Javascript Menu. DHTML Menu.

  • Create contextual menus for your pages. For this purpose you should assign a special function for the object you want. The current coordinates of the mouse pointer or your own ones can be used for the contextual menu.
  • When the submenu is larger than the visible area of the page the submenu will be automatically decreased. To see all the submenu items you do not need to use scrollbars or something like that - just put your mouse to the bottom of a submenu and it will be automatically scrolled! You can also specify height and width for each separate submenu.
  • Build menus completely based on Cascading Style Sheets. It is possible to appoint the individual CSS styles for separate elements of the menu.

Q: We are experimenting with your library but can't seem to make it work. I am getting "d_ddm is undefined" in dmenu_popup.js menu script.

Could you tell me what we are doing wrong?

A: You should change

onClick="return dm_popup(1, 500, event);

to

onClick="return dm_popup(0, 500, event);

If you have only one menu on the page your menuInd = 0;


Q: We want to evaluate Delux Menu(DM). But before doing any testing I want to ask few questions.

-#1 Can DM support context menus on right click with in a DIV and on a button click.

ex: I have a Options button on the web page and also a DIV which is transformed using xml and xsl.

Onclick of the button and right click within the DIV area should popup the same menu.

I have various DIVs and each DIV has its own context menu.

-#2 Any issues like IE memory leaks by using DM. I am asking this we are having some issues with the present menu control we are using. IE hangs up when the web page is idle for more than 20 mins.


A: 1. Deluxe Menus supports such a feature. Please, go tohttp://deluxe-menu.com, section "Samples->Functional Samples->Popup Menu"

Q: I want a menu javascript dropdown menu which is search engine friendly

A: You can generate search engine friendly code.
Deluxe Menu is a search engine friendly menu since v1.12.
To create a search engine friendly menu you should add additional html code within your html page:

<div id="dmlinks">
<a href="menu_link1">menu_item_text1</a>
<a href="menu_link2">menu_item_text2</a>
...etc.
</div>

To generate such a code use Deluxe Tuner application.
You can find this GUI in the trial package.
Run Tuner, load your menu and click Tools/Generate SE-friendly Code (F3).

Q: If is there any way I can give some space between pressed_item and hover item for the rollover menus

A: You can try to specify spacing parameter:

  var itemSpacing=1;

You can also try to use separators.

You should add separator between menu items:
["item","#", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["-",],
["item","#", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],

Use "Add Separator button in Deluxe Tuner.

//--- Separators
  var separatorImage="";
  var separatorWidth="100%";
  var separatorHeight="2px";
  var separatorAlignment="left";
