Q: Last, I couldn't solve the issue I meet when I set up a long name for an dhtml side menu item: next item overlaps. Is it possible to specify the width of an item?
A: You can try to use the following dhtml side menu parameters to use combinedbackground for your items:
var beforeItemImage = [,]; //left-side image for normal and mouse over state
var itemBackImage = [,]; //background or image for normal and mouse over state
var afterItemImage = [,]; //right-side image for normal and mouse over state
var beforeItemImageW = '';
var afterItemImageW = '';
var beforeItemImageH = '';
var afterItemImageH ='';
But you should create a small images in any Graph Editor, for example:
button_n_back.gif
button_n_left.gif
button_n_right.gif
button_o_back.gif
button_o_left.gif
button_o_right.gif
Q: I'm trying to figure out how I can tie in this code loan_profile.asp?id= into the link on the tree menu, for example:
["|Loan Profile", "../pipeline/loan_profile.asp?id=<%=rsLoans("loan_id")%>", "", "", "", "", "", "2"],
When I try this and then test it in the browser the menu doesn't even show up and it says that there's an error... what can I do to fix this? Please get back ASAP. Thanks!
A: Try to write your code in the following way:
["|Loan Profile","../pipeline/loan_profile.asp?id=<%=rsLoans('loan_id')%>", "", "","", "", "", "2"],
Q: I'm trying out your cool dropdown menu code.
I'm trying to rebuild my menu like this one
http://deluxe-menu.com/data-templates/vista-style-3-03-template-sample.html
I have a problem. In my case, I have some really long labels and some short ones. In some cases my text is larger than the button (see attachment). In your example all the buttons have the same width. Is it possible to have a Vista styled menu with different width for the buttons?
A: See images in Vista Templates have the fixed width and height (92 x 21).
If you want to change items' width/height you should change images.
btn_cyan.gif
btn_cyan2.gif
You can do it in any graph editor, for example in Adobe PhotoShop.
You should also change items width in your Individual Item Style.
var itemStyles = [
["itemWidth=92px","itemBorderWidth=0","fontStyle=normal 11pxTahoma","fontColor=#FFFFFF,#FFFFFF","itemBackImage=btn_cyan.gif,btn_cyan2.gif"],
];
You can do it in Deluxe Tuner.
Q: Two questions. First I get a "Error! Skin Load!" popup when my onmouseover popup window loads.
I see references to "skin.js". Is this supposed to be generated?
Secondly.
I am being really dense. I would like to use Deluxe Popup Windows in response to a mouse click on a picture. So far with deluxe Menu, I just put a statement like this:
<script type="text/javascript" src="rvmonitor.js"></script>
where I wanted the menu to show up. The web page loads and the Deluxe Menu displays.
I have managed to make the onmouseover popup window appear by using that code, the web page loads and the popup loads (with the skin error).
I know how to get a larger picture from a smaller one like this:
<a href="../images/Tige/CabinetMod/Tige_CabinetMod04.JPG">
<img class="border0" src="../images/Tige/CabinetMod/Tige_CabinetMod04_small.JPG" alt="Gasketmount">></a>
I just don't know how to put the rvmonitor.js into the <a href...></a> function. Could I have a simple example?
A: See, to install Deluxe Popup Window you should call two .js files onyour page:
<head>
...
<script type="text/javascript" src="deluxe-popup-window.files/dpopupwindow.js"></script> //engine file
</head>
<body>
...
<script type="text/javascript" src="deluxe-popup-window.js"></script> //data file
...
</body>
Copy deluxe-popup-window.files folder and deluxe-popup-window.js fileinto the same folder with your html page.
To open your window on mouse click you should do the following things:
<a title="Click to open the window" href="javascript:;"onclick="deluxePopupWindow.open('win', '<img class=\'border0\'src=\'../images/Tige/CabinetMod/Tige_CabinetMod04.JPG\' alt=\'Gasketmount\'>', 'Full Image', 'width=180,height=270,resizable,scrollbars=no,middle,right,fade-effect', 'windowsvista_graphite')"><imgmount\'>class="border0" src="../images/Tige/CabinetMod/Tige_CabinetMod04_small.JPG" alt="Gasket mount"></a>.
