Q: I have the following problem. I've set target parameter to "_self".
But my html files still opens in a new window.


A: Please, check the following parameters:
  var itemTarget="_self"; //default target

You can set target parameter for each item.

See menuItems parameter:

  var menuItems =
[
    ["Home","testlink.html","icon.gif","iconover.gif","Home Tip",target,"1"],
     ["|Our Products","testlink.html","icon1.gif","icon2.gif","Our Products Tip","_self",,"0"],
];

Try that.


Q: Hi, I was wondering if there is a way to disable the dhtml pull down menu links on a page. (I am creating a site where, in a certain mode, the page is in preview and I don't want the links to work).

Is this possible?

I can run this function across my other <A> tags (which sets them all to the current page), but it doesn't reach into the deluxe menu.

for(i=0;i document.links[i].href = "<?php echo(getURL($_SERVER["REQUEST_URI"]));?>>";
document.links[i].target = "_self";
}

A: To disable your dhtml pull down menu items you should set the following parameter to disable all items:

  var itemTarget="_";

Or you can disable items individually.

["Home","testlink.html", "", "", "", "_", "", "", "", "", "", ], //disabled
["Product Info","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
 ["|Features","testlink.html", "", "", "", "_", "", "", "", "", "", ], //disabled
 ["|Installation","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],

You can also use function dm_ext_changeItem (menuInd, submenuInd, itemInd, iParams)
function to disable items on-the-fly, for example:

dm_ext_changeItem (0, 2, 3, ["", "", "", "", "", "_", "", "", ""]);


Q: The first is that for some reason my item separator image will not show. I have tried everything.. and no matter what I do the image will not show. I designed a graphic that is 2 pixels high and is the width of the total menu. The first problem is that the graphic wont show at all.. and I do not know why. Secondly, I am now thinking that I would like to use the separator graphic on all levels of the menu.. but this creates a another issue.. as the width of the submenus varies based on the length of the text displayed. How then can I have a separator image work in the submenus?


A: Try to write you Item Styles so:
  var itemStyles = [
["itemBorderWidth=1","itemBorderStyle=solid,solid","itemBorderColor=#D7F5FE,#FFFFFF",
"fontColor=#A0A0A0,#A0A0A0","fontDecoration=none,none"],
["itemBackColor=#6DD0FE,#00ACFC","itemBorderWidth=1","itemBorderStyle=solid,solid",
"itemBorderColor=#6DD0FE,#FFFFFF"],
];

See the normal item border color.

You didn't paste separator into your menuItems.
["-",],


Q: I am working in a Hispanic area, and need to be able to utilize specialcharacters
in titles in for navigation menus.
However, those are appearing distorted on my website.

A: Actually you can use any letters in the menu.

Please, check that you've set "Tools/Use utf8 encode".

When you save your data file in UTF8 you should use the same encoding on our html page.

So you should write:

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">

If you don't want to use UTF-8 encode on your page you should turn off
"Tools/Use utf8 encode" property, save your data file and manually
change your letters in any text editor.
