Q: Many internet cafe's don't have JavaScript installed. Is there a way to show a link to an alternative page if there is no JavaScript installed on the computer?
A: Your visitors should change security settings in IE to allow Javascript on pages they load.
When your security settings in IE doesn't allow Javascript onpages you load you can't see a dynamic page content.
There is no way to enable these preferences automatically, in othercase there are no reasons to create security preferences.
Q: I've got an xp style menu that I'm trying to place within a table... Things are not rendering as I'd expect
I am trying to put the menu in the left column of the table, a form on the right side, and then center the entire table.
The html table is surrounded by a center tag (have tried a div tag with no difference).
It appears the xp menu is obeying the center tag, but not keeping it relative to the containing table...
How can I fix this issue? I have also attached the html source code as it is rendered in the browser in case that is of some use.
A: You should set the following parameter:
var tabsolute = 0;
You're using absolute position for the menu now.
Q: Hi there ... a while ago I had asked you what I need to change to prevent exit pops from being activated, but I don't think it's working.
For example, a regular link that I want:
onClick="exit=false"
How do I do it with dhtml vertical menu?
Before, in the "text" box in the "Item Parameters" window, you had me do the following:
<span onClick='exit=false;'>click here</span>
But that doesn't seem to work. Any other suggestions? Thanks very much.
A: I suppose that you should move menuItems from the data file to yourhtml page directly (where you define exit variable).
<script>
menuItenms = [
...
],
</script>
Q: The menu maps to the width size of the longest menu item on the list, can you tell me how I can restrict this, and have a fixed menu size.
A: Unfortunately it is really so.
You can try to wrap your text.
You should set the following parameter:
var noWrap = 0;
or use <br> tags within menuItems.
