Question

jump between cftreeitems

Hi

I need a way to jump between cftreeitems with a JS function

My treeitem href will be a javascript:jumpTo(id) type function.

But I have no idea how to make the tree expand to the right node.

I am using cf8 with format type HTML cf forms. I am using a CFLoop to build my tree items, not a Bind statement.

Can anyone give me an example of how to accomplish this?

Thanks in advance.

    I am not a heavy cftree user. But it uses the YUI library.  So your function could probably grab the desired "node" from the cftree and call node.expand(). Then grab the parent node (ie node.parent property) and expand it. Continue walking up the tree, expanding each parent, until you hit the root node.

    var tree = ColdFusion.Tree.getTreeObject('yourTree');

    var node = tree.getNodeBy...(...); // by property or index

    while (node != null && !node.isRoot()) {

         node.expand();

         node = node.parent;

    }
