Q: We’ve recently purchased your java dynamic menu. How can we put a border around the menu, but not the title? It doesn’t appear to be an easy way to do this using the javascript data file.
A: To set border around the whole menu you should set the followingparameters:
var menuBorderColor="#C0AF62";
var menuBorderWidth=1;
Use Deluxe Tuner to create your menu.
Q: Some menu entries may be disabled and clicking on them should produce predefined javascript alert message?
A: To create disabled items you should set "_" symbol in the targetparameter of the menuItems.
If the target is "_" the item is disabled.
You can assign a font color for all disabled items using the following menu parameter:
var fontColorDisabled = "#AAAAAA";
You can write a javascript code instead of an item link:
["item text", "javascript:alert('Hello World')", , , ,"_",]
That's all.
Q: I am unable to see any separators when working with Deluxe Menu. I’ve looked at other templates and don’t see where they are implemented. Am I missing something? Thanks!
A: Please, see the following parameters:
//------- Separators -------
//--- Separators
var separatorImage="";
var separatorWidth="5";
var separatorHeight="100%";
var separatorAlignment="right";
var separatorVImage="images/public/separator.gif";
var separatorVWidth="3";
var separatorVHeight="100%";
var separatorPadding="";
You should set a separator in the menuItems, for example:
var menuItems = [
["Home","index.cfm", , , , , , , , ],
["-"],
["About Us","about.cfm", , , , , , , , ],
];
Try that.
Q: In IE7 I see the deluxe-menu.com link on the top and no horizontal menu items on my page.
In Firefox it will work fine.
Can you help me to get the Solution?
A: Your browser has JavaScript option disabled.
It means that no one JavaScript element can be run.
You should to enable JavaScript in IE:
Tools -> Internet Options -> Security -> Custom level... -> Scripting -> Active Scripting = Enable
There is no way to enable these preferences automatically, in othercase there are no reasons to create security preferences.
You can use search engine friendly code, so you'll see all yourlinks (for the main items and submenus) when your security settings in IE doesn't allow Javascript.

<div id="dmlinks">

<a href="http://deluxe-tree.com">menu_item_text2</a>
...etc.
</div>
To generate such a code use Deluxe Tuner application.
You can find this GUI in the trial package.
Run Tuner, load your horizontal menu and click Tools/Generate SE-friendly Code (F3).
