2.0 Buttons by Web-Buttons.com v3.0.0

Javascript Menu. DHTML Menu.

  • Setup menu parameters manually or using De Luxe Tuner. Then add some rows of a code within html page code and your menu is ready!
  • Use special Java Script methods for: Dynamic changing of items (link, text, icons, arrows and even individual style!). Addition/removing of items or submenus. Disabling and enabling menu items. Getting the info on every submenu, menu, and items. Changing appearance of items. Other coding tricks.
  • Cross-frame mode lets you to construct full-featured dhtml menus on the pages with frames. But for all that frame set it's not necessary to insert any additional code into all the pages - just specify several extra menu parameters.
  • Ability to handle the menu from the keyboard via keystrokes.

Q: Now it works fine in Firefox and mostly in IE.... Only problem... In IE...

When the page with dhtml tab menu first loads ... It does not load the content of the first DIV....
It's fine in Firefox...now IE just does not load the first div... I've tried added a JS function to set to visible the first DIV onLoad...but that does not work either...

Is there anyway to hard-code in ...to set the first DIV to visible?

A: I've just checked your website. Your dhtml tab menu work correctly.

You should check that you use correct value of
  var bselectedItem=1;
parameter.

That is mean that second item in menuItems array will be highlighted.
["-","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ], //0
["About","content1", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ], //1
["FAQs","content2", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ], //2
["Before & Afters","content3", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ], //3
["Pre/Post Care","content4", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ], //4
["Special Offers","javascript:location.href = '../specials/index.htm'", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ], //5

Now you have also:
<script type="text/javascript" src="data-deluxe-tabs.js"></script>

<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0" width="500">
<tr>

<td align=center valign=top>

<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0" width=500 height=250 align=center>
<tr>
<td valign=top height=1>
<script type="text/javascript" src="../scripts/templates/tabs-opera.js"></script>
</td>
</tr>

I think that it is not correct. You should write:

<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0" width="500">
<tr>

<td align=center valign=top>

<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0" width=500 height=250 align=center>
<tr>
<td valign=top height=1>
<script type="text/javascript" src="data-deluxe-tabs.js"></script>
</td>
</tr>



Q: When I save the file in our folder all the icons stop showing.  I placed a image folder in our IE folder and still no icons are showing.

A: You should check all your paths.
Please, check that you have correct paths in the tmenuItems. Forexample:

 ["|Samples", "", "icon3_s.gif", "icon3_so.gif", "", "Samples Tip"],
   ["||Sample 1", "testlink.htm", "iconarrs.gif"],
   ["||Sample 2", "testlink.htm", "iconarrs.gif"],
   ["||Sample 3", "testlink.htm", "iconarrs.gif"],
   ["||Sample 4", "testlink.htm", "iconarrs.gif"],
You can also try to use the following parameter:

  var tpathPrefix_img = "img/";



Q: The menu is very large and I am concerned about load speed.

Does the ajax like technology just load the top tabs and then only the sub menus if they are clicked? I have clicked true and added 5 as there are 5 submenus but it does not seem to make any difference.

What can I do to speed up the javascript onclick menu?

A: Check that you've set the following parameter:

  var dm_writeAll=0;


Q: Do you have any tutorials on how to use dropdown menu maker?

A: Unfortunately we don't have step by step tutorial yet.
We'll try to create it in the nearest time.

1. Create your menu in Deluxe Tuner.

When you open Deluxe Tuner you can click "File/New"
and add items and subitems using buttons "Add Item" and "Add Subitem" on
the main window.

You should set items and subitems parameters on the "Item Parameters"
window.
See also other parameters for the menu on the main window.

More info about menu parameters you can find on our site
http://deluxe-menu.com/parameters-info.html
http://deluxe-menu.com/menu-items-info.html

You can also use Individual Styles for items and subitems
http://deluxe-menu.com/individual-item-styles-info.html
http://deluxe-menu.com/individual-submenu-styles-info.html

2. You should install the menu on your page.
You can click, for example, File/Export to HTML.

So, you'll have folder with all engine files and images
("deluxe-menu.files/" folder by default), deluxe-menu.html file and
data-deluxe-menu.js file with all menu parameters.

Open deluxe-menu.html file in any text editor and copy several rows of
code into your page (for example index.html page of your website).

Copy and paste several rows into your html page (index.html).

<head>
...
<!-- Deluxe Menu -->
<noscript><a href="http://deluxe-menu.com">Javascript Menu by Deluxe-Menu.com</a></noscript>
<script type="text/javascript">  var WorkPath="deluxe-menu.files/";</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="deluxe-menu.files/dmenu.js"></script>
...
</head>

<body>
...
<table>
<tr><td><script type="text/javascript" src="deluxe-menu.files/data-deluxe-menu.js"></script></td></tr>
//data-deluxe-menu.js - data filecreated inDeluxe Tuner.
</table>
...
</body>

You should also copy "deluxe-menu.files/" folder with all engine files
dmenu.js
dmenu_add.js
dmenu_dyn.js
dmenu_key.js
dmenu_cf.js
dmenu_popup.js
dmenu_ajax.js
dmenu_search.js
and data-deluxe-menu.js file into the same folder with your index.html page.

Try that.
