Javascript Menu. DHTML Menu.

  • Use a mouse to move a menu as a usual window. Also you can create the menu where each submenu can be "separated" from the menu (MS Office toolbar-like mode).
  • When the page is scrolled the menu remains visible. The menu can "float" along one or two coordinate axes.
  • There can be multilevel menus - create as many rows of the menu as necessary. Any submenu in its turn can include different number of columns.

Q: What I try to make is a menu dhtml with items having a border of only 1 px, also between the menu items. However it seems that Deluxe menu draws a 1 px line around every menu item giving an effective border line of 2 px between the area where the items touch each other. I want to have 1 px border also on the areas where the items touch each other.
Any suggestion how to fix this?


A: If you want to have the 1px border between the items only you canuse separators.

Please, see the following parameters:

//--- Separators
  var separatorImage=""; //for subitems
  var separatorWidth="5";
  var separatorHeight="100%";
  var separatorAlignment="right";
  var separatorVImage="images/public/separator.gif"; //for the top items
  var separatorVWidth="1";
  var separatorVHeight="100%";
  var separatorPadding="";

You should set a separator in the menuItems, for example:

  var menuItems = [
["Home","index.cfm", , , , , , , , ],
["-"],
["About Us","about.cfm", , , , , , , , ],

];


Q: Can you please write me, as I have the active menu button in the drop down menu software different color display?

A: The menu has only two states normal and mouseover.

Try to do the following things:

- delete   var pressedItem=1; parameter from your data file
- set correct parameter on each page before you call data file, forexample:

<noscript><a href="http://deluxe-menu.com">Javascript Menu by Deluxe-Menu.com</a></noscript>
<script type="text/javascript">  var dmWorkPath = "menudir/";</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="menudir/dmenu.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">  var pressedItem=3;</script>
...
<script type="text/javascript" src="menudir/data.js"></script>

You can also set a pressed item using Javascript API:

function dm_ext_setPressedItem (menuInd, submenuInd, itemInd, recursion)

Sets a current pressed item.
menuInd - index of a menu on a page, >= 0.
submenuInd - index of a submenu, >= 0.
itemInd - index of an item, >=0.
recursion = true/false - highlight parent items.

But notice, to use dm_ext_setPressedItem() you should know ID of selected item and subitem.
You can't get this ID after you reload your page. That is why you should write your own code on PHP.



Q: Two questions. First I get a "Error! Skin Load!" popup when my onmouseover popup window loads.
I see references to "skin.js". Is this supposed to be generated?

Secondly.

I am being really dense. I would like to use Deluxe Popup Windows in response to a mouse click on a picture. So far with deluxe Menu, I just put a statement like this:

<script type="text/javascript" src="rvmonitor.js"></script>
where I wanted the menu to show up. The web page loads and the Deluxe Menu displays.

I have managed to make the onmouseover popup window appear by using that code, the web page loads and the popup loads (with the skin error).

I know how to get a larger picture from a smaller one like this:

<a href="../images/Tige/CabinetMod/Tige_CabinetMod04.JPG">
<img class="border0" src="../images/Tige/CabinetMod/Tige_CabinetMod04_small.JPG" alt="Gasketmount">></a>

I just don't know how to put the rvmonitor.js into the <a href...></a> function. Could I have a simple example?

A: See, to install Deluxe Popup Window you should call two .js files onyour page:

<head>
...
<script type="text/javascript" src="deluxe-popup-window.files/dpopupwindow.js"></script> //engine file
</head>
<body>
...
<script type="text/javascript" src="deluxe-popup-window.js"></script> //data file
...
</body>

Copy deluxe-popup-window.files folder and deluxe-popup-window.js fileinto the same folder with your html page.

To open your window on mouse click you should do the following things:

<a title="Click to open the window" href="javascript:;"onclick="deluxePopupWindow.open('win', '<img class=\'border0\'src=\'../images/Tige/CabinetMod/Tige_CabinetMod04.JPG\' alt=\'Gasketmount\'>', 'Full Image', 'width=180,height=270,resizable,scrollbars=no,middle,right,fade-effect', 'windowsvista_graphite')"><imgmount\'>class="border0" src="../images/Tige/CabinetMod/Tige_CabinetMod04_small.JPG" alt="Gasket mount"></a>.


Q: I can’t seem to figure out how to specify the width of individual horizontal menu items for the html 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.
