function onMenuItemClick(p_sType, p_aArgs, p_oValue) {
     // Set project title
     var projectName = this.cfg.getProperty("text");
}

 

Does that help?

Subject: [ydn-javascript] MenuButton - how to get value of the selected item

Hello, 

Is there way to retrieve a value of the selected item in the event handler "onMenuItemClick" ? Please see the code below that was taken from the examples at YUI page. 

// "click" event handler for each item in the Button's menu
function onMenuItemClick(p_sType, p_aArgs, p_oItem) {
oMenuButton4.set("label", p_oItem.cfg.getProperty("text"));
 // there is no property value in the config object 

 alert(p_oItem.cfg.getProperty("value"));
}
// Create an array of YAHOO.widget.MenuItem configuration properties
var aMenuButton4Menu = [
{ text: "one", value: 1, onclick: { fn: onMenuItemClick } },
{ text: "two", value: 2, onclick: { fn: onMenuItemClick } },
{ text: "three", value: 3, onclick: { fn: onMenuItemClick } }
];
/*
Instantiate a Menu Button using the array of YAHOO.widget.MenuItem configuration properties as the value for the "menu" configuration attribute.
*/
var oMenuButton4 = new YAHOO.widget.Button({ type: "menu", label: "one", name: "mymenubutton",
menu: aMenuButton4Menu, container: "menubuttonsfromjavascript" });
