Q: I am interested in Deluxe Tabs MAC Style.
However before I do I want to make sure that:
- I can change the buttons pictures on both the first row and the second row. There has to be a <img src=" " > tag in the code somewhere, correct?
- I can expand or diminish the number of buttons and links
- Also, I have a question: if I am on "Mac Tab 1" menu, and I click on "Mac Tab 2" menu without clicking on any of the links onthe second row, what is the page that I see? Do I see by default Link 2_1 or do I see some kind of generic page? In other words is there a "main" page for each tab menu and then you have the other pages which correspond to Link 2_1, Link 2_2, etc.?
- Is it possible to remember a visited sub-menu? For example I am on "Mac Tab 2/Link 2_3" and I go to "Mac Tab 4/Link 4_2" and then I come back to "Mac Tab 2". Can the main page for this "Mac Tab 2" be Link 2_3 which was my last visited link on that tab?
A: 1) No, there is no such tag - <img src=" " >
For the main items you should set such parameters:
bbeforeItemImage - left part of the item
bafterItemImage - right part of the item
bitemBackImage - center part of the item
in normal, mouseover and selected states.
And for the subitems (in MAC template) you should set onlybitemBackImage - the center part of the item.
Please, see the code of this template.
2) You can create any number of the buttons and links.
3) You can set links for main items and for the subitems.
For example:
var bmenuItems =
[
["Mac Tab 1","http://deluxe-menu.com",,,,,,],
["|Link 1_1","http://apycom.com",,,,,,"0"],
["|Link 1_2","testlink.htm",,,,,,"0"],
["|Link 1_3","testlink.htm",,,,,,"0"],
So, if you click on "Mac Tab 1" you will go to http://deluxe-menu.com
And if you write so
["Mac Tab 1","",,,,,,],
no page will open.
4) This Tab menu can save pressed item automatically within1 page only. If you open another page, the menu can't remember presseditem. You should do that manually using Javascript and menu parameters( var bselectedItem, var bselectedSmItem) or using any server-sidescript (php, asp, etc.)
Q: Is there a way to make the vertical drop down menu dhtml not reset after a link is clicked. Now every time I click a link in the tree menu it takes me to the linked page but all the menus re-expand.
A: When user clicks the link, the browser loads a new page and the script re-create the vertical drop down menu dhtml.
If you want to open the needed section automatically on load you can use the following:
1. Save the state to cookies
var tsaveState=0;
2. Use frames
3. Put the special script on each page of site that will open appropriate section.

Q: Can I center the css dropdown menu on page?
A: You should set relative position for the menu:
var absolutePos=0;
and place it in DIV or TABLE with center alignment.
Q: I'd like to purchase your deluxe menu, but for the life of me I cannot figure out how to align the javascript sub menu to the top of the primary menu in Firefox. It aligns correctly in IE but in Firefox it is dropping by 20 pixels or so below where I want it.
A: This is space to document borders. We've set this space, so that yourjavascript sub menu will not look like the part of browser window. If you wantyou can delete that space.
Open dmenu.js file in any text editor and find the following code:
space=15;
Change 15 to 0.
space=0;
