Q: Utilizing the drop down web menu under Internet Explorer 7, it gives me a popup of “To help protect your security, Internet Explorer has restrictedthis webpage from running scripts or ActiveX controls that could access your computer. Click here for optons….
Is there a way to bypass this popup and IE recognize it as a valid script?
A: Please, see security preferences: IE/Tool/Internet OptionsMake sure that Active content is enabled.
You should check your Security Settings.
There is no way to enable these settings automatically.
Q: Doesn't this mean that I have to add this search engine code to all of my sites pages? If so this could be tedious when adding additional pages to a large site.Is this something I can adjust ...or make submenus were you can't see through them?
A: Unfortunately it is really so. You should paste search engine code onthe each page with the menu.
If you don't want to create your menu (and add search engine friendlycode) on each page, you can try to use frames, the menu has a cross-frame mode. Also you can use aserver-side script (php, asp, vb, etc.) to generate html pages fromtemplates on your server.
Q: We have a menu in its own dedicated table row on our website and the table row contains a background image. We want to know if we can make the background on your menu transparent so that you can see our table cell background through the menu.
We have tried using your option to put our image as your menu’s background, but then it repeats for all of the drop downs which we do not want.
We simply want the row of options to be transparent and all of the drop downs to be white.
Is this possible with your system and, if so, how would we go about making this work?
A: You can try to use these parameters:
var menuBackColor="transparent";
var itemBackColor=["transparent","#1665CB"];
Or, you can use Individual Item Styles and set images only for the main items.
Try that.
Q: Would it be possible at some point to introduce more font decoration options to the mouseover variables, I would like to add bold as a mouseover font decoration, but obviously this is not possible at the moment.
A: Unfortunately, Deluxe Menu doesn't have such a feature. You can onlyset it's color. You cannot set the font of menu item bold when selected.
You should addthe following code in your data file:
function changeFont(obj, over)
{
obj.style.fontWeight = over ? 'bold' : 'normal';
obj.style.fontSize = over ? '13px' : '12px'; // You can not use this line
}
var menuItems = [
