Javascript Menu. DHTML Menu.

  • Use a mouse to move a menu as a usual window. Also you can create the menu where each submenu can be "separated" from the menu (MS Office toolbar-like mode).
  • When the page is scrolled the menu remains visible. The menu can "float" along one or two coordinate axes.
  • There can be multilevel menus - create as many rows of the menu as necessary. Any submenu in its turn can include different number of columns.

Q: I have an HTML application with 4 iframes. The main html file contains 3 iframes (top toolbar, left toolbar, and main area) and the menu. The main area iframe contains one additional iframe were the actual data is. When I interact with the data in this last iframe and try to dynamically change the menu in the .html file I get the error message: 'm' is null or not an object

The API call is:

dm_ext_addItem(0, 0, ["test1", "testlink.htm", "", "", "test1m", "_blank", "1"]);

I only have one menu.

I am using IE6

I included these files in both the hta file and the iframe source file.

<script type="text/javascript" src="./data.files/dmenu.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="./data.files/dmenu_dyn.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="./data.files/dmenu_key.js"></script>


A: Deluxe Menu doesn't work with <IFrame> objects. It works with<frameset> objects only. All it can to do with <IFrame> is to loadpages into it.
You should use standard installation for the menu (cross-frame mode).

See more info here:
http://deluxe-menu.com/cross-frame-mode-sample.html
http://deluxe-menu.com/data-samples/cross-frame-horizontal-1-sample.htm

There is no need to call dmenu_...js files.

<script type="text/javascript" src="./data.files/dmenu.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="./data.files/dmenu_dyn.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="./data.files/dmenu_key.js"></script>

You should write:

<!-- Deluxe Menu -->
<noscript><a href="http://deluxe-menu.com">Javascript Menu by Deluxe-Menu.com</a></noscript>
<script type="text/javascript">  var dmWorkPath = "./data.files/";</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="./data.files/dmenu.js"></script>

Q: ["item text", "javascript:your_code_here", ...]

This won't work the java script executes when the link is clicked it is not the link itself.
Below is what I normally use and how would I incorporate that?

<a onclick="NewWindow(this.href,'name','490','400','yes');return false;" href="web/equipment/hydraulic_truck.htm">


A: I'm not sure I understand you.
You can use

NewWindow(this.href,'name','490','400','yes');

code in an item link:

["text", "javascript:NewWindow(url,'name','490','400','yes');"]

But if you don't want that, you can just insert <a> into an item text.


Q: I am trying to change the Width for only one javascript popup menu item and going to the below menu individual style and changing the smwidth .
But this is not changing.


A: You should assign Individual Submenu Style for the items.

You can assign it in the "Item Parameters" window.
Select for example the first item in submenu and assign IndividualSubmenu Style.


Q: Is there any way to change the font size of the secondary and tertiary links but yet have a different font size for the primary links?


A: You can use different font style for each link on each level.
You should use Individual Item Styles.
Please, use Dhtml Tuner application to create individual styles.

For example:

// --- DHTML Tuner style names ---
  var tstylesNames=["Individual Style 1","Individual Style 2","Individual Style 3","Individual Style 4","New Individual Style",];
  var tXPStylesNames=["Individual Style 1",];

  var tstyles = [
["tfontStyle=bold 8pt Tahoma","titemBackColor=#265BCC,#265BCC","tfontColor=#FFFFFF,#428EFF","tfontDecoration=none,none"],
//style 0 ["tfontStyle=bold 8pt Tahoma","titemBackColor=#265BCC,#265BCC","tfontColor=#215DC6,#428EFF","tfontDecoration=none,none"],
//style 1 ["tfontDecoration=none,none"],
//style 2
["tfontStyle=normal 8pt Tahoma","tfontColor=#013D6D,#5555FF"],
//style 3
["tfontStyle=bold 11px Bookman Old Style","tfontColor=#000000,#000000","tfontDecoration=none,underline"],
//style 4
];

  var tmenuItems = [

["+DHTML Menus","", "images/xpicon1.gif", , , "DHTML Menus", , "0", , , , ],
//style 0
