Q: In the rollover menus, how can I have a heading link to and open another website's home page?
A: 1) You can show the popup window when you hover, click or mouseout on some elements on yourpage. For example you have:
<p><img border="0" src="images/submenu-bg.gif" width="170" height="29" id="open_popup"></p>
So, in Deluxe Tuner you should enter 'open_popup' object ID in the onMouseOver,onClick or onMouseOut fields.
Actually you can assign id to any object on your page:
add id="open_popup" for <a>, <div>, <img> ... tags.
2) Or you can create only one data file and use deluxePopupWindow.open() function to open the popups.
More info about deluxePopupWindow.open() function you can find:
http://deluxepopupwindow.com/window-installation-info.html
function deluxePopupWindow.open("winID", "content", "header", "param", "skin", "contentType")
Use another winID (first parameter) than you have in your data file if you don't want to close 1-st popup window or use thesame winID=win if you want to close 1-st popup.
content - will be the path to the file you want to load in your popup (files/test.html)
skin - is the name of your skin (default in my example)
contentType - set this parameter to iframe.
I call the skin .js file with id='win'.
On the page you should open popup windows with the same id:
<a title="Click to open sample" href="javascript:;" onclick="deluxePopupWindow.open('win', 'files/test.html', 'Window','width=220,height=270,resizable,scrollbars=no,middle,right,fade-effect', 'windowsvista_graphite', 'iframe')">Click to open 1 PopupWindow with 'files/test.html' content.</a>
<a title="Click to open sample" href="javascript:;" onclick="deluxePopupWindow.open('win', 'files/1test.html', 'Window','width=220,height=270,resizable,scrollbars=no,middle,right,fade-effect', 'windowsvista_graphite', 'iframe')">Click to open 2 PopupWindow with 'files/1test.html' content.</a>
<a title="Click to open sample" href="javascript:;" onclick="deluxePopupWindow.open('win', 'files/2test.html', 'Window','width=220,height=270,resizable,scrollbars=no,middle,right,fade-effect', 'windowsvista_graphite', 'iframe')">Click to open 3 PopupWindow with 'files/2test.html' content.</a>
<a title="Click to open sample" href="javascript:;" onclick="deluxePopupWindow.open('win', 'files/3test.html', 'Window','width=220,height=270,resizable,scrollbars=no,middle,right,fade-effect', 'windowsvista_graphite', 'iframe')">Click to open 4 PopupWindow with 'files/3test.html' content.</a>
<a title="Click to open sample" href="javascript:;" onclick="deluxePopupWindow.open('win', 'files/4test.html', 'Window','width=220,height=270,resizable,scrollbars=no,middle,right,fade-effect', 'windowsvista_graphite', 'iframe')">Click to open 5 PopupWindow with 'files/4test.html' content.</a>
<a title="Click to open sample" href="javascript:;" onclick="deluxePopupWindow.open('win', 'files/5test.html', 'Window','width=220,height=270,resizable,scrollbars=no,middle,right,fade-effect', 'windowsvista_graphite', 'iframe')">Click to open 6 PopupWindow with 'files/5test.html' content.</a>
<a title="Click to open sample" href="javascript:;" onclick="deluxePopupWindow.open('win', 'files/6test.html', 'Window','width=220,height=270,resizable,scrollbars=no,middle,right,fade-effect', 'windowsvista_graphite', 'iframe')">Click to open 7 PopupWindow with 'files/6test.html' content.</a>
So, the previous window will be closed and the new one will be opened.If you want to open several windows at once use different id's for each link.
Q: I am in the process of setting up a new html menu bar, but seem to be having trouble getting it to work via Internet Explorer 8.0.
Instead of making drop-downs, it only makes little symbols. However, it works fine via Firefox.
A: Try to use v3.3. It is compatible with IE8.
Q: I have not put your software into our site yet. I am only working on it in frontpage.
However when I have tried to look at it with the browser it does come up with the active x message.
Our site has no active x components otherwise.
A: Please, try to check browser settings. You can try to see Deluxe Menuon the another computer.
On my computer I don't see such message.
Q: Is there a way to increase the margin between the text on the main tree menu and the edge of the dhtml menu control. The text appears to be right up against the left margin.
A: You can add symbol before item's text, for example:
[" Deluxe Tree: XP Style","", "", "", "", "XP Title Tip", "", "0", "0", "", ],
or you can write:
["+<div style='padding-left: 15px;'>Deluxe Tree: XP Style</div>","", "", "", "", "XP Title Tip", "", "0", "0", "", ],
Actually you can use any html code within dhtml menu control items.
