Q: What I have to do for the following problem:
When I press a tab, the new site will be load into the browser.
Great! BUT the pressed button is not be marked. Always the Tab 1 is blue. What's wrong??
A: This Tabs menu can save pressed item automatically within1 page only. If you open another page, the menu can't remember presseditem. You should do that manually using Javascript and menu parameters( var bselectedItem and var var bselectedSmItem) or using any server-side script (php, asp, etc.)
Deluxe Tabs doesn't support API functions which can return theselected tab.
If your site is written on PHP you can set "bselectedItem" and "varbselectedSmItem" parameters based on your link beforeyou call your data file.
For example, move "bselectedItem" and " var bselectedSmItem" parametersfrom your data file to your code.
<TD vAlign=top align=left>
/* Select Tab */
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript1.2">
var bselectedItem=<?php echo $seltabs; ?>;
var bselectedSmItem=<?php echo $selsmtabs; ?>;
</script>
<SCRIPT src="data.js" type=text/javascript></SCRIPT>
</TD>
You should define seltabs and selsmtabs using server side script.
You can also set on every page before you call data.js file, forexample:
<TD vAlign=top align=left>
/* Select Tab */
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript1.2">
var bselectedItem=4;
var bselectedSmItem=3;
</script>
<SCRIPT src="data.js" type=text/javascript></SCRIPT>
</TD>
Q: Is this transparent feature there for individual submenu styles or for individual menu items in scrolling menu? I want that.
A: See, you can use "transparent" value instead of any color in the mainmenu parameters and in Individual styles.
var menuBackColor="transparent";
var menuBorderColor="transparent";
var itemBackColor=["transparent","transparent"];
var itemBorderColor=["transparent","transparent"];
var moveColor="transparent";
var shadowColor="transparent";
var itemStyles = [
["itemBackColor=transparent,transparent","itemBorderColor=transparent,transparent"],
];
var menuStyles = [
["menuBackColor=transparent","menuBorderColor=transparent"],
];
Q: Hello. I'm trying your javascript expanding menu but cant get a clicked menu to stay highlighted. It works sometimes in Firefox but never in explorer.
With sometimes I mean that if I click a link and that paticular link leeds to nowhere, and i've to click the browsers back button.....then the link I clicked is highlighted when I return. If I make a link that leeds to a new page (with exactly the same code as was generated from delux tuner), then nothing is highlighted. Does this 'higlightstate' work at all?
A: Javascript expanding menu doesn't save a presseditem as it saves a tree state. It works within 1 page only and if youreload the page you should set a pressed item using Javascript API:
function apyt_ext_setPressedItem(menuInd, itemID)
<script type="text/javascript">
var I = 4 //index of the selected item
onload=setPressed;
function setPressed()
{
dtreet_ext_setPressedItem(0,dtreet_ext_getItemIDByIndex(0, i));
}
</script>
Q: I updated .js files and added var key to data file.
When I tested there is no nag tag. But the sub-menu no longer worked. (it worked before with "Trail Version" nag).
The status bar on IE shows "Error on page".
I am looking forward to your help.
A: Please, see menu parameters. Now you have:
var menuBorderWidth="";
var itemBorderWidth="";
You should write:
var menuBorderWidth=0;
var itemBorderWidth=0;
