  • Submenus drop down over all the objects of the page (select, flash, object, embed, applet). 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.
  • These effects will make your menu more attractive and stylish. You can cast a shadow on the menu and submenus, set transparency. Among available transitional effects there are such as fade, mosaic, random dissolve, slide out and many others.
  • Create individual styles and assign them to any submenu and item. Use individual styles to achieve stunning effects!

Recent Questions

Q: I am trying to create a multicolumn dhtml navigation menu and nothing appears when I upload it to my server. I am attaching my menu called menu.js that I have created and placed in a folder called menudir.

Can you please advise, thank you.

A: You can find more info here:
http://www.deluxe-menu.com/highlighted-items-sample.html

Deluxe Menu has only two states normal and mouseover.

Try to do the following things:
- delete   var pressedItem=1; parameter from your data file
- set correct parameter on each page before you call data file, forexample:

<noscript><a href="http://deluxe-menu.com">dhtml navigation menu by Deluxe-Menu.com</a></noscript>
<script type="text/javascript">  var dmWorkPath = "menudir/";</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="menudir/dmenu.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">  var pressedItem=3;</script>
...
<script type="text/javascript" src="menudir/data.js"></script>

You can also set a pressed item using Javascript API:

function dm_ext_setPressedItem (menuInd, submenuInd, itemInd, recursion)

Sets a current pressed item.
menuInd - index of a menu on a page, >= 0.
submenuInd - index of a submenu, >= 0.
itemInd - index of an item, >=0.
recursion = true/false - highlight parent items.

But notice, to use dm_ext_setPressedItem() you should know ID of selected item and subitem. You can't get this ID after you reload your page. That is why you should write your own code on PHP.


Q: Hi there ... how do I add in the following javascript code so an exit pop doesn't go off:

onClick="exit=false;"

I read this page, but it didn't work

http://deluxe-menu.com/javascript-link-menu-support.html#

A: Unfortunately, you can't assign onmouseover/onClick event to each item. However, you can achieve this by using standard html objects within items, for example:

  var menuitems = [
["<div onClick='your_code_here'>item text</div>", "index.html"]
];



Q: Now I am coming across one more problem...
The alignment of the menu is off.

Where I can download previous versions of the menu?


A: I suppose that you're saying about submenu position.
Please, check the following parameters

  var topDX=0;
  var DX=0;

You can download trial package from the following links:
v1.12

v1.14

v1.71
http://deluxe-menu.com/deluxe-menu171setup.exe


Q: Is there a way to specify certian font styles escpecailly a hanging indent on the text of the javascript menu scroll?

A: You should use Individual styles, for example:

  var itemStyles = [
["fontStyle=bold 12px Arial,Helvetica", "fontDecoration=none,underline"], // style 0
["fontStyle=normal 12px Arial,Helvetica", "fontDecoration=underline,underline"], // style 1
["fontStyle=normal 14px Arial,Helvetica", "fontDecoration=none,none"], // style 2
];

And assign styles to your items:

  var menuItems = [
["1 Item","index.php","","","","_self","0",,,],
["2 Item","","","","","_self","1",,,],
 ["|Submenu Item","","","","","_self","2",,,],...
