[Solved] Keep submenu visible and submit a form

[Marcel]

1) In addition to the OpenOnClick(true) option on a Menu, is there also a possibility to always keep a submenu visible? Regardles to where the user clicks on a page, except when the user clicks on another submenu (and then keep that submenu visible).

2) Is there a way to have multiple links in the menu that post a form back to the controller? In this example to mimic a Save, SaveAndClose and SaveAndNew menuitem.

1) Is still unresolved. I tried hooking to the onOpen event and stop event propagation but alas. Anyone?

2) I managed to hook the onSubmit, change the form url and submit the form. For anyone interested, here's the trick:

Razor view:

item.Add().Text("Save").SpriteCssClasses("save")
                    .LinkHtmlAttributes(new { @rel = "post" })
                    .Action("Edit", "Item", new { @id = Model.ItemID, saveAndClose = false, saveAndNew = false });
item.Add().Text("Save and Close").SpriteCssClasses("save-close")
                    .LinkHtmlAttributes(new { @rel = "post" })
                    .Action("Edit", "Item", new { @id = Model.ItemID, saveAndClose = true, saveAndNew = false });
item.Add().Text("Save and New").SpriteCssClasses("save-close")
                    .LinkHtmlAttributes(new { @rel = "post" })
                    .Action("Edit", "Item", new { @id = Model.ItemID, saveAndClose = false, saveAndNew = true});

Controller: 

[HttpPost]
        [LayoutDefinition("_EditableViewLayout")]
        public ActionResult Edit(int id, bool saveAndClose, bool saveAndNew, Item item)
        {
                //     magic...
        }

             
jQuery

function onSelect(e) {
            var link = $(e.item).find('a');

            if (link.attr('rel') == 'post')
            {
                $('form').attr('action', link.attr('href'));
                $('form').submit();

                e.preventDefault();
            }
        }

Hi,

If I only add Action in menu Item, anchor tag is not getting rendered in html.

Thanks,
