Q: How do I open a PDF document in a new window? Is this in the Item Parameters window?
A: You can specify target parameter for each item
["|Open file","file.pdf", "", "", "", "_blank", "", "", "", ],
If you want to use context menu you can try to write your menuItems in the following way:
["|<a href='file.pdf' target='_blank'>Open file</a>","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
But you should create correct style for <a> tag.
Q: I am currently tasked with creating a large intra-type net for our company. ( knowledge base, FAQ etc. for internal use only ).
At this time I am making plain text or table based menus and getting tired of having to add the drop menus to EVERY page individually in our little intra-web. I would like to purchase software that makes groovy looking menus, but also get the information needed to have them appear on ALL pages after editing the menu once if you know what I mean.
Unfortunately my web authoring experience is best suited to circa-1996 web pages I can hash out in notepad in my sleep. However, I have been told in order to do what I am doing I need to use CSS or styles or cascading stylesheets and not sure if your software will do that.
If I purchase this software and whip up a neat little menu, would you be able to send me information on how to include it in a css as I described above? I would essentially need to know the code or commands to have it appear in all of the pages I create, once I make the menu file. If that is something you can assist me with, I can purchase this right away.
A: Deluxe Menu is Javascript code only. It requires several .js files andit's generated on a client side.
If you don't want to create your drop menus on each page, you can try to useframes, the menu has a cross-frame mode. Also you can use aserver-side script (php, asp, vb, etc.) to generate html pages fromtemplates on your server.
Q: How can I remove the vertical lines that connect the + signs in my javascript slide out menu. I do want to keep the -+ signs but just not the virticle lines.
A: See the following javascript slide out menu parameters:
// Lines
var tpoints = 1;
var tpointsImage = "vpoint.gif";
var tpointsVImage = "hpoint.gif";
var tpointsCImage = "cpoint.gif";
If you don't want to use lines you should set:
// Lines
var tpoints = 0;
var tpointsImage = "";
var tpointsVImage = "";
var tpointsCImage = "";
Q: I bought your product Deluxe Menu.
I wanted to ask you for this problem:
I'd like to put on my home page two java menu examples, one in the right side and one in the left side. I tried to create two java menu examples and put them in the home page with the command PHP include, but the menus don't work correctly. I think the menus search for the same javascript function and so there are problems. How can I solve this kind of problem?
A: You can use as many java menu examples as you want on the same page.
But notice that you should call dmWorkPath parameter and dmenu.js fileon the page only once.
