Use special Java Script methods for: Dynamic changing of items (link, text, icons, arrows and even individual style!). Addition/removing of items or submenus. Disabling and enabling menu items. Getting the info on every submenu, menu, and items. Changing appearance of items. Other coding tricks.
Cross-frame mode lets you to construct full-featured dhtml menus on the pages with frames. But for all that frame set it's not necessary to insert any additional code into all the pages - just specify several extra menu parameters.
Ability to handle the menu from the keyboard via keystrokes.
Q: The window open javascript are loading as the page loads, as well as when you click the appropriate object. How can we prevent the pre-loading of pop-ups so that they only load onclick?
A:In that case you shouldn't set openAfter and closeAfter parameters.
So, you'll have:
deluxePopupWindow.attachToEvent(win,',,,,,') or deluxePopupWindow.attachToEvent(win,'openAfter=,closeAfter=,,,,')
Q: How can I upgrade to Deluxe Menu v2.0? Now I'm using v1.14.
A: How to upgrade to v2.00 --------------------------------------------------------------- You can download the licensed engine .js files from the same link in your license message. Deluxe Menu v2.00 has new parameters and features. To upgrade to v2.00 you should do the following.
Step 1. 1.1 For Windows users a. Run Deluxe Tuner v2.0 (can be found in the trial menu package v2.0 http://deluxe-menu.com/deluxe-menu.zip). b. Open menu data file (.js file where menu parameters are placed): select File/Open… c. Save the file: select File/Save, then click "No" button when the dialog box appears.
1.2 For other OS users a. Open menu data file (.js file where menu parameters are placed) in a text editor. b. Make sure that the following variables exist in the data file:
var keystrokes = 0; var dm_focus = 1; var dm_actKey = 113;
var dynamic = 0; var smHideOnClick = 1; var itemAlignTop = 'left'; var smSmartScroll = 1;
var dmAJAX = 0; var dmAJAXCount = 30; var dmRTL = 0; var dmObjectsCheck = 0; var menuBackRepeat = "repeat"; var menuHeight = ""; var transDuration2 = 200;
If one of the variables doesn't exist - add it at the beginning of the file.
c. Save the file.
Step 2. Now open HTML-page that contains Deluxe Menu.
Step 3. Replace existent tags of the menu by the following code:
Step 4. Save HTML-page.
Step 5. New engine v2.00 has 7 .js files. They are: - dmenu.js - dmenu4.js - dmenu_add.js - dmenu_dyn.js - dmenu_key.js - dmenu_cf.js (new v2.00) - dmenu_popup.js (new v2.00)
Replace all old .js files by the files from v2.00.
Try that.
Q: I have a paid version of the menu, and I was trying to add the functionality of dynamically adding net dhtml menu item
When I added the code I get the following JS error,
But if you have only one menu you should write menuInd = 0 dm_ext_addItemPos(0, ... dm_ext_addItem(0, ...
Q: I'm trying to have two separate menus on my web page. I read what was written in your FAQs about multiple menus, but the response was too cryptic.
It seems to me that if the dmWorkPath for each menu is declared separately, then the menus should work separately (with no interaction). I did not find this to be the case.
Do you have more complete information about creating multiple menus on one page? I would like to understand the issues.
A:David, if you want to create multiple menus on one page you should only call several data.js files with the menu.
For example you can see templates.html. You can find this file in the trial package.
