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 your users normally indicate which page a web visitor is on, by using your navigation bar submenu?

A: Deluxe 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, for
example:

<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.



Q: I am having trouble getting my tabs to link to a div id...should I beusing a certain target? I have attached my html file and data.js file.The links won't work.

A: You can use links if you have

  var tabMode=1;

only.

If you have
  var tabMode=0;

You should use the ID of the DIV.



Q: I'm trying to shrink the vertical size of the sub-menu entries in my menu:

I think I've specified all the parameters correctly in data.js, but itТs hard to tell what affects the height of the submenu entries. Even reducing the type from 10pt to 8pt didnТt shrink them at all.


A: See, you set the following parameter:

  var itemPadding = 7;

That is why you have such a big padding around the items.

If you don't want to change the appearance of the main items youshould create Individual Style for the subitems. For example:

  var menuStyles = [
["itemPadding=2px"],
];

And assign this style for the first item in submenu.


Q: There is the possibility in the dhtml menu bars that an item has access control, that is is visible or not depending of the user?

A: You can use Javascript API and write your own code.

See more info here:
http://deluxe-menu.com/functions-info.html

You can use
dm_ext_changeItem (menuInd, submenuInd, itemInd, iParams)
to disable your items or
dm_ext_changeItemVisibility (menuInd, submenuInd, itemInd, visibility)
to hide your items.Try that.
