Q: Hi, I was wondering if there is a way to disable the dhtml pull down menu links on a page. (I am creating a site where, in a certain mode, the page is in preview and I don't want the links to work).
Is this possible?
I can run this function across my other <A> tags (which sets them all to the current page), but it doesn't reach into the deluxe menu.
for(i=0;i document.links[i].href = "<?php echo(getURL($_SERVER["REQUEST_URI"]));?>>";
document.links[i].target = "_self";
}
A: To disable your dhtml pull down menu items you should set the following parameter to disable all items:
var itemTarget="_";
Or you can disable items individually.
["Home","testlink.html", "", "", "", "_", "", "", "", "", "", ], //disabled
["Product Info","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["|Features","testlink.html", "", "", "", "_", "", "", "", "", "", ], //disabled
["|Installation","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
You can also use function dm_ext_changeItem (menuInd, submenuInd, itemInd, iParams)
function to disable items on-the-fly, for example:
dm_ext_changeItem (0, 2, 3, ["", "", "", "", "", "_", "", "", ""]);
Q: I am trying to use Delux-menu for our project, I am not able to use dynamic features of drop down menu script. I will send the html file, where I am calling the java script.
I am getting the error dm_menu[mInd] has no properties.
A: You have one menu in your example, but you write:
function hide(vis) {
dm_ext_changeItemVisibility(1, 0, 2, vis);
That is mean that you want to hide item in the second drop down menu script.
You should write:
function hide(vis) {
dm_ext_changeItemVisibility(0, 0, 2, vis);
Q: Ok, please disregard my previous email, it was IE 8! I went back to IE 7 and everything is fine.
I do however got requests to speed up the javascript treeview action (of my 2 out of 2 customers thus far on your menus).
Is there a setting to make it go faster?
A: var tXPIterations=5;
You can also try to use AJAX feature. It will increase the loading speed.
Q: Hi there ... how do I add in the following javascript code so an exit pop doesn't go off:

A: Unfortunately, you can't assign onmouseover/onClick event to each item. However, you can achieve this by using standard html objects within items, for example:
var menuitems = [
["<div onClick='your_code_here'>item text</div>", "index.html"]
];
