewmenu({ // call sideviewmenu() function
		menuid: 'sideviewmenu',
		state: 'close',
		onopenclose:function(state){ // state is either "open" or "closed"
			// custom code
		}
	})
	
})
