public class SelectorMenuBar

The SelectorMenuBar is a TransformationBean™ that generates the appropriate HTML 4.0 and JavaScript for creating a Selector MenuBar. The MenuBar Transformation Bean contains Menus which contain SelectorMenuItems. A MenuBar can have a type of SELECTOR_EXPAND or SELECTOR_EXTERNAL.

The SelectorMenuBar is one of several TransformationBeans™ that rely on a set of style classes that are used by default when generating the resulting markup language. For more information on style sheets and the default style classes that apply to this TransformationBean™, refer to the AppDev Studio Developer Site. You'll find a useful reference document entitled Cascading Style Sheets, Images, and TransformationBeans™ as well as the TransformationBeans™ Style Sheet Reference.

The SelectorMenuBar is one of several TransformationBeans™ that rely on JavaScript to provide some of its functionality. These JavaScript files are including automatically by the tbean. See JavaScriptIncludeHandler for more information about how these files are included and how to customize this behavior. The SelectorMenuBar uses the following JavaScript files:

sas_menubar.js

Note that the toString() method on this class calls the write method, which may have undesirable side effects. See BaseTransformation.toString() for more information. Debuggers often use toString() to show the value of a variable, and this may cause unexpected behavior while debugging
