Recent Questions

Q: Does this mean that nothing needs to be installed on the server side to make javascript menu?

Here is why I am asking this:

We have a main "corporate" web site, which is going to use the Deluxe Menu. One of the links on the main site will launch a page, which is running on a separate web server (physically separate server, and not a load-balancing scenario). Since all of these pages should look identical to the users, they all have to use the exact same configuration and look&feel in Deluxe Menu. I was wondering if any "configuration" type settings are stored on the server. In other words, would we have to maintain the Deluxe Menu install on two separate servers?

A: There is no need to install anything on your server. You should onlycopy a folder with all engine files (dmenu.js, dmenu_add.js, ...) anddata file on your server. Then you should call these files on yourpages, for example:

<body>
<script type="text/javascript">  var dmWorkPath="menu.files/";</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="menu.files/dmenu.js"></script>
...
<script type="text/javascript" src="data.js"></script>

> maintain the Deluxe Menu install on two separate servers?
Actually you can copy deluxe menu files on the one server only anduse absolute paths.

Q: Is there a javascript API for the expandable menu tree to fire an user click event so the browser will load proper page accordingly? I looked around the current APIs from your site and could not find one.

Please advise.

A: You can use dtreet_ext_userClick (itemID) function.
See more info:

http://deluxe-tree.com/functions-info.html

Actually you can use your own Javascript code instead standard links and html code inside item text. For example:

  var tmenuItems = [
["text", "javascript:your_code_here"]
];

or

  var tmenuitems = [
["<div onClick='urlSubstitution(\'transco/sheet.asp?stype=1\')'>Table of Contents</div>", ""]
];


Q: When I maximize the screen the popup windows appear to open below taskbar.
Is there a setting to correct this so that windows always appear above the cascading navigation bar?

A: You should set the following parameter to show submenus above the top items:

  var subMenuVAlign="bottom";

But notice that if there will be no enough space above the menu your submenus will be
shown under the menu.


Q: We are testing your css drop down menu and everything is fine, except for the slow load in IE7.
After the page is loaded, the first time we open each item it takes a lot of time to appear.

Do you have any solution for this problem?

A: Check that you've set the following parameter:

  var dm_writeAll=0;

You can also try to turn off transitional effects:
  var transition=-1;

And adjust the following parameters:
  var smShowPause=100;
  var smHidePause=500;
