Javascript Menu. DHTML Menu.

  • Build right-click menus for your site. For this purpose you should appoint a peculiar method for the object you want. The current X,Y of the mouse pointer or your own ones can be used for the context menu.
  • Design menus absolutely based on CSS (Cascading Style Sheets). It is possible to apply the personal CSS styles for every elements of the menu.
  • When the submenu is bigger than the visible page area, the size of submenu will be automatically decreased. To view 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 automagically scrolled! You can also define width and height for each submenu.

Q: When the html tab menu is initialized can you not have any selected tabs?
I do not want to select any tabs when the menu is initialized for some cases.

A: No, unfortunately it is not possible. Some top item should behighlighted.

But you can try to add separator in the beginning of the menu and set:
  var bselectedItem=0;
  var bseparatorWidth="0px";

  var bmenuItems = [
["-",],

Q: I've now begun to offer my clients multiple levels offunctionality. Is there any way to add another level of complexity to the php drop down menu? Would AJAX Menus be the best approach for doing this?

A: You can do it in three ways now.

1) You can use API functions to generate items dynamically:

function dm_ext_createSubmenu (menuInd, submenuInd, itemInd, iParams)
function dm_ext_addItem (menuInd, submenuInd, iParams)

See more info:
http://deluxe-menu.com/functions-info.html

2) Use AJAX feature and create different .js files depend on company and user level.

3) Generate your menu items dynamically from database.
Unfortunately we don't have working example with ASP.

You may generate a menu from a database or XML using any server-side script, e.g., PHP, ASP, VB, etc.
However, these scripts don't work inside of Javascript .js files, so,
you should move parameters of a menu from a .js file into an html-page, e.g.:

<!-- Deluxe Menu -->
<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>
<!-- (c) 2008, http://deluxe-menu.com -->

<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript1.2">
// and describe parameters of a menu
  var parameter1=value1;
  var parameter2=value2;
etc.

  var menuItems = [
// here you generate items using server-side scripts (php, asp, vb, etc.)
];


The example of the menu working with PHP/MYSQL you can find here:

Q: I am using JavaScript Deluxe Menu v3.1 and have some problem with the doctype declaration. If I use the declaration:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">

the menuBackImage and itemBackImage images do not display properly. Check with and without doctype declaration. Is there a known fix for this?

A: You should specify units in "px" for the javascript menu object.

  var itemPadding="15px 10px 0px 20px";
  var menuStyles = [
["smColumns=2","itemPadding=25px 10px 10px 10px"],
["itemPadding=25px 10px 10px 20px"],
["menuBackImage=img/nahbp_1.gif","itemPadding=25px 10px 10px 20px"],
];



Q: Thank you for your quick service. Question for you, in the templates java expanding menu - Standard Tree Menu. There is an option to search by Index and also word query. When I bring the Template up I dont see this option on the sample menu. I'm I missing something or do I need to add it. If I need to add it can you explain to me how to do it.

A: You are able to paste any html code within java expanding menu items.

For example:

  var tmenuItems = [
...
["<nobr><FORM method=GET action='http://www.google.com/custom'><input name='as_q' value='search
the web' size=15 style='font-size:10'>&nbsp;<INPUT type=hidden name=cof
value='LW:144;L:http://domain.edu/images/sulogo.gif;LH:45;AH:center;GL:0;S: http://domain.edu;AWFID:e01cb67b8afe383e;'></form></nobr>","", "images/icons/search.gif", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "",],

You should write your own code within tmenuItem.
