Description

This zimlet will match the words lab, user or remodel and display a tool tip. On mouse right-click, a menu is presented. Each menu item will launch a website.

The Zimlet ZIP Package contains the Zimlet Definition File and a JavaScript file. The two menu items are defined using <menuItem>. The a zimlet menuitems.js JavaScript file is included with <include>menuitems.js</include>. The zimlet Handler Object is defined with <handlerObject>com_zimbra_menuitemsjsHandlerObject</handlerObject>.

When a menu item is selected, the zimlet Handler Object menuItemSelected(itemId) method is called and passes the menu item id, as specified in the definition file (either "SOME_MENU_ITEM_ID1" or "SOME_MENU_ITEM_ID2").
