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: How do I highlight the current tab in a hover tab menu?

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 it 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>

Try that.


Q: I am trying out your program and it's really sweet. I have 1 little problem. I created the menu everything works in IE7. In firefox the menu is about 4 or 5 px longer. It seems like in firefox there is a border around each top level item although I have set all borders to 0 (I can see that because I have set roolover color of background to opposite of normal color)


A: Try to set exact width for the menu in "px".

For example:
  var menuWidth="600px";


Q: I have set it to:

  var tlevelDX=0;

It has helped somewhat but there still is a gap between the left side and the image icon. Is there any other parameter I can alter to push it more to the left?

A: You can try also to set the following parameters:

  var texpandBtn=["","",""];
  var texpandBtnW=0;
  var texpandBtnH=0;



Q: My question is, the down arrows only show on the main page, how do I fix this.


A: Please, check images paths within data .js file.
For example, if you have data.js file here:

c:/website/data.js

and your images are stored here:

c:/website/images/

you should set image name so (for example):

  var arrowImageMain = ["images/arrow1.gif", "images/arrow2.gif"];

If you use Tuner, you should save data .js file before you'll selectimages. When you save .js file it means that you set a root directoryfor the project, so Tuner can make all selected images with relativepaths.
