<script>awmSelectedItem=x</script>
where x is the order of the Main Menu item you wish to be shown as selected.
By doing so, the selected item will be displayed with its [Mouse Click] state instead of its [Normal] state.
Example:
Let's assume you have the following menu and you want the "Downloads" item to be highlighted when you visit the downloads.html page:
Since the "Downloads" item is the 2nd item in the Main Menu, you just need to put the following code somewhere inside your downloads.html page:
<script>awmSelectedItem=2</script>
When you now visit the downloads.html page, all Main Menu items will be displayed at their [Normal] state except of the "Downloads" item which will be displayed at its [Mouse Click] state.
Notes:
- This feature applies only for the Main Menu items. You cannot use this feature to have a submenu item highlighted.
- The [Mouse Over] state will be displayed instead of the [Mouse Click] state if you have the "Ignore Mouse Click State" box checked inside the Tools->Compile Properties->Optimization tab.
Special note for multiple menus only:
If you have more than one menu in the same page, then you need to use the <script>awmSelectedItem=x</script> just before thmenu-linking sectione of all menus:
where,
x = the number of the selected item for the menu you want to have the highlighted option and
x = 0 for the rest of the menus.
Example of highlighting the 2nd item of menu2.js only:
<script>awmSelectedItem=0</script>
