Javascript Menu. DHTML Menu.

  • Use a mouse to move a menu as a usual window. Also you can create the menu where each submenu can be "separated" from the menu (MS Office toolbar-like mode).
  • When the page is scrolled the menu remains visible. The menu can "float" along one or two coordinate axes.
  • There can be multilevel menus - create as many rows of the menu as necessary. Any submenu in its turn can include different number of columns.

Q: I am in the final stages of testing and need some advice and help.

I have two problems I am trying to address.

1) Arrows on dropdown menu select.

2) Load time.

Please notice, I have to use absolute paths for the dropdown menu select to work.

1) I can't get the arrows to show, so I tried to add the code for images in the first bold sentence below.

2) I tried to add the second line for absolute paths for links to increase load time in the second bold sentence. It appears that the load time is increased by about 3 seconds and that the menu is the last to load, even though I have tried to have this as the first html to load.

Neither one of my commands appear to work.

This site has over 10,000,000 items on it, and I can't wait to get this up and running. Your program is the perfect solution for anybody with a website.

A: 1) Now you have:

  var arrowImageMain=["mainmenu.files/arrv_blue_2.gif","mainmenu.files/arrv_white_2.gif"];
  var arrowImageSub=["mainmenu.files/arr_blue_2.gif","mainmenu.files/arr_white_2.gif"];

You should set your arrows in the following way:

  var arrowImageMain=["arrv_blue_2.gif","arrv_white_2.gif"];
  var arrowImageSub=["arr_blue_2.gif","arr_white_2.gif"];

2) Your menu is very large. I advise you to us AJAX like technology.

http://deluxe-menu.com/ajax-technology-menu-sample.html

You can also try the following things:

move all <script> calls into <head>, but delete dm_init() function from mainmenu.js file -- move them instead offiles calls, i.e.:

<head>
<script src=mainmenu.js>
...
</head>

...

<div><script>dm_init();</script></div>

It this case data will be loaded when <head> will load, but after thatdropdown menu select must be shown quickly.
Let me know about results.



Q: I created a test page with your product. I have a frame page consisting of a header and content.
The drop down menus are in the header and cross nicely into the content frame when they drop down. This part is working as planned! The first time I open the test page in my browser any link in any drop down menu will work the first time just fine.
Then, if I pick another link in any drop down menu, it appends the address of the first link to the address of the second link and the URL fails.

It is acting like it writes the url for the first link into some variable, then forgets to null it on select, and then appends the url for the second link to the variable. As I click links in different drop down menus it keeps doing this append feature until I have a very long worthless URL path. If I close the browser and start over then the first thing I click on will work properly, but that is all that will work.

I tried this test page on two different PCs, just in case there was a problem on my browsers. MS IE.6.0


A: You can use additional parameters to make menu paths absolute:

  var pathPrefix_img = "http://domain.com/images/";
  var pathPrefix_link = "http://domain.com/pages/";

These parameters allow to make images and links paths absolute.
For example:

  var pathPrefix_img = "http://domain.com/images/";
  var pathPrefix_link = "http://domain.com/pages/";

  var menuItems = [
["text", "index.html", "icon1.gif", "icon2.gif"],
];

So, link path will be look so:
http://domain.com/pages/index.html

Images paths will be look so:
http://domain.com/images/icon1.gif
http://domain.com/images/icon2.gif

Please, try to use these parameters.


Q: I've been working with your javascript menu sample and like what I see so far. One issue I have seems to be with the smColumns variable. I'm assuming it was for just the sub menus but in the trial when I change this the entire menu goes into multi- column mode. I exported the project to HTML thinking I could manually change it there, that produced the same result, changed the entire menu to multi-column.

Our menu will be dynamic (populated from SQL Server) with only some of the sub menus being multi-column. We will even have multiple sub menus for certain items and we'll need to have the capability to set which one of those will be displayed in Multi-columns and which ones will not. (See Below) So the question becomes; Is there a way to set the number of columns only for the javascript menu sample subitems we desire to have multi-column and if so how?

A: You should use Individual Styles and set number of javascript menu sample submenu columns foreach submenu individually.

  var menuStyles = [
["smColumns=2","smOrientation=undefined"],
];



Q: Hi, I purchased your deluxe-menu product and it's working great, the only problem I'm having is the tree menu in javascript is always fully expanded when a new customer enters the site. I've looked through your support blog but I can't find a reason for it.

A: Check that parameter:

  var texpanded = 0;

It expands all items by default.
