Q: I am conisdering purchasing your menu generator product, however I have a question that is very important to me.

How can I add a separator to the dhtml menu examples using the dynamic functions? It seems as though the only way to get a separator into the menu is by defining it before hand, but the website I'm building will require me to reload the menus dinamically, and I'm losing the ability to put separators on it.

If there's a workaround for it, or if there's a chance that you can give me a prototype function that exposes that functionality, that would be acceptable as well.

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)

Find more info:
http://deluxe-menu.com/functions-info.html

Set the following parameter:
  var dm_writeAll=1;

So, you should write:
dm_ext_addItem(0, 4,  ["|-", "", "", "", "", "", "", ])


Q: I played with it and I got the tabs java script horizontal menu to work. but having problems with them:

1. I want the tabs to open when you mouse over them, not when you click. Is it possible to do this?

2. I want the tabs to close when your mouse leave them. Can I do this?

3. It keeps saying "Incorrect key" when you click on them. Is it possible to fix them?

A: No, unfortunately it is not possible in Deluxe Tabs.

But you can use Deluxe Menu to create such java script horizontal menu.

To create such menu you should set the following parameters:

  var smOrientation=1; //horizontal orientation of submenus
  var subMenuAlign="pleft"; //submenu position (left align)
  var smHidePause=-1; //your submenus won't be hidden till you click orscroll the page.

"Incorrect Key" message means that you didn't paste your reg. key into data.js filewith your menu.

You should paste your key parameter into .js file where your java script horizontal menuparameters (vars) and items (  var bmenuItems) are placed.You should paste the following code at the beginning of the file:

/*
Deluxe Menu Data File
Created by Deluxe Tuner v3.2
http://deluxe-menu.com
*/

  var key="XXXXXX";

// -- Deluxe Tuner Style Names

Where XXXXX the key from your license message.
Try to clear also browser cache.

Notice your key will work on registered domain only. It won't work onlocal machine.



Q: I'm trying out your cool dropdown menu code.

I'm trying to rebuild my menu like this one

http://deluxe-menu.com/data-templates/vista-style-3-03-template-sample.html

I have a problem. In my case, I have some really long labels and some short ones. In some cases my text is larger than the button (see attachment). In your example all the buttons have the same width. Is it possible to have a Vista styled menu with different width for the buttons?

A: See images in Vista Templates have the fixed width and height (92 x 21).

If you want to change items' width/height you should change images.

btn_cyan.gif
btn_cyan2.gif

You can do it in any graph editor, for example in Adobe PhotoShop.

You should also change items width in your Individual Item Style.

  var itemStyles = [
["itemWidth=92px","itemBorderWidth=0","fontStyle=normal 11pxTahoma","fontColor=#FFFFFF,#FFFFFF","itemBackImage=btn_cyan.gif,btn_cyan2.gif"],
];

You can do it in Deluxe Tuner.



Q: I downloaded a trial version of your software and I did so because your description says it can utilize a database.

I have tried to modify a menu with my database, but with no success.

If you can shed some light on this, I would greatly appreciate it.

Once I can successfully alter a menu with a database, then I will purchase this software.


A: You can find the example with PHP here:
