context menu improvements

[Tiago Freitas Leal tfl netcabo pt]

1-In order to have different context menus on different elements, one must specify all targetNodeIds that a given context menu applies to. There is no way to specify a context menu for class(es). We end up having an enormous list of IDs for each context menu.

2-There is no way to specify a default context menu for all the page, except for elements that have a specific context menu (ids and classes).

Sounds like behaviors.

you can, afaics, specify a default menu for all elements by setting contextMenuForWindow="true", unless you mean something different

[Tiago Freitas Leal tfl netcabo pt]

setting contextMenuForWindow="true" overrides all other context menus including TreeContextMenu? (tested 01.05.2006 and 05.05.2006)

#1 can be done with dojo.query and it's returned NodeList?. Might be nice to make the interface nicer though, like passing the dojo.query pattern directly to the widget

#2 is worth looking at.

#2 is working too, see ​http://download.dojotoolkit.org/release-1.2.1/dojo-release-1.2.1/dijit/tests/test_Menu.html. (Push the "create programmatic menu" button and then see the special menu in the <div> above the <button>.)
