Q: It's simply not saving the state. Clicking the items on the menu is inconsistent. Sometimes it saves sometimes not.
It seems to be a lot worse in this area.
A: See, Tree Menu saves it's state using cookies.
But it can't re-save the same cookie file from different folders.
For example, if the tree from "website/page.html" saves it's state,the menu from "website/content2/page.html" can't read this state andit creates it's own state. The problem is that it's a standardfeature of browsers and Javascript can't control that.
Q: Having purchased Deluxe Menu and I am having a problem with the simple javascript menu I have created. The menu works fine when I view the html page generated by Deluxe Tuner but when I put it into my own html page the submenus are appearing above the simple javascript menu and not below as required. How do i stop this from happening please?
A: Try to adjust the following parameter:
var subMenuVAlign="top";
or
var subMenuVAlign="bottom";
Q: I can't get the hand pointer to work with my dhtml menu scripts in firefox and IE. I know that firefox requires the itemCursor to be set to pointer, but it doesn't work for all links in my menus. I believe that this worked in past version of deluxe-menu, but stopped working somewhere along the way. To recreate this, create a horizontal menu, and set the pressedItem to be one of the menu items and set the itemCursor to be "pointer". Then, you'll see that the pressed item's pointer is the finger icon, but the other menu items are just the arrow. Is there something I'm doing wrong or a setting that will fix this?
A: No, the reason is not in the pressed item.
See when you set:
var itemCursor="pointer";
your cursor will be a hand for the items with url only. For the itemswithout url it will be default arrow.
Q: I just need to know if there is a way of establishing the width at "runtime" in the javascript dynamic menu so that my frame in my frameset can be widened accordingly.
A: There are no special parameters for menu dimensions.
But you can use submenu IDs. For example, top-menu has ID"dmXXXm0"
Where XXX - menu index. So, first menu on the page has ID "dm0m0".
So, you can determine menu dimensions so:
document.getElementById('dm0m0').offsetWidth
document.getElementById('dm0m0').offsetHeight
You can also use Javascript API functions to take submenu IDs.
