Allright, got a little problem.
Im trying to make a icon in the menu for a program called "MobyExplorer".
And i wrote it the same way i have Walkman in my menu and that works nice.

This is how Walkman code is in menu.ml:
Code:
<!-- Desktop Element 1 -->

<element lock="icons" id="Mediaplayer">
<label type="name"> <text>Walkman</text> </label>
<icon pos="unselected" source="file">Icon1_unselected.png</icon>
<icon pos="selected" source="file">Icon1_selected.png</icon>
<icon pos="shortcut" source="internal">RN_SHORTCUT_LIST_DB_ICN</icon>
<link type="java" javasuitename="KD Player" javasuitevendor="Knyzhov Dmitry" javasuitepoint="KDPlayer"/>
</element>


Now i write this but change some things like "Desktop Element 9", icons, name and "javasuitename" to MobyExplorer" and "javasuitevendor" to "Bermin Software" and "javasuitepoint" to "MobyExplorer".

I get the right name of the icon and the right appearence but nothing happends when i click it... some input here?

Use This :

<link type="java" javasuitename="MobyExplorer" javasuitevendor="Bermin Software" javasuitepoint="ftpmid.FtpMid"/>

Dont forget to install the jar file :)

If i want to put another program i have installed on the menu, do it put "ftpmid.FtpMid" in that code as well?

2 ways , maybe there is more

1 - read the manifest file in the jar file (/META-INF/MANIFEST.MF) with the editor. you will get something like this :

Manifest-Version: 1.0
Ant-Version: Apache Ant 1.6.2
Created-By: 1.4.2_10-b02 (Sun Microsystems Inc.)
MIDlet-1: MobyExplorer,/folder_html.png,ftpmid.FtpMid
MIDlet-Permissions-Opt: javax.microedition.io.Connector.socket, javax.
microedition.io.Connector.file.write, javax.microedition.io.Connector
.file.read, javax.microedition.io.Connector.serversocket, javax.micro
edition.io.Connector.ssl
MobyEncodingDefault: UTF-8#ISO-8859-1
MIDlet-Vendor: Bermin Software
.....


2 - use a program to edit the SE menu. (a sure and simple way )
i did upload it for you here :
[LINK]
http://www.cshare.de/file/367[....]52e06fa6bade/MenuEdit.exe.html
[/link]

once you open the Menu Editor.

+ left, select where you want to link your java program. for example: "Mediaplayer"
+ rights, 1rst tab = Properties ---> Link
+select Type(Java) from the combobox then click on java button and select your jar file, then click Apply
+ now you can see the 3 text fields Name, Vendor and Point. you can also click on the 3rd tab = XML Source Viewer to see the <link ..... tag>.


good luck.

Younes.

Hi all,

I wonder if any one can help.

I got a PSP menu for my k810. The thing is, it was made for the k800, so track id was missing. I got the original k810 menu, and copied the track id text, and pasted it in the psp menu ml.

I sort of new it would'nt work and I was right lol.

How can I add track id back to the entertainment menu?
