Start Menu for 2.0 Desktop

[mxracer]

@mxracer, just out of curiosity, are you experiencing any DOM leakage in 2.0 in IE6/7 as put up by @valera in this thread?
(his example references the ext-2.0 playpen which i'm inclined to believe hasn't been updated for some time so the leakage might not be a problem anymore, but nonetheless...)

here's a direct link to a flash video @valera put up illustrating the DOM leakage:

I haven't tested for DOM leakage.

I have finished my Scrollable Taskbar. I'll upload it to my demo when I have time and post a link here.

One thing that I came across when using Ext's menu items is that the menu is closed when sub-menus are clicked. I have an XML file that defines my menus and their attributes, including handler functions. If there isn't a handler assigned (like in the case of submenus items) then I use the default handler, which is simply a 'noClose' function.

noClose: function() {
	return false;
},

Simple solution to what I view as a problem.

Your work looks good. Keep it up!

Thanks Para, I've added this.

Very nice job!
I like the Scrollable Taskbar also...

Whether or not Safari is a targeted browser, I found a small bug.

When you resize either the browser window or the drag handle between start button and the taskbar list, the scrollable area gets locked into a smaller position so if you were to maximize the browser window (not the app window) the taskbar is clipped somewhat.

Minor problem, but just offering my observation.

Great extension nonetheless...

Thanks for the alert. I don't have Safari and didn't know this. I've only been testing in Firefox 2, IE 7, and Opera 9.

Update

Ok I have downloaded Safari 3 for Windows and have hopefully fixed the bug. Please let me know if you find anything else.

Thanks.
