Q: Is there a way to programmatically specify which tab is selected in the html tabs navigation?
A: You can set "bselectedItem" and " var bselectedSmItem" parameters based on your link before you call your data file.
For example, move " var bselectedItem" and " var bselectedSmItem" parameters from your data file to your code.
<TD vAlign=top align=left>
/* Select Tab */
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript1.2">
var bselectedItem= var bselectedSmItem= </script>
<SCRIPT src="data.js" type=text/javascript></SCRIPT>
</TD>
You should define seltabs and selsmtabs using server side script.
You can also set it on every page before you call data.js file, for example:
<TD vAlign=top align=left>
/* Select Tab */
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript1.2">
var bselectedItem=4;
var bselectedSmItem=3;
</script>
<SCRIPT src="data.js" type=text/javascript></SCRIPT>
</TD>
Q: Is there any luck with getting your popup menusto work with the dynamic drive script..?
A: Unfortunately we don't work with dynamic drive script.
But I suppose that you can use it with Deluxe Menu without any problems.
But in that case you should move menuItems and dm_init(); function from your data file tothe html page directly.
For example delete the following code from your data file
var menuItems = [
["Aston Martin Page","javascript:ajaxpage('ajaxfiles/external3.htm', 'rightcolumn');\"", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
];
dm_init();
and paste it in SCRIPT tags on your html page in the place where you want to have a menu:
...
<div>
<script type="text/javascript">
var menuItems = [
["Aston Martin Page","javascript:ajaxpage('ajaxfiles/external3.htm', 'rightcolumn');\"", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
];
dm_init();
</script>
</div>
Q: Can I put the icon on the left hand side of the text or does it have to be the right in the tree menu script?
A: You can put the icon as you wish on the left or right side.
You may set a alignment of icons and arrows.
To set them use these parameters:
var ticonAlign="right";
var texpandBtnAlign="right";
To set alignment of the top items in XP-style use:
var tXPAlign="right";
Q: I need to know if it is possible to call a JavaScript function from the cool dhtml menu.
I have read the FAQ and noted where it lists that you can perform an alert call, and that worked on my end as well, but when Iattempted to call a function I created I could not get it torespond.
Is it possible to call a function from your menu?
Could Iget an example?
A: You can write your own functions within menuItems, for example:
["|Real-Time Data Query","javascript:window.open('http://www.domain.org/','_blank','height=758,width=1024,status=yes,toolbar=no,menubar=no,location=no');"
,,,'Query real time water quality data' ,'' , '', '', ,],
