call show_contextmenu

[Zsolt Demi]

Dear Group!

Please help me, how to call the show_contextmenu from an onclick
event.

I have created the tree :
$j('#topic_tree_content_tree_container').jstree({
"core" : { "initially_open" : [ "topic_root" ] },

"themes" : {
"theme" : "<?php echo $theme;?>",
"dots" : true,
"icons" : true
},

"plugins":["themes","html_data", "crrm", "contextmenu"] });

I would like to show the context menu from a link - pointing to a tree
node :

<a href='javascript:void(0)'
onclick="$j('#topic_tree_content_tree_container').jstree('show_contextmenu(tree_node_1)');"
>Show Context Menu</a>

Please show me the right format, to call jstree function!
Thank you!

Best Regards
Zsolt

Try using:

$(tree_node_1).children('a').trigger('contextmenu');

Kindest regards,

thanks vakata, this way works, but display the context menu "at
node".
how to attach contextmenu position to an independant action button for
example?

Where would you like to show it? You can use the contextmenu plugin on non tree elements too if that is what you need - its not dependent of jstree. You can show it at a position (x,y) or at a node.

Kindest regards,

Can you please tell me how to set the position of the context menu 

function GoToProductListReservation(id) {

  

    var node = jQuery('#' + id);

    $(node).children('a').trigger('contextmenu');

    //jQuery('#coursetree').jstree('show_contextmenu', node);

}

 I am using the above method to show context menu on a button click ,
