Simple menu framework

You can provide menu feeds in JSON format instead of XML format. The operations can then parse the JSON feed without requiring the XML parsing support in the Dojo toolkit.

  • Client-side framework for simple menus
    You can enable simple menus in the client with four modules.
  • Server-side framework
    A plug-in receives HTTP requests for specific menus from a client and responds with the menu feed in JSON format. The response is marked as content type application/JSON.
  • Changing menu item visibility
    Whether the menu items are visible is controlled in a layered way by client-side JavaScript and markup. The default value for visibility, if not specified, is Boolean true.
  • Menu styles
    You can vary the appearance of the items in menus that are delivered through the JSON menu framework.
