Q: I am trying to have the selected top item in the pop up menu remain on the mouseover event after it is selected.
It seemed to be working fine when i was just testing with # as a link
but when i actually linked to different pages it returns to normal.
How do i get this to work?
A: You can find more info here:
http://www.deluxe-menu.com/highlighted-items-sample.html
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, forexample:
<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: Shall I have to call the main egine file of the javascript menu maker - dmenu.js twice if I want to install two menus on the page.
The second script:
<script type="text/javascript" src="datatopnav.files/dmenu.js"></script>
Is for the top navigation menu, the datahscounseling is for the side menu. If I delete that line won't my top navigation be gone?
A: No, when you have several menus on the same page you should calldmenu.js file only once and then call several data files.
You should install the menus in the following way:
<head>
...
<noscript><a href=http://deluxe-menu.com/>Javascript Menu Maker by Deluxe-Menu.com</a></noscript>
<script type="text/javascript"> var dmWorkPath = "datahscounseling.files/";</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="datahscounseling.files/dmenu.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="datatopnav.files/dmenu.js"></script>
<!-- (c) 2007, http://deluxe-menu.com -->
...
</head>
<body>
...
<TD height=25 colSpan=3 class=style1>
<script type="text/javascript" src="datatopnav.js"></script></TD>
...
<td width="180" height="307" rowspan="2" valign="top" bgcolor="ffffff"><div align="left">
<script type="text/javascript" src="datahscounseling.js"></script></DIV>
...
</body>
Both menu will work correctly in that case.
See the example I've sent you. It works fine.
You can find more info about installation of several menus on thesingle page:
http://deluxe-menu.com/installation-info.htmlQ: I'm trying to display the submenus to the left of the vertical navigation bar.
A: Try to use the following parameter:
var subMenuAlign = "left";
Q: I ordered & installed the dhtml collapsable menu.
I can't seem to get the floating function to work. Here's how I have the variables set in the data-tree.js file:
var tfloatable = 1;
var tfloatIterations = 10;
var tfloatableX = 0;
var tfloatableY = 1;
And here are the links to the .js files in my HTML doc <head>:
<!-- Deluxe Tree -->
<noscript><a href="http://deluxe-tree.com">JavaScript Tree Menu by Deluxe-Tree.com</a> </noscript>
<script type="text/javascript"> var tWorkPath="tree-menu/";</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="tree-menu/dtree.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="tree-menu/dtree_add.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="tree-menu/dtree_ajax.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="tree-menu/dtree_dyn.js"></script>

Please let me know if there are any other settings that need to be changed. I'm hoping to go live with this site wed. so a quck reply is appreciated.
A: Notice, your dhtml collapsable menu won't float with relative position. You shouldset:
var tabsolute=1;
