NLSTREE PROFESSIONAL
Advanced Javascript Tree Control

  • Incremental loading (load on demand). Extremely useful when dealing with large amount of nodes. You can for example initially load the first level nodes and then when user select a node, a request is sent to server to load all its child nodes. The request can be submitted through a hidden frame or other mechanism and the response will updates the tree. This feature greatly improve your application performance since you don't need to load the entire tree and the state still remain.

    NlsTree provides examples to load tree using AJAX (hidden frame and XHTMLHttpRequest).
  • Render on demand. With this feature enabled, the tree render tree nodes when necessary (expanded). This is client side performance optimization in addition to Incremental Loading. Render on demand allows you to load large tree very fast.
  • Load Tree from HTML Structure (UL/LI). You can use your favorite HTML authoring tool to create the structure and then with minimal Javacript code to convert it to tree view. The HTML must follows specific format. With this feature, javascript skills is not required to implements the tree.
  • Editable mode. This feature is very useful when you used the tree as configuration or data gathering tools. Just simply click on a node twice and a text box will show up. This behavoiur is exactly the same as the behaviour of tree on Windows Explorer.
  • Multiple Selection. Multiple selection mode allow you to select multiple nodes using CTRL/SHIFT+Click.
  • Context Menu The tree comes with context menu plug in. You can define global context menu that apply for all nodes. You can also override the global context menu by defining node level context menu. You can put icon and separator in the context menu. The context menu is accessible by clicking mouse right button.

    NlsTree also support integration to AddObject NlsMenu Pro. With NlsMenu Pro, you can create multi level context menu. See NlsMenu Professional for detail.

  • Drag and Drop One of the most powerful feature in NLSTree is support for tree node drag and drop operation. You can rearrange and reorder tree's nodes by simple drag and drop operation! You can also drag and drop from a tree to another tree or other HTML element in a page. The drag and drop operation is customizeable. You can define you own event when drag and drop node.

    Auto scroll and auto expand make it easy when using drag and drop. When dragging node over a target node, wait for about 1 seconds, the target node will be expanded, also when dragging a node to top/bottom area of tree, the tree will scrolls automatically.



    NLSTree Drag and Drop Plug In

  • Single Node Expand Allow only one expanded node in a level. When you expand a node, the other nodes at the same level will be collapsed.
  • Single Click to Expand/Collapse Allow single click to expand and collapse node.
  • XML Output. You can output XML of the tree (including settings) and send it to server for processing. Included in the package, ASP and PHP example to load tree from database and XML !
  • XML Input. This feature allow you to build tree including settings/options from XML on client side (browser). It also supports adding nodes from XML. This feature only available on browsers that supports XML.
  • Checkbox support. When this feature is on, each tree node will have a checkbox. You can check or uncheck the checkbox. Combine this feature with XML output and editing mode, you can create a very powerful configuration or hierarchical data gathering tools.

    NlsTree Pro also supports checkboxes on leaf nodes only option.



    NLSTree supports checkboxes

  • Configurable icons. You can define your own sets of icons to work with the tree. The icon set is global and is applied to each node in the tree. You can override the icon set by specifying special icon for particular node or special node such as trash, my document or others. Changing the icons with your own icons means you have total control of the tree's look and feel.
  • Configurable styles. The style is configured through external css file. You can configure different style for parent nodes, child nodes, normal nodes and selected node. If you have more than one instances of the tree, you can configure different style for each tree.
  • Custom Individual Node Style. Custom style for special node. You can specify image, background image or text style to a specific node.



    Custom Node Style
