Q: Your service is excellent and I am making progress learning the program. I was able to resolve the transparency issue thanks to your help but, but now I have another one that is stumping me.
I can get the menu to show up in my html document and it works as I hoped it would. However, no matter where I put the line of code in my html file, the down menu in dhtml always shows up at the very top of the page. The instructions indicate the following:
Copy the following code into clipboard and paste it into the place you want to have the down menu in dhtml:
<script type="text/javascript" src="newmenu2.js"></script>
For example, into a table cell:
<table>
<td><script type="text/javascript" src="newmenu2.js"></script></td>
</table>
No matter where I put the code:
<script type="text/javascript" src="newmenu2.js"></script>, the menu shows up at the top of the page.
What am I missing?
A: Check that you're using relative position for the down menu in dhtml:
var absolutePos=0;
var posX="0px";
var posY="0px";
Q: Is it possible to set the width for each individual tab in the html tabs navigation
instead of having them size dynamically based on the tab name?
Basically I want to have identically sized tabs,
but can't figure out how todo it.
A: You can create Individual Items Style and assign it to your tabs.
var bstyles = [
["bitemWidth=100px"],
];
var bmenuItems = [
["Item 1","", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["Item 2","", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["Item 3","", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["Item 4","", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["Item 5","", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
];
Q: If there was a way to show the links inside the html code instead of the dhtml menu js files. Shouldwe use an alternative mode as (css Style?)
A: You can move menuItems into html page directly inside <script> ...
</script> tags:
<script>
var menuItems [
...
];
dm_init();
</script>
You can also use search engine friendly code and install it on yourpage before you call your dhtml menu js file.
You'll see text links in that case.
To create a search engine friendly menu you should add additional html code within your html page:
<div id="dmlinks">
<a href="http://deluxe-menu.com">menu_item_text1</a>
<a href="http://deluxe-tree.com">menu_item_text2</a>
...etc.
</div>
To generate such a code use Deluxe Tuner application.
Run Tuner, load your menu and click Tools/Generate SE-friendly Code (F3)
Q: Currently let us know how can we align the text at the top dropdown menu script so that the text will appear above the horizontal line.
Kindly help us to solve this problem as soon as possible.
A: Unfortunately you cannot set vertical align for items text.But you can try to write your item text in the following way:
var menuItems = [
["Home<br> ","/index.asp?pgid=1", , , , , "0", , , ],
["About Us<br> ","/index.asp?pgid=2", , , , , "0", , , ],
["Company News<br> ","/index.asp?pgid=3", , , , , "0", , , ],
["Services<br> ","/index.asp?pgid=4", , , , , "0", , , ],
["|Custom Publishing","/index.asp?pgid=6", , , , , , , ,],
["|On Product Publishing","/index.asp?pgid=7", , , , , , , , ],
["|Investment","/index.asp?pgid=10", , , , , , , , ],
["Contact Us<br> ","/index.asp?pgid=5", , , , , "0", ,, ],
];
