Recent Questions

Q: Is it possible that a menuitem of the js dropdown menu stays highlighted after clicking and loading the new html site?


A: The menu has only two states normal and mouseover. We'll try to add the pressed state in the future.

You can set a pressed item using Javascript API:

function dm_ext_setPressedItem (menuInd, submenuInd, itemInd, recursion)

Sets a current pressed item.
menuInd - index of a menu on a page, >= 0.
submenuInd - index of a submenu, >= 0.
itemInd - index of an item, >=0.
recursion = true/false - highlight parent items.

But notice, to use dm_ext_setPressedItem() you should know ID of selected item and subitem.
You can't get this ID after you reload your page. That is why you should write your own code on PHP.

You can also set the correct
  var pressedItem=1;
parameter on each html page.



Q: I have built a menu which will sit in a frame on the left hand side of the page.
When sub menus are selected they display in the same frame.
How do I make them appear over the adjoining frame?


A: Please, check you dm_init function. You should write it so:
dm_initFrame("frmSet", 1, 2, 1);

Q: I have published on a test page you can see herebelow a test with the javascript pull down menu.

With IE, it works fine, the menu is displayed over the flash animation.

With Firefox, the flash animation disappears and comes back if I mouve the mouse out of the menu.

I have read the FAQs, but I can not see any document on this. Can you help me in understanding and solving the problem ?

A: You should add opaque parameters to OBJECT and EMBED tags.

You can find more info on this issue here:

Q: One other question, how do you get the menu bar to highlight and stay on the page you are viewing rather than highlighting home the whole time.


A: You should set a pressed item using Javascript API:

function dm_ext_setPressedItem (menuInd, submenuInd, itemInd, recursion)

Sets a current pressed item.
menuInd - index of a menu on a page, >= 0.
submenuInd - index of a submenu, >= 0.
itemInd - index of an item, >=0.
recursion = true/false - highlight parent items.

But notice, to use dm_ext_setPressedItem() you should know ID of selected item and subitem.
You can't get this ID after you reload your page. That is why you should write your own code on PHP.
