Javascript Menu. DHTML Menu.

  • Tune menu parameters manually or using Deluxe Tuner. Then add several rows of a code within html page - your menu is ready!
  • Use special JavaScript functions for: Dynamic changing of items (text, link, icons and even individual style!). Making a menu item active/inactive. Addition/removing of items. Changing of visibility of items. Getting the information on any menu, submenu and items. Other tricks.
  • Opportunity to control the menu from the keyboard.
  • Cross-frame mode allows you to build full-featured menus on the pages that use frame-based structure. But for all that it's not necessary to insert any additional code into all the pages - just specify some additional parameters of the menu.

Recent Questions

Q: If you click a list drop menu link in the tree that opens a new page, for example, Solutions:By Type:Psuedo Wire , the link, Psuedo Wire, remains highlighted.

If you click a line that targets _self, for example, Solutions: By Type: T1 Extender, the link does not remain highlighted. My web app will need highlighting and all links will target _self. I have to solve this problem soon or else look elsewhere.

A: It is normal behaviour, your list drop menu can save its state within one page only.

You can try to use frames, and open pages in the content frame. Also you can use aserver-side script (php, asp, vb, etc.) to generate html pages fromtemplates on your server (we use this method on our website
http://deluxe-tree.com).

You should set a pressed item using Javascript API:

function apyt_ext_setPressedItem(menuInd, itemID)

<script type="text/javascript"><br>

  var i = 4 //index of the selected item
onload=setPressed;
function setPressed()
{

dtreet_ext_setPressedItem(0,dtreet_ext_getItemIDByIndex(0, i));
}

</script>

To expand specific items you should use the following function: dtreet_ext_expandItem (dtreet_ext_getItemIDByIndex (0, 11), 1);



Q: I have been trying for months to find an answer to my submenu problem using your FAQ and Recent Questions.
The only thing that comes close to an answer is from one of your Recent Questions below, but I don't understand the answer. Will you please give me specific code or info to fix? Please refer to my frameset code and data.js info, which I've provided further down this message.

I am using cross frame menu dropdown. I have three frames: Top, Left and main (middle).

I am using the script and data from your sample file, it works fine. Only problem is submenu is offset to the right. It does not show up exactly down below the top javascript hide menu.

A: Yes, I suppose that the reason is in your frame structure. For examplenow you have:

top -------------------
       **MENU**
left--|main------------
       |
       | **submenus**
       |

Try to add additional frame in your top frame with the same width asyour left frame has:

l-top-|right-top-----------------
       | **MENU**
left--|main----------------------
       |
       | **submenus**
       |


Q: I want to remove the "Loading...", message when using AJAX to load pull down menu nodes. This is because it does not fit in with my colour scheme and sometimes it stays there when no more nodes are loaded.

A: Open dmenu_ajax.js file in any text editor.
Find and delete the following words:

visibility="visible";


Q: I can’t seem to figure out how to keep last clicked item in my java menu script marked.

I use these options:

pressedItem = -1

  var saveNavigationPath = 1;

Where and how do I determine the background color of the clicked item?

I also have this problem on Deluxe Tree.


A: The menu has only two states normal and mouseover.

Try to do the following things:

- delete   var pressedItem=1; parameter from your 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>

You can also 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.
