Q: Is there anyway of selecting index location of the dhtml tab according to what webpage you are on ?
A: Deluxe Tabs doesn't support API functions which can return theselected tab aslo.
You can set "bselectedItem" and " var bselectedSmItem" parametersbased on your link before you call your data file.
For example, move " var bselectedItem" and " var bselectedSmItem" parametersfrom your data file to your code.
<TD vAlign=top align=left>
/* Select Tab */
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript1.2">
var bselectedItem=<?php echo $seltabs; ?>;
var bselectedSmItem=<?php echo $selsmtabs; ?&g5t;;
</script>
<SCRIPT src="data.js" type=text/javascript></SCRIPT>
</TD>
You should define seltabs and selsmtabs using server side script.
You can also set it on every page before you call data.js file, forexample:
<TD vAlign=top align=left>
/* Select Tab */
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript1.2">
var bselectedItem=4;
var bselectedSmItem=3;
</script>
<SCRIPT src="data.js" type=text/javascript>
</TD>

Set this parameter to 1 if you're using right-to-left direction of html page <HTML dir=rtl>. Q: I've purchased the mac style tabs. I've spent countless hours trying to get it to work, no luck so far. I've gotten jscript tabs to look okay on page, but links between pages do not work. I've even gotten them to work, but they were simple text menu's; not jscript tabs. But I haven't gotten the tabbed menu to work. Checked and tripled cheeked the instructions, still no luck.
I've uploaded the files to a test server.
There are four files cameron,carl,grace, and chantel; these are simple identical two column pages to test the links between tabs. NO LUCK. I'm about to give up on your program, can you please help.
A: You're using
var tabMode=0;
now. That means that you should use content DIV's ID instead of thelink.
If you want to open links you should write links in the following way:
["Cameron","link:cameron.html", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["Grace","link:grace.html", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["Carl","link:carl.html", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["Chantel","link:chantel.html", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],Q: I am able to create the simple navigation bar but can't seem to get it to work in Yahoo SiteBuilder.
A: Deluxe Menu wasn't developed as Yahoo SiteBuilder/Dreamweaver/Frontpage extension
and wedon't have plug-ins for it.
To install the menu into your html page:
1. create and save .js file with your menu parameters in Deluxe Tuner
(you can use "File/Save as/HTML" function).
You can enter any name you like, for example enter "menu".
So you'llhave menu.html, menu.js files and "menu.files" folder with all menu files.
2. open your .html page in Dreamweaver
3. Copy generated menu.js file and "menu.files/" folder in the same folderwith your index.html page.
4. Open generated menu.html in any text editor and copy several rows of code (<script> tags),
