  • Use special Java Script methods for: Dynamic changing of items (link, text, icons, arrows and even individual style!). Addition/removing of items or submenus. Disabling and enabling menu items. Getting the info on every submenu, menu, and items. Changing appearance of items. Other coding tricks.

Recent Questions

Q: The popup menu gives the (first) menu of the top menu. I need of course for this to be the menu of the popup.


A: Installation of your menu is not correct.

Now you have:
1) There is no need to call dmenu_popup.js file. You should delete thefollowing line:
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript1.2" src="dmenu_popup.js"></script>

2) Where you call source_pop.js file for Popup menu?
You should add:
<SCRIPT language=JavaScript1.2 src="menu_files/source_pop.js"type=text/javascript></SCRIPT>

3) The ID of your Popup menu is 1. Now you have ID - 0.
<img src="testimage.gif" width="200" height="200" onClick="return dm_popup(0, 9000, event);" style="cursor:hand;">

you should write:
<img src="testimage.gif" width="200" height="200" onClick="returndm_popup(1, 9000, event);" style="cursor:hand;">


Q: I'm using onclick tabs and want to ask if it's possible to change the the z-index id?

A: To change z-index in Deluxe Tabs you should open dtabs.js file in anytext editor and find the following text "  var TLJ=2000;".
Here you should change the value.



Q: Will all your dhtml menu samples work cross-frame?


A: See how should you create cross frame menu:

1. To initialize the cross frame menu call dm_initFrame()
function instead of standard dm_init() function within data.js file:

dm_initFrame(framesetID, mainFrameInd, subFrameInd, orientation);

framesetID - id attribute of the frameset;
mainFrameInd - index of the main frame (where the top-menu is placed), >=0;
subFrameInd - index of the subframe (where the submenus will be shown), >=0;
orientation - frame orientaion: 0 - top-to-bottom, 1 - left-to-right; 2 - bottom-to-top; 3 - right-to-left.

So you should create your menu in Deluxe Tuner, save it.
Create html file with your frame set.

Set ID for the first frameset:
<FRAMESET id=frmSet rows=220,*>
<FRAME id=frame1 src="Deluxe Menu Samples_files/cross-frame-horizontal-1.htm"> //menu frame
<FRAME id=frame2 name=frame2 src="Deluxe Menu Samples_files/testlink.htm"> //content frame
</FRAMESET>

Then you should open your data file in any text editor and change
dm_init(); for example to dm_initFrame("frmSet", 0, 1, 0);

Q: I have been trying for months to find an answer to my submenu problem using your FAQ and Recent Questions.
The only thing that comes close to an answer is from one of your Recent Questions below, but I don't understand the answer. Will you please give me specific code or info to fix? Please refer to my frameset code and data.js info, which I've provided further down this message.

I am using cross frame menu dropdown. I have three frames: Top, Left and main (middle).

I am using the script and data from your sample file, it works fine. Only problem is submenu is offset to the right. It does not show up exactly down below the top javascript hide menu.

A: Yes, I suppose that the reason is in your frame structure. For examplenow you have:

top -------------------
       **MENU**
left--|main------------
       |
       | **submenus**
       |

Try to add additional frame in your top frame with the same width asyour left frame has:

l-top-|right-top-----------------
       | **MENU**
left--|main----------------------
       |
       | **submenus**
       |
