Q: How can I add a separator to the expanding navigation bar using the dynamic functions?
It seems as though the only way to get a separator into the menu is by defining itbefore hand,
but the website I'm building will require me to reload themenus dinamically,
and I'm losing the ability to put separators on it.
A: You should add items using the following function:
function dm_ext_addItem (menuInd, submenuInd, iParams)
or
function dm_ext_addItemPos (menuInd, submenuInd, iParams, Pos)

Set the following parameter:
var dm_writeAll=1;
So, you should write:
dm_ext_addItem(0, 4, ["|-", "", "", "", "", "", "", ])
Q: I am evaluating your menu product - very nice! However, I am relatively new to HTML, though a long time software developer, just not HTML!
My question - is it possible to have the menu be in a table cell and have the menu resize based on the cell width, if the cell width is specified in percent (%).
For example, if I have a table and I have a first column that is set at 15% of the width of the table, can I insert a menu in that cell and have it fill the cell?
A: Try to set 100% width for the menu.
var menuWidth="100%";
Q: I am having a lot of trouble trying to get the menu to work properly. I want to make sure that I get it working before I make the licesning purchase.
The menu is to be CSS based but while I have the main menu somewhat in location, none of the settings are correct. Can you help?
A: See, the problem is that the script can't get css properties of the object if they are described in separate .css block (or file).
To get the value you should move .css style into style="POSITION: relative;" attribute.
Please, try to add your
css file -> inline css
Try to write so:
<DIV id=if-navbar style="POSITION: relative;">
Q: I am using javascript dropdown menu - Deluxe Menu 2.0 and have some problem with the doctype declaration.
Is there any need to classify a certain doctype in order to get the menu working correctly?
If we use the XML declaration (like this: "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">)
the padding and margin settings of the submenus get lost.
Are there any known solution to fix this?
A: Yes, it happens if you don't specify units in "px" for some dropdown menu parameters.
Please, try to write so:
var itemPadding="2px";
