Hi,
did someone already succeeded to load a xml file after attachMenu() method and calling LoadStruct() method in versions 400 and or 401 ?
neither this version :
common_menu = layout.cells("a").attachMenu();
common_menu.loadStruct("xml/COMMON_menu.xml", function({
alert("ok");
})
);
nor this one :
common_menu = layout.cells("a").attachMenu({
xml: "xml/COMMON_menu.xml",
onload: function(){
alert("ok");
}
});
return “ok” with versions 400 or 401 of dhtmlx.js
Thanks
the sample files do not seem to work either … (IE 10)
See : dhtmlxSuite_v401_std\samples\dhtmlxMenu\01_init\01_init_from_xml_file.html
Hi,
Did you open a page via “http://” (under web server) ?
Hi Alexandra,
yes I did.
Server : MS 2k3 + IIS 6.0
Clients : IE 10, FF 3.5
http:// MY_SERVER/dhtmlxSuite_v401_std/samples/dhtmlxMenu/01_init/01_init_from_xml_file.html
returns only a grey bar, without menu buttons…
idem with 02_init_from_json_file.html example.
The following work well :
03_init_from_html.html
04_init_from_script.html
Thanks
Hi
online demos works fine, live demo also. have you tried them?
dhtmlx.com/docs/products/dhtmlxMenu/index.shtml
dhtmlx.com/docs/products/dhtmlxM … attrs.html
please send us completed demo or link to support@dhtmlx.com
I’m having the same issue, I only get a blue bar (dhx_skyblue) using IE 10 & IE 8. None of the buttons are showing.
Hi Andrei,
Online demos works fine, yes. I deduce that it is not a problem with client versions.
I tested on Apache Platform all sample files worked fine.
The problem seems to be on win 2k3 / IIS 6 side.
Then, I analyzed some client-server exchanges.
According to developper toolkit (F12 in IE) the problem deals with the xml file loading with POST method (server returns a HTTP Error 405 ). It indicates the use of the Library XMLHttpRequest.
I anderstand I have to check my IIS 6.0 config.
But I still do not know what exactly … Mime types ? folder access rights ?
I tried a few tricks gleaned on the web, but without success …
Any idea ?
Remark : all works fine with dhtmlx 3.6 on the same server; only 4.0 do not work.
Thanks
Hi
in two words:
IIS required some extra config for POST
we will add option to select get or post method for load/loadStruct into 4.0.2
step-by-step confguration below
agree - too many actions for simple xml in a toolbar 
thanks for reading
The issue appears to be the major change from loadXML to loadStruct which has changed from a GET to a POST.
Unmentioned in the migration documentation, we got caught as well with the toolbar loaded but no buttons.
Had to make changes to the server so it responded to a local files POST and all was well.
I couldn’t find any method of loadStruct forcing to be a GET
download 4.0.2, as I mentioned above - we added ability to change
dhx4.ajax.method = “get”
Hi Andrei,
thanks a lot for your help.
I tested last week the configuration you advised for IIS.
It seems not to work well on 6.0 version, I crashed my IIS 
So I came back to the previous configuration.
I planned to update my server to win 2k12 with IIS 7.0; it will be easier to install new components… 
So a have a new question about menu 4.0.2 + window.dhx4.ajax.method = “get” :
If I do :
window.dhx4.ajax.method = "get";
common_menu = layout.cells("a").attachMenu({
xml: "xml/COMMON_menu.php",
onload: function(){
...
where COMMON_menu.php generate an usefull and custom xml,
nothing happen… 
If I copy the generated xml from COMMON_menu.php in a xml file and call it, all is ok.
xml extension seems mandatory … I can work around that …
But is it possible to take into account for 4.1?
again thank you
Hi
please make sure COMMON_menu.php have codelines like:
header("Content-Type: text/xml");if this will not help - please send us direct link or completed demo to support@dhtmlx.com
