Menus and Menu Commands

receiveArguments()

Description

Processes any arguments passed from a menu item or from the 

dw.runCommand() 

function. 

If it is a dynamic menu item, it processes the dynamic menu item ID.

Arguments

■

If it is a dynamic menu item, the unique ID that the 

getDynamicContents()

 function 

specifies is the only argument. Otherwise, if the 

arguments

 attribute is defined for a 

menuitem

 tag, the value of that attribute passes to the 

receiveArguments()

 function 

(and to the 

, and 

 

functions) as one or more arguments. The 

arguments

 attribute is useful for distinguishing 

between two menu items that call the same menu command.

Returns

Dreamweaver expects nothing.

Example

function receiveArguments()
{

var styleName = arguments[0];
if (styleName == "(None)")

dw.getDocumentDOM('document').applyCSSStyle('','');

else

dw.getDocumentDOM('document').applyCSSStyle('',styleName);

}
