2.0 Buttons by Web-Buttons.com v3.0.0

Javascript Menu. DHTML Menu.

  • Use a mouse to move a menu as a usual window. Also you can create the menu where each submenu can be "separated" from the menu (MS Office toolbar-like mode).
  • When the page is scrolled the menu remains visible. The menu can "float" along one or two coordinate axes.
  • There can be multilevel menus - create as many rows of the menu as necessary. Any submenu in its turn can include different number of columns.

Recent Questions

Q: I already found out the use of the pressedItem setting. However Iwas looking to be able to have a submenu in the html dropdown menu already expanded on pageload. Can you tell me if this is possible yet in any way ?

A: You can find the example here
http://deluxe-menu.com/highlighted-items-sample.html

Click on the following link:
Highlight "Product Info/Installation/Description of Files" item.

Use the following function to highlight items
function dm_ext_setPressedItem (menuInd, submenuInd, itemInd, recursion, parentOpen)
where parentOpen = true/false - open all submenus to show the selected item

Q: I am interested in Deluxe Tabs MAC Style.
However before I do I want to make sure that:

- I can change the buttons pictures on both the first row and the second row. There has to be a <img src=" " > tag in the code somewhere, correct?


- I can expand or diminish the number of buttons and links


- Also, I have a question: if I am on "Mac Tab 1" menu, and I click on "Mac Tab 2" menu without clicking on any of the links onthe second row, what is the page that I see? Do I see by default Link 2_1 or do I see some kind of generic page? In other words is there a "main" page for each tab menu and then you have the other pages which correspond to Link 2_1, Link 2_2, etc.?

- Is it possible to remember a visited sub-menu? For example I am on "Mac Tab 2/Link 2_3" and I go to "Mac Tab 4/Link 4_2" and then I come back to "Mac Tab 2". Can the main page for this "Mac Tab 2" be Link 2_3 which was my last visited link on that tab?


A: 1) No, there is no such tag - <img src=" " >

For the main items you should set such parameters:
bbeforeItemImage - left part of the item
bafterItemImage - right part of the item
bitemBackImage - center part of the item

in normal, mouseover and selected states.

And for the subitems (in MAC template) you should set onlybitemBackImage - the center part of the item.

Please, see the code of this template.

2) You can create any number of the buttons and links.

3) You can set links for main items and for the subitems.
For example:

  var bmenuItems =
[
["Mac Tab 1","http://deluxe-menu.com",,,,,,],
 ["|Link 1_1","http://apycom.com",,,,,,"0"],
 ["|Link 1_2","testlink.htm",,,,,,"0"],
 ["|Link 1_3","testlink.htm",,,,,,"0"],

So, if you click on "Mac Tab 1" you will go to http://deluxe-menu.com
And if you write so
["Mac Tab 1","",,,,,,],
no page will open.

4) This Tab menu can save pressed item automatically within1 page only. If you open another page, the menu can't remember presseditem. You should do that manually using Javascript and menu parameters(  var bselectedItem,   var bselectedSmItem) or using any server-sidescript (php, asp, etc.)


Q: I'm a having an issue with my dhtml dropdown menus poping-up behind a flash object on a page. The key to this issue is that the menus work perfectly in our non-secure (HTTP) development environment, but do not work correctly on our secure (HTTPS) beta environment. The code on the 2 environments is exactly the same, and the beta environment does work when viewed in HTTP. Both the flash object and the Deluxe-Menu are called using relative paths, not absolute paths.

Please let me know what additional information you need from me. I appreciate any help you can provide.

A: Check that you're using latest version of engine files - v3.3.

You should add "opaque" parameter for <object> and <embed> tags.

See, how you should install flash on your pages.
