Q: Typically in order to generate a menu with multiple layers I’d put a pipe character in front of the menu text.. For example:
["|Page Admin","/admin/handoutadmin.php", , , , "_new", , , , ],
["||Student Pages","/admin/handoutadmin.php?type=1", , , , "_new", , , , ],
["||Teacher Pages","/admin/handoutadmin.php?type=2", , , , "_new", , , , ],
["||Family Letters","/admin/handoutadmin.php?type=4", , , , "_new", , , , ],
["||Transparencies","/admin/handoutadmin.php?type=3", , , , "_new", , , , ],
However, when I try to do it with dm_ext_addItem it actually SHOWS the pipe character and doesn’t create any menu levels at all.
For example:
dm_ext_addItem(0, 0, ["Add a Handout to this Lesson", "", "", "", "", "", ""]);
dm_ext_addItem(0, 0, ["|Student Page","/admin/handoutadmin.php?type=$type", "", "", "", "_new", ""]);
dm_ext_addItem(0, 0, ["|Teacher Page","/admin/handoutadmin.php?type=$type", "", "", "", "_new", ""]);
How can I generate multiple levels of the menu with javascript?
A: I suppose that your code is not valid
dm_ext_addItem(0, 0, ["|Teacher Page", "/admin/handoutadmin.php?type=$type", "", "", "", "_new", ""]);
Try to write it in the following way:
dm_ext_addItem(0, 0, ["|Teacher Page", "/admin/handoutadmin.php?type=", "", "", "", "_new", ""]);
Q: Now it works fine in Firefox and mostly in IE.... Only problem... In IE...
When the page with dhtml tab menu first loads ... It does not load the content of the first DIV....
It's fine in Firefox...now IE just does not load the first div... I've tried added a JS function to set to visible the first DIV onLoad...but that does not work either...
Is there anyway to hard-code in ...to set the first DIV to visible?
A: I've just checked your website. Your dhtml tab menu work correctly.
You should check that you use correct value of
var bselectedItem=1;
parameter.
That is mean that second item in menuItems array will be highlighted.
["-","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ], //0
["About","content1", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ], //1
["FAQs","content2", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ], //2
["Before & Afters","content3", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ], //3
["Pre/Post Care","content4", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ], //4
["Special Offers","javascript:location.href = '../specials/index.htm'", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ], //5
Now you have also:
<script type="text/javascript" src="data-deluxe-tabs.js"></script>
<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0" width="500">
<tr>
<td align=center valign=top>
<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0" width=500 height=250 align=center>
<tr>
<td valign=top height=1>
<script type="text/javascript" src="../scripts/templates/tabs-opera.js"></script>
</td>
</tr>
I think that it is not correct. You should write:
<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0" width="500">
<tr>
<td align=center valign=top>
<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0" width=500 height=250 align=center>
<tr>
<td valign=top height=1>
<script type="text/javascript" src="data-deluxe-tabs.js"></script>
</td>
</tr>
Q: We are trying to evaluate your software for use on our redesigned website.
Dhtml scrolling menu look great in Firefox but when we open the same page in IE it is ugly.
A: The reason is in the following code:
<DIV id=header><IMG hspace=0 src="menu_files/nmwaLogoTop.gif" align=left border=0> </DIV>
Delete align=left from the <IMG> tag:
<DIV id=header><IMG hspace=0 src="menu_files/nmwaLogoTop.gif" border=0> </DIV>
Q: Another question on the "onePerSession" parameter of window onload popup. Is there some other condition to it? I set it on the popup but the popup keeps coming back up. Could it be related only to window that initially loads?
Another question. I have a page with numerous popup windows. Could there be some strategy to having the opening a subsequent popup opening closing a previous one, so there would only be one popup at a time?
Comment; I found that I could combined multiple popup data.js files (the above webpage) together and now I understand how I don't have to deal with the "skin" popup window.

It will appear only once per session. But if you open and close yourbrowser your window will appear again.You can send us a direct link to your website, so we can check it.

You can use the same window and change its content usingdeluxePopupWindow.open() function.
