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.

Q: I have the dynamic dropdown menu working perfectly on the main page of the website, but when I try to install it onto html files that appear in subfolders of the site, the images do not appear. I have put ../ before all the links I can find and have the following codes placed in my file, what am I doing wrong?

A: You can use additional parameters to make dynamic dropdown menu paths absolute:

  var pathPrefix_img = "http://domain.com/images/";
  var pathPrefix_link = "http://domain.com/pages/";

These parameters allow to make images and links paths absolute.For example:

  var pathPrefix_img = "http://domain.com/images/";
  var pathPrefix_link = "http://domain.com/pages/";

  var menuItems = [
["text", "index.html", "icon1.gif", "icon2.gif"],
];

So, link path will be look so:
http://domain.com/pages/index.html

Images paths will be look so:
http://domain.com/images/icon1.gif
http://domain.com/images/icon2.gif

Please, try to use these parameters.



Q: In our application we want to have the drop down menu configured inside IFrame but still visible on the page. Currently the menu slides down inside the iframe,
Is this scenario configurable.


A: Deluxe Menu don't work with <IFrame> objects. They work with<frameset> objects only.
All they can to do with <IFrame> is to loadpages into it.


Q: I've noticed something strange in the Deluxe Tree and I am wondering if this is normal.

Here's an example I have in my "data.js" file to populate the javascript ajax tree:

  var tmenuItems = [

["Mes alertes/My alerts","", "", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
 ["|Francais","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "js/AjaxTreeFr.js", ],
 ["|English","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "js/AjaxTreeEn.js", ],
];

Here's basically how it goes:

- Basically the "0" represents a pre-built style that I have set for the root of my tree.

- Under this are the first child of the root called "Francais" and "English" which I link with a JS file to populate (Because the users will customize the alerts they want to see).

This works perfectly fine. But it is a workaround. Let me explain what I wanted in the first place:

  var tmenuItems = [
["Mes alertes ","", "", "", "", "", "", "0", "", " js/AjaxTreeFr.js ", ],
["My alerts","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "js/AjaxTreeEn.js", ],
];

Basically I wanted to have 1 javascript ajax tree with 2 root items "Mes alertes" and "My alerts" but it seems impossible to attach a js file to the root of the tree view. (It doesn't get populated).

Any ideas?

A: See AJAX feature won't work for first-level in XP style now.

It works if you use:
  var tXPStyle=0;


Q: I am trying to setup a popup tab menu like the one that you have on top part of your web pages (containing items; "Home", "Product Info", "Sample"...).

Right now I am using <div id=""> tag to load everything and break the content into each tab, but it is taking a long time to load everything first then break them down into tabs. So I thought maybe having each tab's content in each page, and have a link to each page would be more efficient. But when I put a link for each tab, for example "link:www.google.com" I get an javascript error saying "tabs[...].id is null or not an object". When I test this straight from Deluxe Tuner, I get the same message.

Can you tell me what I am doing wrong here? Or is there any better way to solve my problem? Thanks in advance.

A: Check that you have style=" visibility: hidden;" for your DIVs
<div id="content1" style=" visibility: hidden; height: 400px;" class="tabPage">

> But when I put a link for each tab, for example
> "link:www.google.com" I get an javascript error saying "tabs[...].id is
You should write:
link:http://www.google.com
