Q: Could I create a function that displays thetab that the user clicked in the left tab menu.
These tabs are all within the same window, sothe page will always be the same.
Just need a function to make differenttabs appear.
A: Unfortunately Deluxe Tabs doesn't support API functions now.
You can use the following function to open specific tab:
dtabs_itemClick(menuInd,itemInd);
where
menuInd - index of a tab menu on a page, >= 0.
itemInd - index of a item, >=0.
For example:
<DIV onClick="dtabs_itemClick(0,2)" style="width: 200px; border: 2px solid #000;">Click to open the third tab</DIV>Q: A brief one on dynamic menu in the perspective of bilinguism
I understood from the tuner that a menu can be made dynamic (although it is somewhat minimally documented ;-))
Leaving alone all the beautiful sophisticated and complex mechanic of it
Say I have my main menu that says :
var dynamic=1; (that's all I got from the doc ..)
And then
var menuItems = [
["Choice 1 ","page1.php", "", "", "Choice 1",", "_self", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["Choice 2","page2.php", "", "", "Choice 2", "_self", "", "", "", "", "", ],
];
Minimalist ? ;-) right ?
1/ first I'm not too sure about what exactly in order are these 11 parameters although I'm fine with the only 4 I have here
2/ if I would want to change on the fly menu javascript dropdown page on a PHP parameter Page1.php?lang=French (I perfectly master how to capture the PHP value)
So that My menu becomes on the fly
["Choix 1 ","page1.php", "", "", "Choix 1",", "_self", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["Choix 2","page2.php", "", "", "Choix 2", "_self", "", "", "", "", "", ],
Thanks in advance if you can shed some light on this
PS : And although I used hardly 1% of deluxe capability my first customer is very happy about it..

To change the menu items on the fly you can use API functions
function dm_ext_changeItem (menuInd, submenuInd, itemInd, iParams)
function dm_ext_addItem (menuInd, submenuInd, iParams)
function dm_ext_changeItemVisibility (menuInd, submenuInd, itemInd, visibility)Q: I am investigating why a few things have not been working for sometime on our site.
This is the error I get in the console "The requested URL /js/menudir/dtree_ss.js was not found on this server."
I update the files awhile back and removed the dtress_ss.js as I was instructed, why is it that it that the script is still trying to reference this file?
What do I have to do to remove this error from java script tree menu?
When I updated the files a few months back the new files seem to fix a problem we were having with Chrome, but broke the drop down menu in Explorer. I have yet to resolve this. The drop down menu appears to work fine in all other browsers.
The nav menu not working in IE7 (not sure about IE6 or IE8) is a bigger issue than the error in the console, but thought maybe they were related. From our analytics, the strong majority of our customers are using IE7.
A: 1) dtree_ss.js
The current version of Deluxe Tree doesn't have dtree_ss.js at all. You should deletethe following code from your page:
<script language="JavaScript1.2" src="/js/menudir/dtree_ss.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
In the body tag you should write:
<td >
<script src="/js/menudir/data-tree.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
</td>
In the HEAD tag you should write:
<!-- Deluxe Tree -->
<noscript><a href="http://deluxe-tree.com">java script tree menu by Deluxe-Tree.com</a></noscript>
<script type="text/javascript"> var tWorkPath="/js/menudir/";</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="/js/menudir/dtree.js"></script>
<!-- (c) 2009, http://deluxe-tree.com -->
2) Error in IE7.
You're using new engine files and old data files for the menus now.
I'm sending you the example.
Use engine files for Deluxe Menu and Deluxe Tree and data files (data.js and data-tree.js)from it.Q: I have one more question. I built the menu using Deluxe Tuner.
I cannot find where to change the mouse over color from blue to something more appropriate in my drop down menu templates. Can you tell me where to do this?
A: You should change the second color in the following parameter:
var itemBackColor=["#FCEEB0","#65BDDC"];
