Q: Click on the option "telefoonlijst" and a submenu has to pop-down… whay is this done not OVER the other object (e.e. the 'frameDESKTOP')

Click index2.htm to see the code is working when the top-frame is 120 pix large!


A: Please, see how you should install the menu in cross-frame mode:

http://deluxe-menu.com/cross-frame-mode-sample.html

Unfortunately, Deluxe Menu can work within 1 frameset only. It can't work within nested framesets.

Notice that you should add dmenu_cf.js file in the folder where your menu is created in.


Q: Can I ask a technical question? I am using the menu in a frameset, and I would like for the drop down menu selected branch to sty highlighted after the user moves the mouse to another window (where the menu brings up a new page), just so the user knows where he/she is. Is that possible?

A: But if you open links in the another frame (window) the initial frame with your menu isnot reloaded, so the clicked item will be highlighted.
You should set the following parameters:
  var ttoggleMode=1;
  var tpressedFontColor="#AAAAAA";

You can also set the following parameter to save menu state:
  var tsaveState=1;
  var tsavePrefix="menu1";

If you install the menu without frames. On your pages you should call the following function/functions to expand/highlight items, for example:

<script>
dtreet_ext_expandItem (dtreet_ext_getItemIDByIndex (0, 0), 1);
dtreet_ext_setPressedItem (0, dtreet_ext_getItemIDByIndex (0, 1));
</script>

Q: I downloaded the new version of dhtml menu source code copied the files over to my folder this menu was made with3.0 the files I copied over is 3.2 and now I get an error.

A: Now you have:

  var fontStyle=["nirmal 12px Trebuchet MS, Tahoma","nirmal 12px Trebuchet MS, Tahoma"];

It is not correct. You should write:

  var fontStyle=["normal 12px Trebuchet MS, Tahoma","normal 12px Trebuchet MS, Tahoma"];



Q: Expandable javascript menu doesn't actually affect the plus/minus icon I have specified. Any ideas?

A: It is not correctly to add expand/collapse buttons into the iconfield, they won't work. You should add icons there.

To add expand/collapse buttons you should use the followingparameters:

  var texpandBtn=["img/expandbtn.gif","img/expandbtn.gif","img/collapsebtn.gif"];
  var texpandBtnW=14;
  var texpandBtnH=14;
  var texpandBtnAlign="left";
