Q: I have inherited a project to finish which makes use of your java script tree menu.
I have not used your product. Is there a user’s guide/manual I can download?
A: Unfortunately we don't have step by step tutorial yet.
We'll try to create it in the nearest time.
1. Create your menu in Deluxe Tuner application.You can create any menu you like in Deluxe Tuner.
Deluxe Tuner v3.0 supports Deluxe Menu (http://deluxe-menu.com) &Deluxe Tree (http://deluxe-tree.com) & Deluxe Tabs (http://deluxe-tabs.com)
You can use ready to use templates. You can find them in the templateswindow.
When you open Deluxe Tuner ( Deluxe Tree ) you can click "File/New"and add items and subitems using buttons "Add Item" and "Add Subitem" onthe main window.
You should set items and subitems parameters on the "Item Parameters"window.
See also other parameters for the java script tree menu on the main window.
More info about menu parameters you can find on our site

You can also use Individual Styles for items and subitems

2. You should install the java script tree menu on your page.
You can click, for example, File/Export to HTML (you can't do it inthe MAC version).
Add several rows into your html page.
<head>
...
<!-- Deluxe Tree -->
<noscript><a href="http://deluxe-tree.com">Javascript Tree Menu by Deluxe-Menu.com</a></noscript>
<script type="text/javascript"> var tWorkPath="deluxe-tree.files/";</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="deluxe-tree.files/dtree.js"></script>
...
</head>
<body>
...
<table>
<tr><td><script type="text/javascript" src="deluxe-tree.files/data.js"></script></td></tr> //data-deluxe-tree.js - data file created in Deluxe Tuner.
</table>
...
</body>
You should also copy all engine files
dtree.js
dtree_add.js
dtree_dyn.js
dtree_ajax.js
into "deluxe-tree.files/" folder. You should place this folder in thesame folder with your index. html page.
Try that.
Q: Thank you so much for your time and assistance - I've been charged with this project and still struggling a little. Considering my total ignorance to code, I'm understanding much better now, but could you please take a look at the page and tell me why I now have double menus and how to correct?
A: It happens because at first you call
<SCRIPT src="CHSD Map_files/data.js" type=text/javascript > </SCRIPT >
and then you paste the content of data.js file in your code.
That's why you have two menus on your page.Please, delete one of them.
Q: Ich benutze Deluxe Menu 2.0! Beim InternetExplorer funktioniert das PullDown Menue nicht, bei Firefox und Opera gibt es keine Probleme.
A: Thanks for your interest in our products.
Try to delete OVERFLOW: hidden; parameter from the following style:
.randspalte {
BORDER-RIGHT: #666 1pt solid; OVERFLOW: hidden; BORDER-LEFT: #666 1pt solid; WIDTH: 16%; HEIGHT: 90%; BACKGROUND-COLOR: #bebed1
}
Q: I'm trying out your menus, and I seem to have a problem with changing the title of a menu item. If the text is something like "Create a New Event" the entire menu spreads out and the rollover image starts replicating itself behind it, instead fo stretching with the text. So I see 1 /2 rollover images for that top level item, instead of just the one, width it's width spread out to accomodate the extra text.
I've tried the Styles bit, but that doesn't seem to fix the rollover image any...
Any pointers ?
A: You can try to set the exact width for each menu item using IndividualItem Styles.
You should use Individual Item Styles.
For example:
var itemStyles = [
["itemWidth=120","itemBorderWidth=1","itemBorderStyle=solid,solid"], //style0
["itemWidth=100","itemBorderWidth=1","itemBorderStyle=solid,solid"], //style1
["itemWidth=130","itemBorderWidth=1","itemBorderStyle=solid,solid"], //style2
["itemWidth=150","itemBorderWidth=1","itemBorderStyle=solid,solid"], //style3
];
["Home","testlink.htm"],
["Samples","testlink.htm"],
["|Group 1","", , , , , "0", , , ],
["|Group 2","", , , , , "1", , , ],
["|Group 3","", , , , , "2", , , ],
...
[" More Samples","testlink.htm"],
["|Group 1","", , , , , "3", , , ],
["|Group 2","", , , , , "1", , , ],
Where "0", "1", "2", "3" - style number in itemStyles.
You also should check the width of your rollover image. It should bethe same width as your items.
You can also use
tags in the item text, for example:
var menuItems = [
["line 1
line 2"],
];
Or you can set this parameter:
var noWrap=0;
Try that.
