Q: Is there a way to change the height of the main buttons in Dhtml Menu. When I use the GUI tool there is nowhere to change the main button height. And when I tried to change it in the script file, it did me no good. I want all of the main buttons to be the same size.
A: You can use standard <img> object to set menu height, for example:
var menuItems = [
[" <img src='blank.gif' width=1 height=50>text"],
];
Q: What I would like to see is the ability to have a base site navigation menu with all the definitional entries (size, locations, icons, etc.) defined but all the menuitems be called from an Ajax file.
A: You cannot use ajax submenus for the top items.
But you can use several .js file, for example:
params.js //file with all menu parameters (size, locations, icons, etc.)
all code before
var menuItems = [
...
];
dm_init();
data_ajax1.js //data files for ajax submenus
data_ajax2.js
data_ajax3.js
...
main_data.js - data file with the following code:
var menuItems = [
["Item 1","", "", "", "", "", "0", "0", "data_ajax1.js", "", "", ],
["Item 2","", "", "", "", "", "0", "0", "data_ajax2.js", "", "", ],
["Item 3","", "", "", "", "", "0", "0", "data_ajax3.js", "", "", ],
["Item 4","", "", "", "", "", "0", "0", "data_ajax4.js", "", "", ],
];
dm_init();
You can also place this code into your html page directly (in the place where you want tohave a menu):
<script type="text/javascript">
var menuItems = [
["Item 1","", "", "", "", "", "0", "0", "data_ajax1.js", "", "", ],
["Item 2","", "", "", "", "", "0", "0", "data_ajax2.js", "", "", ],
["Item 3","", "", "", "", "", "0", "0", "data_ajax3.js", "", "", ],
["Item 4","", "", "", "", "", "0", "0", "data_ajax4.js", "", "", ],
];
dm_init();
Q: I was trying to figure something out myself but after a lot of hours I decided I will contact you.
I am working on a javascript collapsing menu and I am using the XP style one.
I don’t know why but the align of the text is not moving to the right side (because in Israel we write from right to left)
The sub-menu works great and all the text align to the right but from some reason the title is unmovable.
Please if you know any solution to that problem?
A: See how you can create your top javascript collapsing menu items:
- you can set the following parameter:
var tXPAlign="right"; //align of expand-buttons of submenus titles
- write your top items:
["+<div align=right> Deluxe Tree: XP Style</div>","", "", "", "", "XP Title Tip", "", "0", "", "", ],
Q: I would like the cursor to change to a hand when over a drop down menu link...
A: Try to set this parameter to your drop down menu:
var itemCursor="pointer";
