Javascript Menu. DHTML Menu.

  • Sub menus dropdown over all the objects on the page (select, applet, flash, object, embed). If for some reasons (old browser) a submenu can't go over an object, the object will be hidden for a time when the submenu is shown.
  • Design personal styles for any submenu and item. Use individual styles to rich killer visual effects!
  • These effects will make your menu neat and chic. You can set transparency, cast a shadow on the menu and submenus. Among available special visual effects there are random dissolve, fade, mix, mosaic slide out and many many others.

Q: I'm trying out the cross-browser (top to bottom) drop down menu and I was wondering if it was possible to have the top bar (the main items) use a background image while the sub-items beneath used a plain background color and no image?

So far I've gotten them to either both use a background image, or both use a background color. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. :)

A: Actually you can create any menu you like with Deluxe Menu.

You can use Individual Styles to set background image for the items

  var itemStyles = [
["itemWidth=92px","itemBackImage=deluxe-menu.files/btn_black.gif,deluxe-menu.files/btn_black_blue.gif"],
];

oryou can use images instead of icons (you should delete item's text).

["","", "deluxe-menu.files/btn_black.gif", "deluxe-menu.files/btn_black_green.gif", "", "", "", "", "", ],



Q: I came across your program through a link on the Internet. The menu script displayed was DHTML Menu Demo #23 displayed on
http://dhtml-menu.com/dhtml-samples/menu2752.html

- this is the only menu I am interested in as it has the capability of positioning the menu script relative to an existing table in the HTML coding of the page. I already have a vertical scrolling menu with several features visitors. We are moving our website to our own server and are doing some updating to make it more attractive when viewed at different resolutions. If you look at the source coding for the page (yes, it's almost exclusively in HTML - it usually views well on any browser) you will see that ALL the content is enclosed in a table which is centered on the page allowing it to be completely viewed at any resolution of 800 x 600 or greater. But the scripting I'm using ( /* Created by Randy Bennet...) uses the left margin of the browser window as left margin of the page. If it could be written so that the left margin of the existing (and centered in the browser window) table would be the point from which the left corner of the "object1" was measured, then the page would view nicely at any resolution. But I cannot find out how to do this from your "newer version".

A: You can create the same menu using Deluxe Menu:
http://dhtml-menu.com/dhtml-samples/menu2752.html

To install Deluxe Menu in the table cell with center alignment youshould use relative position for the menu:

  var absolutePos=0;
  var posX="0px";
  var posY="0px";

And install it on your page in the following way:

<table>
<tr>
<td align="center">
<script type="text/javascript" src="deluxe-menu.js"></script>
</td>
</tr>
</table>



Q: Maybe have some code that would tell the tree menu html to expand on that particular page?

A: On your pages you should call the following function/functions to expand/highlight items,
for example:

<script>
dtreet_ext_expandItem (dtreet_ext_getItemIDByIndex (0, 0), 1);
dtreet_ext_setPressedItem (0, dtreet_ext_getItemIDByIndex (0, 1));
</script>


Q: I cannot see the shadow on the top items of the menu. Can you help me?


A: Now you have shadow the submenus only, if you want to have shadowfor the top items you should set the following parameters:

//--- Transitional Effects & Filters
  var shadowLen=4;
  var shadowColor="#B1B1B1";
  var shadowTop=1;

You can see the shadow in Internet Explorer 5+ only.
