Resolution: Invalid
Affects Version/s: 1.7.1

Description

Currently the menuPopup component has to be placed to its closest parent component. Placing it somewhere else on the page causes the following exception:

SystemError java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Could not find the MenuPopup

In some cases it might be useful to place the component somewhere else on the page or even to separate it on a template page. The component should still be referenced via its id attribute.

placing the menuPopup somewhere else on the page causes the following exception (see attached test case):

All you have to do is add the appropriate number of colons before the menuPopup's id. In this case, I believe it would be 4.

...
<ice:panelGroup style="display: inline" menuPopup="::::popupLayer">
...
<ice:menuPopup id="popupLayer">
...

For example, I made a change to the component showcase to mimic the attached WAR. Using Firebug, I found the panelGroup's rendered DIV's id, and the menuPopup's rendered DIV's id, which are, respectively:
iceform:tree:n-2-0:j_id197
iceform:mrkmnu

So, we start with two colons, because that's the special escape sequence to tell findComponent to search upwards. If the menuPopup had been a peer of the panelGroup, then its DIV's id would have been "iceform:tree:n-2-0:mrkmnu". But since I located it just inside the form, it's two levels up. So that's two more colons, for a total of four.
