Q: I need to set individual itemtargets for a number of menu script items......
example:-
var itemTarget="Main";
menuitem_1 targets the Main frame..
menuitem_2 ..
SUBmenuitem_2_(1) targets the Top frame..
SUBmenuitem_2_(2) targets the Main frame..
menuitem_3 ..
SUBmenuitem_3_(1) targets the Main frame..
SUBmenuitem_3_(2) targets the Bottom frame..
menuitem_4 targets the Main frame..
Is this possible?
A: You can set target parameter for all items:
var itemTarget="_blank";
or
var itemTarget="main";
Where main - is the name of the main frame where you want to open the link.
or for each item individually:
["Home","testlink.html", "", "", "", "_blank", "", "", "", "", "", ],
...
["Home","testlink.html", "", "", "", "main", "", "", "", "", "", ],
Q: How does an item on the dhtml navigation menus connect to pages?
Does it take the page's name automatically?
If I add a page, will the menu item show the new page?
If I remove a page, will the menu remove the item?
A: > how does an item on the menu connect to pages?
You should create menu items in the Deluxe Tuner and specify link and target for each item, for example:
var menuItems = [
["Upcoming Trainings","http://domain.org/pub/upcoming-trainings", "", "", "", "_self", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["Conferences & Workshops","upcoming-workshops.html", "", "", "", "_blank", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["Continuing Ed","ceu.html", "", "", "", "main", "", "", "", "", "", ],
];
> does it take the page's name automatically?
> if I add a page, will the menu item show the new page?
> If I remove a page, will the menu remove the item?
No, you should do it manually in Deluxe Tuner (or any text editor).
