Q: How do I make the top nav buttons exactly the same width for each button?
Total menu width is 743px and I have 6 buttons I want the width of each button to be fixed at 123px.
I set var menuWidth="743" but it averages out the buttons based on the text.
A: You should use individual item styles. For example:
var itemStyles = [
["itemWidth=123px"], //style 0
];
var menuItems = [
["Home","testlink.html", , , , , "0", , , ], //style 0
["Product Info","", "deluxe-menu.files/icon1.gif", "deluxe-menu.files/icon1o.gif", , , "0", , , ], //style 0
Q: I am a web designer and considering purchase of your product. I have downloaded a trial dhtml menu version, but no image files were created. Other programs I have tried exported html, js file, & image files. What's the deal?
Please help!
A: I'm not sure I understand you.
You should create your menu in Deluxe Tuner app (you can also usetemplates). Then you should save your menu as .js file (click "yes" tosave all files for the menu). You also can save your menu into htmlpage.
Q: Obviously your menus are NOT cross browser usable, as you can e.g. Padding does not work in opera, while it works in IE.
When will there be an update on that bug?
A: Deluxe Menu works fine in all browsers.
Try to set exact width for the menu width and menu height, try also to specify unitsin "px":
var menuWidth="500px";
var menuHeight="20px";
var smWidth="116px";
You should also check your padding parameter, you should write it so:
var itemPadding="1px 1px 1px 12px";
Q: I am evaluating De Luxe menu. We perhaps like to become OEM distributor.
But I have a question.
In a website i would like to align 3 menu items to the left of the page and the other items to the right.
The 3 items to the left have a different style. But all have a fixed width.
I tried to define a spacer between the items but this didn't work out.
<script type="text/javascript"
src="/webos_net/dmenu/data.js"></script><script
type="text/javascript">
var menuItems = [
["Website","/webos_net/default2.aspx?site=website",,,"","_top","0"],
["MyNorma","/webos_net/default2.aspx?site=mynorma",,,"","_top","0"],
["BackOffice","/webos_net/default2.aspx?site=portal",,,"","_top","1"],
[" ","/webos_net/default2.aspx",,,"spacer","","2"],
["Zoek","",,,"",'main','3'],
["Stamgegevens","",,,"",'main','3'],
["Repartitie","",,,"",'main','3'],
["Beheer","",,,"",'main','3'],
]
dm_init();
I also defined itemstyles:
var itemStyles = [
//hoofdmenu
["itemWidth=50pt","itemBackImage=/images/topmenu1bg.jpg","fontColor=#444444,#444444"],
//hoofdmenu selected
["itemWidth=50pt","itemBackImage=/images/topmenu1bg.jpg","fontColor=#444444,#444444","itemBorderWidth=2","itemBorderColor=#ff0000,#ff0000"],
//spacer
["itemWidth=100%"],
//default menu
["itemWidth=100pt"],
];
Can you provide a java menu samples which shows left and right alignment of menu items is possible?
A: Unfortunately it is not correctly to write
["itemWidth=100%"],
in Individual Styles. It won't work. You can set the exact width forthis space, for example:
var itemStyles = [
["itemWidth=50pt","itemBackImage=/images/topmenu1bg.jpg,/images/topmenu1bg.jpg", "fontColor=#444444,#444444","showByClick=0"],
["itemWidth=50pt","itemBackImage=/images/topmenu1bg.jpg","fontColor=#444444,#444444", "itemBorderWidth=2","itemBorderColor=#ff0000,#ff0000"],
["itemWidth=220px","itemBackColor=transparent,transparent","itemBorderWidth=0", "itemBorderStyle=none,","showByClick=0"],
["itemWidth=100pt"],
];
var menuStyles = [
];
