  • Apply any font of any color, size and font decoration you need. Use any available type, color and thickness of a menu's frame. Choose any color for submenus and items backgrounds.
  • Set the size of the menu in percent, pixels, or other units. This menu may have a relative (it can be inserted into the table, for example) or absolute position .
  • Specify various values for spacing and padding for the whole menu and for each separate submenu.
  • You can specify a time for delays in showing or hiding of a submenu. Use special prefixes for image paths and links to make paths absolute.
  • Create separators using your own pictures, size and alignment.

Q: Do you have a few examples of how to create clickable links for html popup?

A: You can find such example here:
http://deluxepopupwindow.com/javascript-close-popup-safari.html

See how you should write your link:
<a class=sampleLink title="Click to open sample" href="javascript:;"
onClick="deluxePopupWindow.open('safari', 'New Popup window', '#2: Popup window',
width=250,height=50,resizable,minimizable,fullscreen,centerscreen,middle,right,,fade-effect,
opacity=0.95,floatable=no', 'windows_safari')">Click here to open</a>



Q: I have another question:

Menu behavior in SAFARI is does not properly work compared to EXPLORER.

If you have a look at the site via SAFARI, please do the following:

Example:
Under menu "Projets" select "par pays" then "Afrique" then "Algerie".

It will then show a left hand menu. Please select "2008/2010".

It will correctly show content.

Then if you try to select again via menu "Projets"; the html menu navigation does not show anymore the submenus. You still need to click a menu without submenus, like "News", and then afterwards you can click "Projets" and the system will again show submenus.

This strange behaviour does not appear in EXPLORER nor in FIREFOX.

A: The problem is in your frame structure after you open "Projets" select "par pays" then "Afrique" then "Algerie".

Your menu won't work correctly with such frame structure.

You should use the following frame structure for all pages at once:

--------------------------------------------------------
topFrame with the html menu navigation
--------------------------------------------------------
Algerie_leftFrame |
with | Algerie_mainFrame
Tree Menu |
--------------------------------------------------------
bottomFrame
--------------------------------------------------------

and write your init function in the following way:
dm_initFrame("frmSet", 0, 2, 0);

Or you shouldn't use Algerie_leftFrame and Algerie_mainFrame at all (use one mainFrame) and write your init function in the following way:
dm_initFrame("frmSet", 0, 1, 0);


Q: All of a sudden I'm getting the 'Incorrect Copyright" on two of my sites.??

  Here's what I have in the file:

  <!-- Deluxe Menu, Deluxe-Menu.Com -->
<noscript><a href=http://deluxe-menu.Com/>Javascript Menu by Deluxe-Menu.Com</a></noscript>
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript1.2">vardmWorkPath = "menudir/dmenu.js";</script>
<!-- (c) 2005, Deluxe-Menu.Com -->

  What's wrong??


A: What version of the menu you're using?

Now we have new version of the menu v2.4. We've fixed "IncorrectCopyright" message in IE7 in it.

How to upgrade to v2.4
---------------------------------------------------------------
You can download the licensed engine .js files from the same link in your license message.
Deluxe Menu v2.4 has new parameters and features.
To upgrade to v2.4 you should do the following.

Step 1.
1.1 For Windows users
a. Install new license package. (you can download it from the same link in your license message)
b. Run Deluxe Tuner v2.4
c. Open menu data file (.js file where menu parameters are placed):
select File/Open…
d. 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 <noscript></noscript> tags of the menu by the following code:

<noscript><a href="http://deluxe-menu.com">Javascript Menu by Deluxe-Menu.com</a></noscript>

See more info about installation here:
http://deluxe-menu.com/installation-info.html

Step 4. Save HTML-page.

Step 5. New engine v2.4 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 v2.4.

Try that.


Q: Will all your navigation bar examples work cross-frame?

A: See how should you create cross frame menu:

1. To initialize the cross frame menu call dm_initFrame()
function instead of standard dm_init() function within data.js file:

dm_initFrame(framesetID, mainFrameInd, subFrameInd, orientation);

framesetID - id attribute of the frameset;
mainFrameInd - index of the main frame (where the top-menu is placed), >=0;
subFrameInd - index of the subframe (where the submenus will be shown), >=0;
orientation - frame orientaion: 0 - top-to-bottom, 1 - left-to-right; 2 - bottom-to-top; 3 - right-to-left.

So you should create your menu in Deluxe Tuner, save it.
Create html file with your frame set.

Set ID for the first frameset:
<FRAMESET id=frmSet rows=220,*>
<FRAME id=frame1 src="Deluxe Menu Samples_files/cross-frame-horizontal-1.htm"> //menu frame
<FRAME id=frame2 name=frame2 src="Deluxe Menu Samples_files/testlink.htm"> //content frame
</FRAMESET>

Then you should open your data file in any text editor and change
dm_init(); for example to dm_initFrame("frmSet", 0, 1, 0);
