Q: I have a problem with the Menus I bought. When there is a flash file on the page the submenu javascript always goes behind the flash.
How do I fix this?
A: To overlap your flash file you should add opaque parametersto your flash, for example:
<object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=7,0,19,0"width="566" height="250" title="Intro">
<param name="movie" value="/includes/banner_final3d.swf" />
<param name="wmode" value="opaque">
<param name="quality" value="high" />
<embed src="/includes/banner_final3d.swf" quality="high" wmode="opaque" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="566" height="250"></embed>
</object> Q: The cascading javascript menu does not spans frames or windows like Applets. Is that correct?
I was not able to make the sample to do it.
A: The DHTML Menu and Java Menu are built on different technologies.Java menus can create submenus that cover frames as a standard Windowssubmenus. DHTML Menu can't do that, because it's controls is htmlobjects, they can't overlap Windows controls. So, cascading javascript menu hascross-frame ability that allows it to show submenus in differentframes. But it can support this mode for the same domain only -- ifyou loaded a page to a subframe from another domain, the submenuscan't be shown in it. It happens because all browsers don't allow todo that for security reasons. Just imagine if you'll able to create aframeset from 2 frames, 1st frame will be with a zero height-width,and you'll load your page into it. Then user will go to another domainand your "invisible" frame will change a content of other pages!

Q: Could you please help me with coding of the submenu box in your java script dropdown menu?
I hope you can see images I've included in this email.
I want to put a large block of text in the submenu.
Now I can do it like the code shown here and it wraps and works OK.
["Text display","", "", "", "", "", "0", "0", "", ],
["|Text Line 1 Text Line 1Text Line 1Text Line 1<br>text Line 2text Line 2text Line 2text Line 2<br>Text line 3Text line 3Text line 3Text line 3<br>text line 4text line 4text line 4text line 4text line 4", "", "", "", "", "", "", "0"],
];
The problem is that if I want a large amount of text, the line of code with text in it will be 10 miles long. Please note the line of code above isn't broken in practice. The email wraps it.
Is there any way to break the code into lines instead of one very long line?
For example:
["Text display","", "", "", "", "", "0", "0", "", ],
["|Text Line 1 Text Line 1Text Line 1Text Line 1<br>
Line 2text Line 2text Line 2text Line 2<br>
Text line 3Text line 3Text line 3Text line 3<br>
text line 4text line 4text line 4text line 4text line 4", "", "", "", "", "", "", "0"],
];
No matter what way I try It won't work
Is there a way?
A: The only way to do that is
["|Text Line 1 Text Line 1Text Line 1Text Line 1<br>"+
"Line 2text Line 2text Line 2text Line 2<br>"+
"Text line 3Text line 3Text line 3Text line 3<br>"+
"text line 4text line 4text line 4text line 4text line 4", "", "", "", "", "", "", "0"],
];
Q: How do I control the individual tab width for afloat tabs?
A: var bmenuWidth="100%";
I have 5 items in my example, so I've created Individual Style
var bstyles = [
["bitemWidth=20%"],
];
And assign it for all items:
["Item 1 text text","", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["Item 2 text text","", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["Item 3 text text","", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["Item 4 text text","", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["Item 5 text text","", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
But notice that items width cannot be smaller than the width of its'text.
So it is possible that you'll have different size of some itemsif your window have a small size.
