Q: Is it possible to use this easy drop down menu as a static HTML form element so it does not behave like a link but its value is posted with other form elements on submit?
A: You are able to paste any html code within items.
So you can paste a form too.
For example:
var menuItems = [
...
["<nobr><FORM method=GET action='http://www.google.com/custom'>
<input name='as_q' value='searchthe web' size=15 style='font-size:10'>
<INPUT type=hidden name=cof value='LW:144;L:http://domain.edu/images/sulogo.gif;LH:45;AH:center;GL:0;S:http://domain.edu;AWFID:e01cb67b8afe383e;'>
</form></nobr>","", "images/icons/search.gif", "", "", "", "", "2", "", "", "",],
Q: I'm having a problem displaying a little white icon arrow on my dhtml foldout menu. I us Adobe Dreamweaver to build my site. When previewing, I found that adding . /.. to the .js file works good and it displays the arrows. But when I Put the menu on the internet it goes back to displaying a blank box like it can t find it again. My menu is in my site's root directory, and I would like to control all my site's pages with it. I am going to have a basic template for the whole site with the dhtml foldout menu on it and I am to building all the pages from that.
If I don't change the link to ../../ the only pages that will work is the one that is in the same directory as my menu files.
A: Try to use absolute paths to your images on the website. Your menu will work correctly inall cases in that case.
var pathPrefix_img="http://www.domain.org/Fundraising/Scrip/";
var arrowImageMain=["data.files/arrv_white_1.gif",""];
var arrowImageSub=["data.files/arr_white_1.gif",""];
or
var pathPrefix_img="";
var arrowImageMain=["http://www.domain.org/Fundraising/Scrip/data.files/arrv_white_1.gif",""];
var arrowImageSub=["http://www.domain.org/Fundraising/Scrip/data.files/arr_white_1.gif",""];
Q: When I export the file sometimes the links doesn't work in css tabbed menu
A: See, you can use links if you have
var tabMode=1;
only.
If you have
var tabMode=0;
You should use the ID of the DIV.
But you can try to open your pages using different targets in thefollowing way
["tab text", "javascript: window.open('test.html', 'frameName')", ...],
["tab text", "javascript: window.open('http://deluxe-tabs.com/test.html', '_self')", ...],
["tab text", "javascript: window.open('html/test.html', '_blank')", ...],
Where frameName - the name of the frame where to open the page test.html.
Using this method you can create Deluxe Tabs in var tabMode=0; and var tabMode=1;
Q: This is probably a really basic question, but I was wondering if
your dhtml menu maker makes it possible to determine the direction of the
drop down menu. In other words, my menu is at the bottom of the page
and I want the drop down list to actually go "up," not down.
Is that possible with your software?
A: Yes it is possible.
You should use the following parameter
var subMenuVAlign="top"; //downward
var subMenuVAlign="bottom"; //upward
var subMenuAlign="left"; //from left to right
var subMenuAlign="right"; //from right to left
