Q: Hello, I am trying to figure out how to use the Dynamic functionality in the java menu codes. I believe I want to use something like the dm_ext_changeItemVisibility function, and I want it to be dependent on HTML wrapped around the menu item.
Below is functionally how I want it to work:
Show menu item 1
Show menu item 2
<if condition="!is_member_of($bbuserinfo,10)">
Show menu item 3
</if>
Show menu item 4
Is there an example you can share that does something like this? I searched the site and could not find an answer.
A: Yes it's possible, please see
http://deluxe-menu.com/dynamic-functions-sample.html
Disable "Product Info/Installation" item.
and
Hide / show "Samples" item.
You can call these function via javascript depending on your conditions.
Q: I have looked and looked but I cannot figure out for the life of me how to make the Icon ontop and the words on the bottom of java menu items, The class A and Class C words need to be at the bottom of the pictures if possible.
A: You can paste any html code within java menu items.
For example:
["<img src='image.gif'> <br>Class A ","","","",""]
Q: I didn't specify link for the item, but the problem is the mouse cursorchanges to a hand, when the item of the web navigation bar (not link) is mouse over.
A: Unfortunately there is no way to change cursor for items with links and without links.
You can try to use <a> tag inside the text field:
["<a href="http://domain.com/index.html">test</a>","",""]
Set default cursor:
var titemCursor="default";
Q: Extremely new at this and likely way over my head…..but why when I attempt to use my own button image in the “itemBack Image” selection under “Edit Individual Styles” does it keep showing up blank in the preview screen?
A: Please, check all your paths.
You can also use additional parameters to make menu paths absolute:
var pathPrefix_img = "http://domain.com/images/";
var pathPrefix_link = "http://domain.com/pages/";
These parameters allow to make images and links paths absolute.
For example:
var pathPrefix_img = "http://domain.com/images/";
var pathPrefix_link = "http://domain.com/pages/";
var menuItems = [
["text", "index.html", "icon1.gif", "icon2.gif"],
];
So, link path will be look so:
http://domain.com/pages/index.html
Images paths will be look so:
http://domain.com/images/icon1.gif
http://domain.com/images/icon2.gif
Please, try to use these parameters.
