Javascript Menu. DHTML Menu.

  • Use a mouse to move a menu as a usual window. Also you can create the menu where each submenu can be "separated" from the menu (MS Office toolbar-like mode).
  • When the page is scrolled the menu remains visible. The menu can "float" along one or two coordinate axes.
  • There can be multilevel menus - create as many rows of the menu as necessary. Any submenu in its turn can include different number of columns.

Q: I figure I'm missing something basic ....

I've created a simple horizontal menu and uploaded the various files to to my website go generate the bar food menu

How do I add content to each tab rollovers so that the content will appear on this same page (as opposed to having to move to another page)?

i.e. when you click on starters, you see the starter below,
when you click on mains you see the mains below
etc. etc.

I'm new to this .....

A: You should paste your content in the <div> .. </div> tags.

<div id="content1" style=" visibility: hidden;" class="tabPage">
<br><br><br>
<p align=center><img src="img/logo_DM.gif" width=262 height=56 alt="Deluxe-Menu.com"></p>
</div>

<div id="content2" style="visibility: hidden;" class="tabPage">
<br><br><br>
<p align=center><img src="img/logo_DT.gif" width=262 height=56 alt="Deluxe-Tree.com"></p>

</div>

<div id="content3" style=" visibility: hidden;" class="tabPage">
<br><br><br>
<p align=center><img src="img/logo_DTabs.gif" width=254 height=58 alt="Deluxe-Tabs.com"></p>
</div>

See in Deluxe Tabs there are two modes:

1.   var tabMode=0;
You can create only one level of tabs and assign Object Id's of theDIV's to show when you click on the tab rollovers.

["XP Tab 1","content1", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["XP Tab 2","content2", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["XP Tab 3","content3", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["XP Tab 4","content4", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],

2.   var tabMode=1;
You can assign only links in this mode.
You should create top level items with subitems.

["XP Tab 1","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
     ["|Link 1_1","http://deluxe-tabs.com", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
     ["|Link 1_2","testlink.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
     ["|Link 1_3","testlink.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
     ["|Link 1_4","testlink.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
     ["|Link 1_5","testlink.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["XP Tab 2","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
     ["|Link 2_1","testlink.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
     ["|Link 2_2","testlink.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
     ["|Link 2_3","testlink.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
     ["|Link 2_4","testlink.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
     ["|Link 2_5","testlink.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["XP Tab 3","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
     ["|Link 3_1","testlink.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
     ["|Link 3_2","testlink.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
     ["|Link 3_3","testlink.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
     ["|Link 3_4","testlink.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
     ["|Link 3_5","testlink.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],

You can use Object ID as well as Link in both modes. Use the following prefixes within item's link field:
"object:" - means that there is object id after it;
"link:" - means that there is a link after it.
"javascript:" - means that there is a javascript code after it, for example:javascript:alert(\'Hello!\')

So, you should write for example:

 ["|Link 1_1","object:Content1_1", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],


Q: In IE 6.0 and Firefox 1.5.0.4, the dropdown submenus are not visible and it does not float in firefox (floats in IE but no submenus) whereas in Opera 8.53 and Opera 9 it works fully.


A: Now you have two entries of dmenu.js file on your site in the <head> and <body> tags.
You must have only one entry of dmenu.js file.
You should write so:

...
<body>

<script type="text/javascript">  var dmWorkPath = "http://www.gaurangapada.org/data.files/";</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.gaurangapada.org/data.files/dmenu.js"></script>

</body>

Please, delete the same code from the tag.

Now you have:
  var transparency="0";
That is why you can't see your subitems.

Please, write, for example, so:
  var transparency="80";


Q: I now have the need to introduce separators on the menu.
Can you tell me how to do that?
I cannot find any documentation telling me how this is done.


A: Please, see the following parameters:

//--- Separators
  var separatorImage=""; //for subitems
  var separatorWidth="5";
  var separatorHeight="100%";
  var separatorAlignment="right";
  var separatorVImage="images/public/separator.gif"; //for the top items
  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'm about to create a transparent menu as you can see on the attached photo. I can't find any samples on how to place the cascading navigation bar on an image with 100% opacity. Is it possible...?

A: To create a transparent menu you should set transparent value for the following parameters:

  var menuBackColor="transparent";
  var itemBackColor=["transparent","transparent"];
