Q: I was adding a title to the page containing the Turner Delux drop down menu and now the the menu is gone and I cannot recover it.
Please tell me in very plan instructions how to load the Mneu on to a blank Front Page web page.
A: See, you should do the following things.
1. Create your menu in Deluxe Tuner.
2. Export the menu into html file "File/Export/To HTML".
3. Copy generated folder with all engine .js files and images
("deluxe-menu.files/" by default) and data-deluxe-menu.js (by default) into the same folder with you index.html page (created inFrontPage).
4. Now you should add several rows of code into your index.html file.
You can do it in FrontPage (open HTML source of the page and edit it)or in any text editor. Open your index.html page and edit it.
Notice that you'll have errors in the Preview. But you won't get errors if you open this page in the browser.
5. Add the following code in the tag:
<!-- Deluxe Menu -->
<noscript><a href="http://deluxe-menu.com">Javascript Menu by Deluxe-Menu.com</a></noscript>
<script type="text/javascript"> var dmWorkPath="deluxe-menu.files/";</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="deluxe-menu.files/dmenu.js"></script>
and
<script type="text/javascript" src="data-deluxe-menu.js"></script>
in the place where you want to have the menu.
You can paste it in <table>, <div> tags. For example.
<div align=center>
<script type="text/javascript" src="data-deluxe-menu.js"></script>
</div>
6. Save your index.html page and open it in any browser.
Q: For each item in my menu, can I specify an image in place of text or background?
A: If you want to use images instead item text, you should useindividual item styles. For example:
var itemStyles = [
["itemWidth=200", "itemBackImage=image1.gif,image2.gif"], // style 0
["itemWidth=150", "itemBackImage=image3.gif,image4.gif"], // style 1
];
var menuItems = [
[" ", "link", "", "", "tip", "target", "0"],
[" ", "link", "", "", "tip", "target", "1"],
];
Where "0", "1" - style number in itemStyles.
Please, use Deluxe Tuner application to create and assign individualstyles. You can find Deluxe Tuner in the trial package.
Q: By the way, this is an issue at your site, too...
Have a look at
http://deluxe-menu.com/objects-overlapping-sample.html in
FireFox - when hovering over the Product Info or Samples buttons, the Deluxe Menu flash element disappears behind the drop-down menu.
I notice this pages states: "If for some reasons a submenu can't drop down over an object the latter will be hidden for a time when the submenu is shown.".
A: Unfortunately, it is really so.
Now there is no work around for this.
We'll try to fix this bug in the future version of Deluxe Menu.
Q: I'm about to create a transparent menu as you can see on the attached photo. I can't find any samples on how to place the cascading navigation bar on an image with 100% opacity. Is it possible...?
A: To create a transparent menu you should set transparent value for the following parameters:
var menuBackColor="transparent";
var itemBackColor=["transparent","transparent"];
