Q: Can you please give me an example of how I would return the full path to the selected item of the web site menu?
A: See the following example:
function getFullPath(mInd){
var result='';
// get pressed item
var params = dm_ext_getMenuParams(mInd);
if (!(params[2]>=0)) return '';
function getPathForItem(mInd,smInd,itInd){
// get for this item
var params = dm_ext_getItemParams(mInd,smInd,itInd);
var result = params[2]+ '('+ params[3]+')';
// find root item id
if (smInd <= 0) return result;
params = dm_ext_getSubmenuParams(mInd,smInd);
for ( var smInd_=0;smInd_ for ( var itInd_=0;itInd_ itParam = dm_ext_getItemParams(mInd,smInd_,itInd_);
if (itParam[0]=arams[2])// id
return result + '->' + getPathForItem(mInd,smInd_,itInd_);
}
}
return result;
};
return getPathForItem(mInd,params[1],params[2]);
}
Q: We would like it so when you click on an option in the free dhtml menu, the page shows up in the main middle frame..So far, I can only seem to get it to show up in its own page.
A: You should set the correct target parameter for your items.
You can set target parameter for all items:
var itemTarget="main";
Where main - is the name of the main middle frame where you want to open the link.
["Home","testlink.html", "", "", "", "main", "", "", "", "", "", ], Q: The xml drop down menu gets at the back of the flash..Can you tell us the problem?
A: You can try to add the following parameters for flash objects:
<PARAM NAME=wmode VALUE=opaque> and WMODE="opaque" for <EMBED>
It allows to overlap a flash movie by other layers.
For example:
<OBJECT classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000"
codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,0,0" WIDTH="120" HEIGHT="40">
<PARAM NAME=movie VALUE="data-samples/flash-deluxe-menu.swf">
<PARAM NAME=quality VALUE=best>
<PARAM NAME=bgcolor VALUE=#FFFFFF>
lt;param name="wmode" value="opaque">
<EMBED src="data-samples/flash-deluxe-menu.swf" quality=best wmode="opaque" bgcolor=#FFFFFF WIDTH="120" HEIGHT="40"NAME="data-samples/flash-deluxe-menu" TYPE="application/x-shockwave-flash" PLUGINSPAGE="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer">
</EMBED>

Q: I was using the trial version with no problems. However, once I upgraded to the full version as above, I am having problems getting my DHTML menus to work properly. I'm using xp pro with ie7. As I said before, I had no problems with the trial version.
Whenever I click on a menu java tab now, ie7 displays an error message in the corner. When clicked it reads:
Line: 18
Char: 16940
Error: 'tabs[...]id' is null or not an object
Code: 0
I am using the 'Microsoft Like Style' tabs template in your DHTML tuner software. I get no errors when the tabs are not linked to hidden <div> tags. However, when they are linked to display the hidden <div> tags I get the error. But they do still display the correct hidden <div> tags after 2 or 3 clicks.
A: Try to set the following menu java parameter:
var bselectedSmItem=0;
