Problem with onClick on Menu Item in CRM 3.0 (and 4.0?)

Hi... I'm trying to catch a click on a menu item with the following
code:

var menuApplyrule =
document.getElementById('_MIonActionMenuClickapplyrule10001');
menuApplyrule.onClick = function()
{
alert("onClick!!")

}

I have also tried with

document.getElementById('_MIonActionMenuClickapplyrule10001').onclick
= function()
.... and so on

The code is included in the onLoad event on the CRM Form. But it
does'nt work!

How do I catch a click on a menu item in CRM?

Try this:

var applyRule = "_MIonActionMenuClickapplyrule10001";
var mnuItem = document.getElementById(applyRule);

// Click Interception Code
if(mnuItem != null)
{
document.all._MIonActionMenuClickapplyrule10001.onclick =
function()
{
//put your code here
alert("OnClick");
}
}

Thank you for your time Dodd...

It does'nt work, propaply because the element allready has an action:
<TR action=3D"onActionMenuClick('applyrule', 10001)"
id=3D"_MIonActionMenuClickapplyrule10001">

I need to check a checkbox, and if checked, I need to disable the Menu
Item, so it cant be clicked.... I have tried changing innerHTML on the
element but without luck. I'm not able to overwrite it (the same with
innerText)

How do I disable or set visibility =3D 'hidden' to a Menu Item in
runtime?

I still need to set the value of the checkbox BEFORE
action=3D"onActionMenuClick('applyrule', 10001)" is fired...

I tried with mnuItem.addEventListener("click", modifyText, false);
without result... modifyText is not called...

How do I add som func BEFORE the action-code is called??

THANKS!

Try this:

// OnLoad event code:
var checkBox = crmForm.all.new_disablemenubutton.DataValue;
var applyRule = "_MIonActionMenuClickapplyrule10001";
var mnuItem = document.getElementById(applyRule);
if(checkBox == true)
{
mnuItem.style.display='none';
}
else
{
mnuItem.style.display='';
}

// To handle hiding the button unless the checkbox is checked
var eventHandler = function()
{
switch(crmForm.all.new_disablemenubutton.DataValue)
{
case true:
mnuItem.style.display='';
break;
case false:
mnuItem.style.display='';
break;
}
}
crmForm.all.new_disablemenubutton.onclick = eventHandler;

This way, if the user checks the checkbox, the Menu Item is hidden, if
un-checked, it is displayed. The OnLoad keeps it from re-appearing
when the record is saved or refreshed.

THANKS once again Dodd!

Your code works fine, but I need to set the checkbox when the user
clicks on the Menu. The checkbox is read-only, it must be checked when
the user clicks on the mnuItem

The problem is that it all ready has a action: <TR
action=3D"onActionMenuClick('applyrule', 10001)"
id=3D"_MIonActionMenuClickapplyrule10001">

I need to add an eventhandler which registers the menu click, sets the
checkbox =3D true and mnuItem.style.display =3D 'none' AND it must
continue with the action all ready made by MS.... How do I do that?
Thank you...
