- AJAX menu loading - loads web menu data from the server "on-the-fly". - Items with icons - Transition #14 - "fade out" effect - 85% transparency for sub menus - Submenus dropdown on mouseover - Cross-frame support - menus work on frameset-based pages - Inactive/Disabled items - Submenus go over all page objects
Apply any font of any color, size and font decoration you need. Use any available type, color and thickness of a menu's frame. Choose any color for submenus and items backgrounds.
Set the size of the menu in percent, pixels, or other units. This menu may have a relative (it can be inserted into the table, for example) or absolute position .
Specify various values for spacing and padding for the whole menu and for each separate submenu.
You can specify a time for delays in showing or hiding of a submenu. Use special prefixes for image paths and links to make paths absolute.
Create separators using your own pictures, size and alignment.
Q: When I add links to the java pop up menu items, the mouse icon does not change to the usual pointer on hover. Any ideas?
A: You should set the following java pop up menu parameter:
var itemCursor="pointer";
Q: I am having a problem trying to figure out how to generate a link to a popup window. I looked at what you have on your site but it is not clear to me.
A:You can show the popup window when you hover, click or mouseout on some elements on your page. For example you've added an image in your html page. You should specify the ID for it, for example:
<p><img id="open_popup" border="0" src="images/submenu-bg.gif" width="170" height="29"></p> In the Deluxe Tuner you should enter 'open_popup' object ID in the onMouseOver, onClick or onMouseOut fields.
Actually you can assign id to any object on your page manually. You should specify ID's - id="xxxx" for <a>, <div>, <img> ... tags.
Or you want to open a popup onMouseover, onClick or onMouseout on a link.
So, you should create a link (you can also use other object) on your page and set id="" for it, forexample:
In Deluxe Tuner you should set: onMouseOver - over onMouseOut - out onClick - link
If you want to show the popup when your page loads you should leave these fields empty: onMouseOver:"", onMouseOut:"", onClick:"", Q: I am using Javascript Menu. Deluxe Menu. v1.12 How can I upgrade to v.2.0?

var keystrokes = 0; var dm_focus = 1; var dm_actKey = 113;
var dynamic = 0; var smHideOnClick = 1; var itemAlignTop = 'left'; var smSmartScroll = 1;
var dmAJAX = 0; var dmAJAXCount = 30; var dmRTL = 0; var dmObjectsCheck = 0; var menuBackRepeat = "repeat"; var menuHeight = ""; var transDuration2 = 200;
If one of the variables doesn't exist - add it at the beginning of the file.

Q: Is it possible for a navigation bar item to have an associated "target"? What I mean is I'd like to be able to open the page in a new window, so I'd need to specify the href as well as "target=_new" (in HTML anyway).
A:You can set target parameter for all items: var itemTarget="_blank";
Where main - is the name of the main middle frame where you want to open the link.
or for each item individually: ["Home","testlink.html", "", "", "", "_blank", "", "", "", "", "", ],
