Q: http://deluxe-tabs.com/file/templates/deluxe-tabs-style-5.html I like the transitional fade of onclick tab data between tabs of this menu, but I don't see anything in Transitional Effect variables to manipulate this.
A: You can set transitional effects in the "Transitional Effects"section in Deluxe Tuner.
//--- Transitional Effects
var btransition=24;
var btransOptions="";
var btransDuration=300;
Notice that Transitional Effects are supported by IE5.5+ only.Q: The dhtml floating menu does not align to the top of the column and it migrates as one scrolls up or down the page. I would like it to stay in one place.
A: 1) Add valign="top"> parameter for the TD tag with the menu:
<td valign="top">
<script type="text/javascript" src="welcome_files/frenchdata.js"></script>
2) Open your frenchdata.js file in any text editor (or Deluxe Tuner) and change:
var absolutePos=0;
var posX="20px";
var posY="120px";
to
var absolutePos=0;
var posX="0px";
var posY="0px";
3) To turn off the floating feature you should set the following parameter in yourfrenchdata.js file:
var floatable=0;Q: I am unable to see any separators when working with Deluxe Menu. I’ve looked at other templates and don’t see where they are implemented. Am I missing something? Thanks!
A: Please, see the following parameters:
//------- Separators -------
//--- Separators
var separatorImage="";
var separatorWidth="5";
var separatorHeight="100%";
var separatorAlignment="right";
var separatorVImage="images/public/separator.gif";
var separatorVWidth="3";
var separatorVHeight="100%";
var separatorPadding="";
You should set a separator in the menuItems, for example:
var menuItems = [
["Home","index.cfm", , , , , , , , ],
["-"],
["About Us","about.cfm", , , , , , , , ],
];
Try that.
Q: How I can write the changed dhtml pull down menu into a database?
A: Unfortunately, we don't have such example.
You may generate a menu from a database or XML using any server-side script, e.g., PHP, ASP, VB, etc.However, these scripts don't work inside of Javascript .js files, so, you should move parameters of a menu from a .js file into an html-page, e.g.:
<!-- Deluxe Tree -->
<noscript><a href="http://deluxe-tree.com">Javascript Tree Menu by Deluxe-Tree.com</a></noscript>
<script type="text/javascript" src="menudir/dtree.js"></script>
<!-- (c) 2006, http://deluxe-tree.com -->
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript1.2">
// and describe parameters of a menu
var parameter1=value1;
var parameter2=value2;
etc.
var tmenuItems = [
// here you generate items using server-side scripts (php, asp, vb, etc.)
];
</script>
The example of the menu working with PHP/MYSQL you can find here:

This example is not for Deluxe Tree menu, but you can create your menu in the same way.
