Q: I have another question regarding the popup window. I need to use an iframe within the popup window. Is there any way I can close the onmouseover popup from the page loaded within the iframe? Something like "parent.document.getElementById('windowid').hide();". Any help would be appreciated.
A: You can close the onmouseover popup using the following function:document.getElementById('win').hide();
Unfortunately it won't work if you use iframe as window content.
You open another page in the popup (in Iframe) so you cannot accessdocument.getElementById('win').hide();
element which is situated on the first page.
When you use text or object_id as window content the content of the popup will be situatedon the same page so you can access document.getElementById('win') element and hide it.
There is a workaround.
Use text as content type and add the following code inside popup:
<a onclick="document.getElementById('win').hide();">...</a> <iframe></iframe>
Your link will work in that case.
Q: I am trying to install a search engine on my site and am having trouble due to my use of your tree-menu system, which I love by the way. I really need to find a compatible script that will search your javascript menu system, or at the very least search another file with mirrored links. I DO NOT want to add the links to each page, this is why I love your menu's, there is one central location to change navigation statewide.
Do you know if there is a search script that can do this( js, php) or is there a way to make your javascript tree menus accessible to the search engine?
A: You can generate search engine friendly code.
Deluxe Tree is a search engine friendly menu since v2.4.
To create a search engine friendly menu you should add additional html code within your html page:
<div id="dmlinks">
<a href="http://deluxe-menu.com">menu_item_text1</a>
<a href="http://deluxe-tree.com">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: I am just starting to work with deluxe menu for a site that I am developing. I will soon be going through the purchase of a license but have not yet reached that point.
At the moment though, as I build the framework for the site locally on my computer, I notice that the menu behave a looks differently in IE 6 and Firefox (I am focusing on a CSS base menu). Is this something that will be worked out once I have purchased the licensing key or is there something else that I am missing?
A: Deluxe Menu works fine in all browsers.
Try to set exact width for the menu width and menu height, try to specify unitsin "px":
var menuWidth="500px";
It's necessary to specify exact value for Mozilla browsers. It helpsto position menus correctly.
var menuHeight="20px";
You should also check your padding parameter, you should write it so:
var itemPadding="1px 1px 1px 12px";
You can also send us a copy of your html page (including .js files) ora direct link to your website, so we can check it.
