Recent Questions

Q: In deluxe tuner, on a horizontal dropdown menu, how I make sure long menu items can wrap into 2 lines? Losing my mind trying to figure this out.

For example...

Instead of.. International Music X Home Decoration X Books..... I want to to do:

International X Home X Books

Music Decoration

A: You should set the following parameter:

  var noWrap=0;

Or use standard <br> tags inside item's text:

["International Music X Home<br>Decoration X Books","", "", "", "", "", "0", "0", "", "", "", ],

Try that.


Q: I am still struggling with multiple menus on one page.
It is probably something I am doing wrong, but I cannot see it.


A: Now you have:

  var absolutePos=1;
  var posX="10";
  var posY="10";


So, both of your menus have the same absolute position.

You can use relative position and place your menu inside <table>. In this case you should write so:

  var absolutePos=0;


Q: We recently bought your product.

We are developing in ASP.NET (VB) and we have a problem making you deluxe menu dynamic to suit our needs. We are using the Deluxe Menu.

The problem is each time a page with dhtml nav loads, we want to be able to generate the menuItems variable to reflect the options the individual user has, so it can't be hard coded into data.js it MUST be provided by an aspx file and attached somehow. I can't work out how to attach the variable (even a static one) as a separate file, so if you can do it with a static one, we can extend it to a dynamic one later.

For example the JS in the data.js file we want the MenuItem dimension you be loaded in a seperate file, some kind of include.

  var menuItems = [
["Home","index.aspx", "", "", "", "_self", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["About","about.aspx", "", "", "", "_self", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["Contact","contact.aspx", "", "", "", "_self", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["Help","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
 ["|HowTo Register","RegHelp.aspx", "", "", "", "_self", "", "", "", "", "", ],
 ["|FAQ","FAQ.aspx", "", "", "", "_self", "", "", "", "", "", ],
 ["|Dos 'n' Don'ts","DoDont.aspx", "", "", "", "_self", "", "", "", "", "", ],
 ["|Workshop","workshop.aspx", "", "", "", "_self", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["Gold Run","", "", "", "", "_self", "", "", "", "", "", ],
 ["|About Goldrun","goldrunAbout.aspx", "", "", "", "_self", "", "", "", "", "", ],
 ["|Veiw Sites","GoldDistribSites.aspx", "", "", "", "_self", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["My Run","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
 ["|About","aboutmyrun.aspx", "", "", "", "_self", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["TICs","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
 ["|About","abouttics.aspx", "", "", "", "_self", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["Metro","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
 ["|About","aboutmetro.aspx", "", "", "", "_self", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["Distribution","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
 ["|About","DistribAbout.aspx", "", "", "", "_self", "", "", "", "", "", ],
 ["|Status","DistribStatus.aspx", "", "", "", "_self", "", "", "", "", "", ],
 ["|News","DistribNews.aspx", "", "", "", "_self", "", "", "", "", "", ],
 ["|Display Units","DistribDisplay.aspx", "", "", "", "_self", "", "", "", "", "", ],
 ["|Team","", "", "", "", "_self", "", "", "", "", "", ],
 ["|View Sites","DistribSites.aspx", "", "", "", "_self", "", "", "", "", "", ],
 ["|TIC Budget","", "", "", "", "_self", "", "", "", "", "", ],
];

Hope this makes sense.

A: You can move
  var menuItems = [
...
];
dm_init();

dhtml nav code from your data file to your page (template) directly:

<script>
  var menuItems = [
...
];
dm_init();

</script>


Q: Expandable javascript menu doesn't actually affect the plus/minus icon I have specified. Any ideas?

A: It is not correctly to add expand/collapse buttons into the iconfield, they won't work. You should add icons there.

To add expand/collapse buttons you should use the followingparameters:

  var texpandBtn=["img/expandbtn.gif","img/expandbtn.gif","img/collapsebtn.gif"];
  var texpandBtnW=14;
  var texpandBtnH=14;
  var texpandBtnAlign="left";
