Hi,



What’s the best way to build a tree ?

1.

var tree=new dhtmlXTreeObject(document.getElementById(‘treeBox’),“100%”,“100%”,“ROOT”);

tree.setImagePath(“imgs/”);

var t = tree.insertNewChild(“ROOT”,“NODE1”,“New Node 1”,0,0,0,0,"");

t = tree.insertNewChild(“NODE1”,“NODE2”,“New”’’ Node 2",0,0,0,0,"");



2.

var tree=new dhtmlXTreeObject(document.getElementById(‘treeBox’),“100%”,“100%”,“ROOT”);

tree.setImagePath(“imgs/”);

tree.loadXMLString("");



In my first sample, all items are opened. I try to add value CLOSE in the optionString parameter but it does’nt work.

tree.insertNewChild(“ROOT”,“NODE1”,“New Node 1”,0,0,0,0,“CLOSE”);

How to do ?



Can I use performance methods like enableSmartRendering when I use insertNewItem method ?



Thanks

Basically the both approaces are correct, but second one a bit faster.


>>In my first sample, all items are opened
When items added one by one, component will automatically expand branches , can be changed by


tree.openOnItemAdded(false);
tree.insertNewChild(…



>>I use insertNewItem method
No, both smartXMLParsing and smartRendering will work only in case of loading from external source
