Recent Questions

Q: I want to change the background color of one of the menu items of the menu horizontal.If I understand correctly I go to INDIVIDUAL STYLES and should be able tochange the background color for one of the menu items there. Under item appearance I tried to change itemBackColor - but I can't seem to make it take affect (I tried clicking OK but its under the Style Names, so thats probably not it.

Please advise.

A: You should click "Edit Individual Styles" button.

On the 'Item Styles' tab click "Add style" button.

Set itemBackColor and click "OK" button.

Select the item you want to change the style for and assign new style for it. Go to Item Parameters window 'Item style' field.

  var itemStyles = [
["itemBackColor=#EB2999,#590937"], //style0
];

  var menuItems = [
["Home","testlink.html", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["Product Info","", "default.files/icon1.gif", "default.files/icon1o.gif", "", "", "0", "", "", "", "", ], //style0



Q: Could you also tell me where I should place the images I wish to use in the menu, eg arrows. When I select an image to use they are not appearing in the preview, or when I launch deluxe-menu.html?

A: Please, check images paths within data .js file.
For example, if you have data.js file here:

c:/website/data.js

and your images are stored here:

c:/website/images/

you should set image name so (for example):

  var arrowImageMain = ["images/arrow1.gif", "images/arrow2.gif"];

If you use Tuner, you should save data .js file before you'll selectimages. When you save .js file it means that you set a root directoryfor the project, so Tuner can make all selected images with relativepaths.



Q: I hope you have a instructions so we can install css menu in our website.

A: Unfortunately we don't have step by step tutorial yet.
We'll try to create it in the nearest time.

1. Create your Css menu in Deluxe Tuner.

When you open Deluxe Tuner you can click "File/New" and add items
and subitems using buttons "Add Item" and "Add Subitem" on the main window.
See the parameters for the menu on the main window.

More info about menu parameters you can find on our site
http://deluxe-menu.com/css-menu/parameters-info.html

2. You should install the menu on your page.
You can click, for example, File->Save Css Menu/Export HTML

So, you'll have folder with images and .css file ("deluxe-css-menu.files/" folder by default),
deluxe-css-menu.html file and deluxe-css-menu.js file with all menu parameters
(project file you need, if you want to modify your menu later,
there is no need to upload deluxe-css-menu.js on your server).

Open deluxe-css-menu.html file in any text editor and copy several rows of
code into your page (for example index.html page of your website).

Copy and paste several rows into your html page (index.html).

<head>
...
<link type="text/css" href="deluxe-css-menu.files/style.css" rel="stylesheet">
...
</head>

<body>
...
<!-- Deluxe Css Menu -->
<ul id="cssMenu">
<li><a href="testlink.html">Home</a></li>
<li><a href="#"><span>
<img class="def" src="deluxe-css-menu.files/icon1.gif"/>
<img class="over" src="deluxe-css-menu.files/icon1o.gif">Product Info</span>
<![if gt IE 6]></a><![endif]><!--[if lte IE 6]><table><tr><td><![endif]-->
<ul style="width:161px;">
....
</ul>
<!-- (c) 2009, Deluxe-Menu.com -->
...
</body>

You should also copy "deluxe-menu.files/" folder with all images and .css file
into the same folder with your index.html page.

More info about installation:
http://deluxe-menu.com/css-menu/installation-info.html

Try that.

Q: I also did not understand the difference between the "deluxe menu" and the "deluxe tree" software. Can you please send me a short description?

A: These are different menus.

Deluxe Tree is a tree view. Items in Deluxe Tree are expand/collapseon click.

Deluxe Menu is a cascade menu.
