Q: Thank you for such an excellent product. I have a question pertaining to the submenu items in your tree-menu line. My menus are 540px wide and contain lots of text with good sized pictures (icons). Can I use an iframe tag inside of the css menu submenu instead of simple text with this icon?
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='search
the 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 now wish to dynamically change the drop down menu in html parameters. For this, I have set the following parameters:
// Dynamic Menu
var dynamic=1;
1.Please send me the reference link for the dynamic menu commands available (for javascript).
2.Now AFTER initialization, dm_init();, I wish to change the default var itemTarget="Sub_Main";
How do I do that??
A: You can find more info about API functions here:
http://deluxe-menu.com/functions-info.html
Unfortunately it is not possible to change drop down menu in html parameters ( var ...)after menu initialization.
So, there is no way to change
var itemTarget="Sub_Main";
But you can change target for each item individually (targetparameter in menuItems) using dm_ext_changeItem function.
var menuItems = [
[text, link, iconNormal, iconOver, tip, target, itemStyleInd, submenuStyleInd, jsFilename],
[text, link, iconNormal, iconOver, tip, target, itemStyleInd, submenuStyleInd, jsFilename],
...
];
Q: I am trying to change the Width for only one javascript popup menu item and going to the below menu individual style and changing the smwidth .
But this is not changing.
A: You should assign Individual Submenu Style for the items.
You can assign it in the "Item Parameters" window.
Select for example the first item in submenu and assign IndividualSubmenu Style.
Q: How can I make the submenus appear much more quickly for the javascript expand menu?They appear but only after mouseing-over the menu and waiting for approximately one second.
A: Try to adjust the following parameters:
var dm_writeAll=0;
var smShowPause=100;
var smHidePause=1000;
var transDuration=150;
var transDuration2=200;
You can also turn off transitional effects
var transition=-1;
