Q: Could you tell me if this drop down menus javascript work with Japanese fonts?
A: If you are using a Japanese system then everything should render correctly.
If you are using an English system with a Japanese IME then you willneed to set the font in the Tuner to one that supports the characters you require.
Q: I try to fix the height of the submenu "Zone Climatiques" to 400px but I didn't find the way to do this. It worked by setting var smHeight=400px but that setting set all submenus. I would like set only the height of "Zone climatiques" submenu.
Thanks for your help.
A: You should create Individual Style
var menuStyles = [
["menuBackColor=transparent","menuBorderWidth=0","itemSpacing=1","itemPadding=0px 5px 0px 5px"],
["smHeight=400px"],
];
and assign it to the first item in submenu
["3101 - Ste-Anne-Des-Monts","ProcessClimaticZone/edit.do?id=3101,2003-11-13", , , , , ,"1","stationSubMenu.htm?climaticZoneId=3101,2003-11-13",],
Q: There is one other issue I am hoping you can help with? When the dhtml web menu drops down in Safari over a SWF -- it disappears. I have added the function dm_ext_ruleObjectHide() code to the top of my data file. Can you please advise what else I can try?
A: Submenu couldn't overlap flash in Safari correctly.
And the following code:
// Safari detect
if ((parseInt(navigator.productSub)>=20020000) &&(navigator.vendor.indexOf('Apple Computer') != -1) &&(navigator.product=='Gecko'))
return true;
in function
function dm_ext_ruleObjectHide()
{
// Safari detect
if ((parseInt(navigator.productSub)>=20020000) &&(navigator.vendor.indexOf('Apple Computer') != -1) &&(navigator.product=='Gecko'))
return true;
else
return false;
}
cause flash to disappear in Safari.
You can try to write this function in the following way:
function dm_ext_ruleObjectHide()
{
return false;
}
Q: I'm trying out your menus, and I seem to have a problem with changing the title of a menu item. If the text is something like "Create a New Event" the entire menu spreads out and the rollover image starts replicating itself behind it, instead fo stretching with the text. So I see 1 /2 rollover images for that top level item, instead of just the one, width it's width spread out to accomodate the extra text.
I've tried the Styles bit, but that doesn't seem to fix the rollover image any...
Any pointers ?
A: You can try to set the exact width for each menu item using IndividualItem Styles.
You should use Individual Item Styles.
For example:
var itemStyles = [
["itemWidth=120","itemBorderWidth=1","itemBorderStyle=solid,solid"], //style0
["itemWidth=100","itemBorderWidth=1","itemBorderStyle=solid,solid"], //style1
["itemWidth=130","itemBorderWidth=1","itemBorderStyle=solid,solid"], //style2
["itemWidth=150","itemBorderWidth=1","itemBorderStyle=solid,solid"], //style3
];
["Home","testlink.htm"],
["Samples","testlink.htm"],
["|Group 1","", , , , , "0", , , ],
["|Group 2","", , , , , "1", , , ],
["|Group 3","", , , , , "2", , , ],
...
[" More Samples","testlink.htm"],
["|Group 1","", , , , , "3", , , ],
["|Group 2","", , , , , "1", , , ],
Where "0", "1", "2", "3" - style number in itemStyles.
You also should check the width of your rollover image. It should bethe same width as your items.
You can also use
tags in the item text, for example:
var menuItems = [
["line 1
line 2"],
];
Or you can set this parameter:
var noWrap=0;
Try that.
