Q: Do you have any working examples of a menu generated using .php from a MySQL database?

Our website is dynamic from a MySQL db and we already have categories and sub-categories. It would be useful if we could use this with our deluxe menu.

I don't know how to set this up, so any assistance would be appreciated.


A: You may generate a menu from a database or XML using any server-side script, e.g., PHP, ASP, VB, etc.
However, these scripts don't work inside of Javascript .js files, so, you should move parameters of a menu from a .js file into an html-page, e.g.:

<!-- Deluxe Menu -->
<noscript><a href="http://deluxe-menu.com">Javascript Menu by Deluxe-Menu.com</a></noscript>
<script type="text/javascript">  var dmWorkPath = "menudir/";</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="menudir/dmenu.js"></script>
<!-- (c) 2006, http://deluxe-menu.com -->

<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript1.2">
// and describe parameters of a menu
  var parameter1=value1;
  var parameter2=value2;
etc.

  var menuItems = [
// here you generate items using server-side scripts (php, asp, vb, etc.)
];</script>

The example of the menu working with PHP/MYSQL you can find here:

Q: When I want to have the same width of each item I use the individuel styles sometime it works and sometime not

A: See, when you use Individual styles to set the width for your items

  var bstyles = [
["bitemWidth=150px"],
];

you should check that you haven't set the exact width for the menu

  var bmenuWidth="250px";

Please, check it.



Q: We want to create a hyperlink (lets say google.com) to the item (eg. Industry,International Airlines etc) and display it in the dataframe.

For eg On clicking the 'International Airlines', the hyperlinked content should be displayed on the DataFrame along with expanding the navigation items. Right now it just expands the navigation , but the link doesn't work.

The hyperlink works fine for the subitems. We want to do the same for the main items as well.


A: You can write your top items in the following way:

["<a href='http://google.com' target='DataFrame' style='color: #000; text-decoration: none;'>International Airlines</a>","", "", "", "", "","DataFrame", "", "", ],


Q: There are two of your menus that we wish to incorporate into one. Our main left hand side vertical navigation menu would be an accordion menu. When you click on products in the accordion menu, it would drop down with an indented sub menu. When you hover over a link in the sub menu, your Javascript Scrolling Menu - Smart Scrollable Feature would allow us to have a scrolling sub menu.

I guess my question is can you have two javascript dhtml scroll menus working together in the same page?

A: I'm not sure I understand your question.
Why you should create two menus in that case?

You can create only one vertical menu (left menu) with all submenusand set smart scrollable feature:

  var smSmartScroll=1;

That is all. Please try the trial version.
