Q: I want to use
function dtreet_ext_userRightClick(itemID) {
alert(itemID[0]); ???
return false;
}
But how do I refer to tmenuItems array using itemID in the javascript?
For example, if I want to pop a link text, should I use alert(itemID[0]))?
It doesn't work.
Please let me know how I refer to the menu.
A: You should use the following function to get item's info:
dtreet_ext_getItemParams (0, itemID);
For example:
<script type="text/javascript">
function dtreet_ext_userRightClick(itemID)
{ var link = [];
link = dtreet_ext_getItemParams (0, itemID);
//Returns item parameters in the array:
// [item_id, index_within_submenu, parentID, level, has_child, child_count, expanded, text, link, target, tip, align, icons, hidden, disabled, visible]
alert(link[7]);
return false;
}
</script>
Q: My office-colleague gilles petremand just bought your "deluxe menu" and all-in-all it looks great!!!!
What we don't manage to do is to create a moving java menu sample based on.
Is this only possible with the "ms office toolbar-like mode" 'coz we'd like to use the image based menue template and change it to a moving one - POSSIBLE?!?
A: To create a movable or floatable menu you should set severalparameters in your data file only.
See more info here:
http://deluxe-menu.com/movable-menu-sample.html
To create movable menu you should set the following parameters:
//--- Movable Menu
var movable=1;
var moveWidth=12;
var moveHeight=20;
var moveColor="#AA0000";
var moveImage="movepic2x20.gif";
var moveCursor="move";
var smMovable=1;
var closeBtnW=13;
var closeBtnH=16;
var closeBtn="closebtn.gif";

To create floatable menu you should set the following parameters:
//--- Floatable Menu
var floatable=1;
var floatIterations=6;
var floatableX=1;
var floatableY=1;
Q: I need to have a horizontal menu and a vertical menu on the same page (obviously with different content). I did this as two separate "projects" in the tuner and gave them different names so that the files wouldn't step on each other. However, it looks like only the second menu works, though it does show both. I assume it has something to do with the variable dmWorkPath overriding the first value with the second. How can I have two menus each with different content on the same HTML page?
A: You can use as many menus as you want on the one page.
But you should call dmWorkPath parameter and dmenu.js file only once.
<!-- Deluxe Menu -->
<noscript><a href="http://deluxe-menu.com">Javascript Menu by Deluxe-Menu.com</a></noscript>
<script type="text/javascript"> var dmWorkPath = "menudir/";</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="menudir/dmenu.js"></script>

Q: Can I use data from a SQL server using ASP for drop down menu code?
A: You may generate a menu from a database or XML using any server-side script, e.g., PHP, ASP, VB, etc.
However, these scripts don't work inside of Javascript .js files,
so, you should move parameters of a menu from a .js file into an html-page, e.g.:
<!-- Deluxe Menu -->
<noscript><a href="http://deluxe-menu.com">Javascript Menu by Deluxe-Menu.com</a></noscript>
<script type="text/javascript"> var dmWorkPath = "menudir/";</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="menudir/dmenu.js"></script>
<!-- (c) 2006, http://deluxe-menu.com -->
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript1.2">
// and describe parameters of a menu
var parameter1=value1;
var parameter2=value2;
etc.
var menuItems = [
// here you generate items using server-side scripts (php, asp, vb, etc.)
];
Unfortunately we don't have examples with ASP and SQL.
The example of the menu working with PHP/MYSQL you can find here:
