Q: I recently received a non-profit license for your product, and after I installed it and the 'trial version' label disappeared, two of my javascript menu frames started appearing "up", instead of "down" which is preferred.
The 'enrollment center' and the 'physician center' work fine. The 'volunteer center' and 'donor center' used to work correctly (down) before I updated to the non-profit license, but now they appear "up".
If you could please help me that would be great.
A: You should set the following parameter:
var subMenuVAlign="top";
Q: I'm interesting in dhtml menue ability to display a different color word on a menu item when the site is on that selected page
A: The menu has only two states normal and mouseover. We'll try to add the pressed state in the future.
You can set a pressed item using Javascript API:
function dm_ext_setPressedItem (menuInd, submenuInd, itemInd, recursion)
Sets a current pressed item.
menuInd - index of a menu on a page, >= 0.
submenuInd - index of a submenu, >= 0.
itemInd - index of an item, >=0.
recursion = true/false - highlight parent items.
But notice, to use dm_ext_setPressedItem() you should know ID of selected item and subitem. You can't get this ID after you reload your page. That is why you should write your own code on PHP.
Q: I have managed to insert a separator in a menu and set the image path but the separator image does not show.
Is there anything else I need to do?
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: I need to be able to highlight the selected menu en dhtml item of the Deluxe Menu.
A: Deluxe Menu has only two states normal and mouseover.
Try to do the following things:
- delete var pressedItem=1; parameter from your menu en dhtml data file
- set correct parameter on each page before you call data file, forexample:
<noscript><a href="http://deluxe-menu.com">Javascript Menu by Deluxe-Menu.com</a></noscript>
<script type="text/javascript"> var dmWorkPath = "menudir/";</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="menudir/dmenu.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript"> var pressedItem=3;</script>
...
<script type="text/javascript" src="menudir/data.js"></script>

function dm_ext_setPressedItem (menuInd, submenuInd, itemInd, recursion)

menuInd - index of a menu on a page, >= 0.
submenuInd - index of a submenu, >= 0.
itemInd - index of an item, >=0.
recursion = true/false - highlight parent items.
But notice, to use dm_ext_setPressedItem() you should know ID of selected item and subitem.
You can't get this ID after you reload your page. That is why you should write your own code on PHP.
