Q: I'm interested in using Deluxe menu for our website. It appearseverything is exactly what I want, but I do have one question.
Can I pass a selection from cascading navigation bar to a form?
A: Deluxe Menus doesn't have such a feature now.
But you are able to paste any html code within items.
For example:
var menuItems = [
...
["<nobr><FORM method=GET action='http://www.google.com/custom'>
<input name='as_q' value='searchthe 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", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "",],
You should write your own code within menuItem.
Q: All links in navigation bar examples open in a new window even when they're configured to open in the same page (or another frame).
A: Check the following parameters:
var itemTarget="_self";
["menu item","link.htm", "", "","Tip", "_self", "", "", "", "", "", ],Q: I am putting your deluxe menu on our pages but if I do not put the menu on top, then it the sub menus appear on opposite direction (from bottom to top.) So instead of dropping down, they drop up.
We do not want this to happen. Can you please let me know how to resolve this issue?
Mouseover menu submenu drops up unless you scroll down or put the menu on top.
A: See if your submenu has a big height and there is no enough room under the menu to showthe whole submenu the submenu will be shown above the menu (if there is enough space toshow the whole submenu).
You can set exact height for the submenus, so they will go in the place under the menu.
Q: I can’t seem to figure out how to specify the width of individual items in the website drop down menu.
I would like to specify that each menu item on the horizontal take up just 113px
regardless of the number of characters in the item.
Is there a way of doing that?
A: You should use var itemStyles to set an individual item style, forexample:
var itemStyles = [
["itemWidth=113px"]
];
var menuItems = [
["text 1", "link", "icon1", "icon2", "tip", "target", "0"],
["text 2", "link", "icon1", "icon2", "tip", "target", "0"],
["text 3", "link", "icon1", "icon2", "tip", "target", "0"],
];
Where "0" - style number in itemStyles that contains the parametersfor items width.
Use Deluxe Tuner GUI to create and assign individual styles.
