JavaScript Menus

Exploring JavaScript Menus


Introduction
In JavaScript, a menu typically refers to a user interface component that
provides a list of options or choices for the user to select from. These
menus can be used for a wide range of purposes, such as navigation,
dropdown lists, context menus, and more. JavaScript is commonly used
to create and manipulate menus, making web applications more
interactive and user-friendly.
Importance of Menu
• Navigation: Menus provide users with a clear and structured way to
navigate through a website.
• User Experience: A well-designed menu enhances the overall user
experience.
• Information Hierarchy: Menus help establish the information
hierarchy on a website.
• SEO: Search engines like Google rely on the structure and content of
menus to understand the organization of a website
• Site Structure and Maintenance: Planning and designing menus
during the development phase help define a website's structure.

1. Creating a Pull Down Menu
• Creating a pull-down menu (also known as a dropdown menu) in
JavaScript involves defining a list of options that become visible when
a user interacts with a specific element, like a button or a select box.
Example of Pull Down Menu
<script>
function getSelectedItem()
{
var ele = document.getElementById("select");
var str = ele.options[ele.selectedIndex].value;
alert("The selected value is: " +str);
}
</script>
<body>
<select id="select">
<option value="C">C</option>
<option value="C++">C++</option>
<option value="Java">Java</option>
<option value="JavaScript">JavaScript</option>
</select>
<button onclick="getSelectedItem()">Get Selected Item </button>
</body>
2. Dynamically Changing the menu
• Dynamically changing a menu in JavaScript involves altering the
menu's content, structure, or appearance in response to user actions
or other events. This flexibility is often used to create interactive and
context-sensitive menus.
Example of Changing menu Dynamically
3. Validating Menu Selection
Validating menu selections in JavaScript is an important aspect of
ensuring that users make valid and appropriate choices within a menu.
Menu validation typically involves checking whether the selected
option is within an acceptable range or meets certain criteria.
Example of Validating Menu Selection
4. Floating Menu
A floating menu in JavaScript, often referred to as a "floating or sticky
navigation menu," is a UI element that remains visible on the screen as
the user scrolls down a webpage. It's a common web design technique
used to enhance user experience and improve navigation. The floating
menu typically "sticks" to the top of the browser viewport, ensuring
that important navigation options are easily accessible even when the
user has scrolled down a lengthy page.
Example of Floating Menu
5. Chain Select Menu
A chain select menu, also known as a cascading or dependent select
menu, is a dynamic user interface element in web development that
consists of a series of linked dropdown menus. The choices available in
each subsequent menu depend on the selection made in the previous
one. JavaScript is commonly used to implement the logic behind a
chain select menu.
Example of Chain Select Menu
6. Tab Menu
A tab menu in JavaScript is a common user interface element used to
organize and navigate through different sections or content within a
web page. It typically consists of a set of tabs or buttons, each
representing a specific category or content section. When a user clicks
on a tab, the associated content is displayed while hiding the others.
This allows users to switch between different sections of the web page
without navigating to a new URL or loading a new page.
Example of Tab Menu

7. Popup Menu
A popup menu in JavaScript, often referred to as a modal or a pop-up
dialog, is a UI element that appears on top of the main web page
content and temporarily interrupts the user's interaction with the
underlying page. Popup menus are commonly used to display
additional information, gather user input, or provide context-specific
actions without requiring the user to navigate to a new page or leave
the current task.
Example of Popup Menu

8. Sliding Menu
A sliding menu in JavaScript is a user interface component that allows
for the presentation of navigation options, content, or actions by
smoothly sliding or transitioning into view from a hidden or off-screen
position. This type of menu is commonly used in web applications to
provide easy access to various features, settings, or navigation links.
9. Highlighted Menu
A highlighted menu in JavaScript refers to a user interface element that
uses JavaScript to apply visual effects to menu items or options when
they are actively selected or interacted with. The purpose of a
highlighted menu is to provide clear visual feedback to users, indicating
which menu item is currently being considered or selected. JavaScript is
used to dynamically modify the appearance of menu items to create
this effect, making it more interactive and user-friendly.
10. Folding a Tree Menu
A folding tree menu in JavaScript is a user interface component
commonly used for displaying hierarchical data, such as a file system
or an organized list of items. This menu allows users to expand or
collapse branches of the tree structure to navigate through the content
more efficiently.

11. Context Menu
A context menu is a user interface feature that provides a list of
relevant actions or options when a user interacts with an element using
a specific action, such as right-clicking with a mouse or long-pressing
on a touch screen. Context menus are context-sensitive, meaning they
offer choices specific to the current context, and they are commonly
used in software applications to streamline user interactions, enhance
efficiency, and provide quick access to context-specific actions.

Final Output:
12. Scrollable Menu
A scrollable menu in JavaScript is a user interface element that allows
users to navigate through a list of items, particularly when the list
exceeds the available visible space. It's designed to provide an efficient
way to display and access a large number of items within a constrained
area. The menu includes a scrollbar that enables users to scroll up and
down to see and select items that are not immediately visible. This
feature is commonly used in applications and websites to manage long
lists or menus efficiently.
Final Output:
13. SideBar Menu
A sidebar menu in JavaScript is a user interface component that presents a
vertical or horizontal list of navigation options typically placed on the side of
a web page or application. It offers a compact and accessible way to navigate
between different sections or features of a website or app. Users can interact
with the sidebar menu to quickly access content or perform actions, making
it a common and user-friendly design choice for enhancing navigation and
user experience. JavaScript is often used to add interactivity, such as opening
and closing the menu, handling item selections, and creating dynamic
content.

Protecting Web Pages
1. Hiding Your Code
The source code of the webpage can be viewed by clicking right mouse
button on the webpage. Anyone who visits to the webpage can simply
view the source code of the webpage. Viewing source code by users is
not safe. We can hide the source code of the webpage by disabling the
right mouse click on webpage. We write the code to disable the right
mouse button in JavaScript. Hiding source code is protecting the source
code by viewing other users.
2. Disabling the Right Mouse Button
The source code of the webpage of some websites can be viewed by
right clicking and selecting the option 'view source'. By viewing source
code we can find out how the webpage is created, anyone can use that
source code to create their own webpage. It is not secure to display a
source code to users. We can disable the right click of mouse button.
Thus the user cannot see the source code of the webpage.
3. Concealing Email Address
Concealing email address means to hide email address from
unauthorized user. If we are working with the emailaddress and we
don't want to show email address to the user, then we can hide the
email address by using JavaScript.
Frameworks Of JavaScript and
its Application
