<hr><a name="_details"></a><h2>Detailed Description</h2>
A widget that shows a menu of options. 
<p>
The WMenu widget offers menu navigation in conjunction with a <a class="el" href="classWt_1_1WStackedWidget.html" title="A container widget that stacks its widgets on top of each other.">WStackedWidget</a>, where different 'contents' are stacked upon each other. Each choice in the menu (which is implemented as a <a class="el" href="classWt_1_1WMenuItem.html" title="A single item in a menu.">WMenuItem</a>) corresponds to a tab in the contents stack. The contents stack may contain other items, and could be shared with other <a class="el" href="classWt_1_1WMenu.html" title="A widget that shows a menu of options.">WMenu</a> instances. (the old restriction of a dedicated contents stack has been removed since Wt 2.2.1).<p>
Usage example:<p>
<div class="fragment"><pre class="fragment"> <span class="comment">// create the stack where the contents will be located</span>
 <a class="code" href="classWt_1_1WStackedWidget.html" title="A container widget that stacks its widgets on top of each other.">Wt::WStackedWidget</a> *contents = <span class="keyword">new</span> <a class="code" href="classWt_1_1WStackedWidget.html" title="A container widget that stacks its widgets on top of each other.">Wt::WStackedWidget</a>(contentsParent);

 <span class="comment">// create a menu</span>
 <a class="code" href="classWt_1_1WMenu.html" title="A widget that shows a menu of options.">Wt::WMenu</a> *menu = <span class="keyword">new</span> <a class="code" href="classWt_1_1WMenu.html" title="A widget that shows a menu of options.">Wt::WMenu</a>(contents, <a class="code" href="namespaceWt.html#2a8d45559e16a0185bf61bfad0a67912f916b7ec24727db2d972f0770170c7f5" title="Vertical.">Wt::Vertical</a>, menuParent);

</pre></div><p>
After contruction, the first entry will be selected. At any time, it is possible to select a particular item using <a class="el" href="classWt_1_1WMenu.html#7bafc33564cb06d980d75e2f4d89f28d" title="Selects an item.">select()</a>.<p>
The WMenu implementation offers fine-grained control on how contents should be preloaded. By default, all contents is lazy-loaded, only when needed. To improve response time, an item may also be preloaded (using <a class="el" href="classWt_1_1WMenu.html#d7840197cc0caf0430792b9f4a0df60d" title="Adds an item.">addItem()</a>). In that case, the item will be loaded in the background, before its first use. In any case, once the contents corresponding to a menu item is loaded, subsequent navigation to it is handled entirely client-side.<p>
The WMenu may participate in the application's internal path, which lets menu items correspond to internal URLs, see <a class="el" href="classWt_1_1WMenu.html#e1807eba0b1002808dbec779d00a79dc" title="Enables internal paths for items.">setInternalPathEnabled()</a>.<p>
The layout of the menu may be Horizontal or Vertical. The look of the items may be defined through style sheets. The default <a class="el" href="classWt_1_1WMenuItem.html" title="A single item in a menu.">WMenuItem</a> implementation uses two style classes to distinguish between activated and inactivated menu items: <code>item</code> and <code>itemselected</code>. By using CSS nested selectors, a different style may be defined for items in a different menu.<p>
You may customize the rendering and behaviour of menu entries by specializing <a class="el" href="classWt_1_1WMenuItem.html" title="A single item in a menu.">WMenuItem</a>.<p>
<h3>CSS</h3>
<p>
Styling a menu will be different depending of the rendering mode (table, list). Conventionally, menus like this are styled as a list.<p>
You will want to differentiate between unselected and selected items based on the <code>item</code> and <code>itemselected</code> style classes. <div class="fragment"><pre class="fragment">.menu * .item {
  cursor: pointer; cursor: hand;
  color: <a class="code" href="group__style.html#gg9686ea88ce4db2c0a12ea84452f601330cb88ce2189a8986f24a4409498e490e" title="Color blue.">blue</a>;

Enables internal paths for items. 
<p>
The menu participates in the internal path by changing the internal path when an item has been selected, and listening for path changes to react to path selections. As a consequence this allows the user to bookmark the current menu selection and revisit it later, use back/forward buttons to navigate through history of visited menu items, and allows indexing of pages.<p>

Progresses to an Ajax-enabled widget. 
<p>
This method is called when the progressive bootstrap method is used, and support for AJAX has been detected. The default behavior will upgrade the widget's event handling to use AJAX instead of full page reloads, and propagate the call to its children.<p>
You may want to reimplement this method if you want to make changes to widget when AJAX is enabled. You should always call the base implementation.<p>
