Q: I played with it and I got the tabs java script horizontal menu to work. but having problems with them:
1. I want the tabs to open when you mouse over them, not when you click. Is it possible to do this?
2. I want the tabs to close when your mouse leave them. Can I do this?
3. It keeps saying "Incorrect key" when you click on them. Is it possible to fix them?
A: No, unfortunately it is not possible in Deluxe Tabs.
But you can use Deluxe Menu to create such java script horizontal menu.
To create such menu you should set the following parameters:
var smOrientation=1; //horizontal orientation of submenus
var subMenuAlign="pleft"; //submenu position (left align)
var smHidePause=-1; //your submenus won't be hidden till you click orscroll the page.
"Incorrect Key" message means that you didn't paste your reg. key into data.js filewith your menu.
You should paste your key parameter into .js file where your java script horizontal menuparameters (vars) and items ( var bmenuItems) are placed.You should paste the following code at the beginning of the file:
/*
Deluxe Menu Data File
Created by Deluxe Tuner v3.2
http://deluxe-menu.com
*/
var key="XXXXXX";
// -- Deluxe Tuner Style Names
Where XXXXX the key from your license message.
Try to clear also browser cache.
Notice your key will work on registered domain only. It won't work onlocal machine.
Q: I'm trying to set the frame parameters to frame name body. I have tried seven different text items: body, _body, frame name=body, framename=body, "framename=body", the relative URL, and the exact URL in the titemTarget parameter (common parameters). Nothing seems to work. It always sets the target to a new window. What text do I need to enter for the default parameter to be the body frame target?
Also, is there a way to expand only the menus and not the submenus? There doesn't seem to be a halfway point. Either all the menus are open, or all closed. If I set the default to hidden, it is non-functional. If I set it to expanded, that's not what I'm looking for either.
The menu looks good; other than these two problems it is functioning properly.
A: Please, check the following parameter:
var titemTarget="framename";
You can also set item target for each item
["|Home","testlink.htm", "default.files/icon1_s.gif", "default.files/icon1_so.gif", "", "Home Page Tip", "framename", "", "", ],
Try that.
> Also, is there a way to expand only the menus and not the submenus?
You want to expand only the main items when you load your page?
If it is so you can set expanded items by default.
If you want to expand specific items by default you should set "+"symbol at the beginning of item text.
["+Deluxe Tree: XP Style","", "default.files/xpicon1_s.gif", "", "", "XP Title Tip", "", "0", "", ], // this item is expanded by default
["|Home","testlink.htm", "default.files/icon1_s.gif", "default.files/icon1_so.gif", "", "Home Page Tip", "framename", "", "", ],
["|Product Info","", "default.files/icon2_s.gif",
"default.files/icon2_so.gif", "", "Product Info Tip", "", "", "", ], // this subitem is not expanded by default
Q: I need the sub menu to be vertical with the text on top of each other instead of horizontal way as as I have now on my website.
I have tried to change the smWidth & smHeight in the Dimension category but it shows no changes.
A: Please, see menu parameters.
You should set this parameter:
var smOrientation=0;
Q: I have built a menu with deluxe menu and I have put everything in the same map but the page doesn't display the drop down menu it says there is an error. Could you look what I do wrong?
A: It is not correctly to write local paths on your website. They won'twork:
<script type="text/javascript" src="file:///C:/Test%20website%202008/x5/data.js"></script></td>
You should upload your data.js file in the same folder with yourdmenu.js file and write:
<script type="text/javascript" src="data.files/data.js"></script></td>
