Recent Questions

Q: Can you please write me, can I have the active menu button in the javascript menu generator different color display.

A: The menu has only two states normal and mouseover.

Try to do the following things:

- delete   var pressedItem=1; parameter from your data file
- set correct parameter on each page before you call data file, forexample:

<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>
<script type="text/javascript">  var pressedItem=3;</script>

...
<script type="text/javascript" src="menudir/data.js"></script>

You can also set a pressed item using Javascript API:

function dm_ext_setPressedItem (menuInd, submenuInd, itemInd, recursion)

Sets a current pressed item.
menuInd - index of a menu on a page, >= 0.
submenuInd - index of a submenu, >= 0.
itemInd - index of an item, >=0.
recursion = true/false - highlight parent items.
But notice, to use dm_ext_setPressedItem() you should know ID of selected item and subitem.
You can't get this ID after you reload your page. That is why you should write your own code on PHP.

Q: Using data-visa-5.js

Trying to get the menu to start collapsed rather than fully expanded.

Thought it was the   var texpanded=0 setting but doesn't seem to have any effect.

A: See, when you set + sign before item's text that is mean that thisitem will be expanded.
Now you have:

["+   Home","index.php","","","Home","","","1",""],
["+   Current Weather","","","","Current Weather","","","1",""],
 ["|Hourly Forecast","index.php?forecast=avnmos&zipcode=55744&oc=mosview_option|forecast","","","Hourly Forecast",,,],
 ["|Warnings/Advisories","index.php?forecast=warnings&zipcode=55744","","","Warnings/Advisories",,,],
 ["|Special Weather Alerts","index.php?config=&forecast=special&zipcode=55744","","","Special Weather Alerts",,,],
 ["|Live Weather","javascript:open('../../wxflash/index.htm','_blank')","","","Live Weather",,,],

Delete + signs from your items:

Q: I have another question.. after I successfully click and load the data in to my window using the mouseover tab, the tab defaults back to the original default tab.
Because I have to reload my page after the tab has been selected the tab chosen is lost. What do you recommend for "remembering" the tab so that when the page reloads the correct tab is highlighted. I know that I need to set the   var bselectedItem but if you have a "nifty" way for me to do that I am all ears.

A: Deluxe Tabs doesn't support API functions which can return theselected tab aslo.

You can set "bselectedItem" and "  var bselectedSmItem" parametersbased on your link before you call your data file.

For example, move "  var bselectedItem" and "  var bselectedSmItem" parametersfrom your data file to your code.

<TD vAlign=top align=left>
/* Select Tab */
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript1.2">
  var bselectedItem=<?php echo $seltabs; ?>;
  var bselectedSmItem=<?php echo $selsmtabs; ?>;
</script>
<SCRIPT src="data.js" type=text/javascript></SCRIPT>
</TD>

You should define seltabs and selsmtabs using server side script.

You can also set it on every page before you call data.js file, forexample:

<TD vAlign=top align=left>
/* Select Tab */
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript1.2">
  var bselectedItem=4;
  var bselectedSmItem=3;
</script>
<SCRIPT src="data.js" type=text/javascript></SCRIPT>
</TD>


Q: On the same collapsible menus, is there any way to remove the spaces between the top items?

A: No, unfortunately there is no way to remove that space in XP Style
  var tXPStyle=1;

If you use
  var tXPStyle=0;

you can set the following parameter:
  var titemHeight=18;
