Use images for backgrounds of submenus and items, icons, arrows. Using web images you can create menus completely based on graphics.
Design both horizontal and vertical menus and submenus with any amount of menus on a single page.
Place any HTML code inside the menu item - be it a flash-object, form, picture, or text. This ability lets you to build various menus of any complexity.
Submenus can be shown in 4 ways: - From left to right and also from left to right + upwards. - From right to left and also from right to left + upwards (e.g. for right-to-left languages).
I like the transitional fade of onclick tab data between tabs of this menu, but I don't see anything in Transitional Effect variables to manipulate this.
A: You can set transitional effects in the "Transitional Effects"section in Deluxe Tuner.
//--- Transitional Effects var btransition=24; var btransOptions=""; var btransDuration=300;
Notice that Transitional Effects are supported by IE5.5+ only.
Q: You've been helping me with some issues on the Deluxe Tree Menu system my company has purchased and most issues are resolved, so thank you! One big problem remains though and we can't seem to figure it out, so I hope you can help.
What we want is, when a user enters our site from the index (home) page then clicks on a link and the sub-page opens, for the dhtml menu tree to be open to the section the user is in and viewing. We also DO NOT want the browser to save the state of the menu, since that is inconsistent with where the user is in the site. Note: we do not use the Menu on the home page, is this a problem?
Per your tech support email, I've added the expand code, which works going from the home page to sub-pages. However, it interferes with navigating to other sub-pages once your in the site. The menu doesn't keep the section open, it closes back up. You mentioned the expand code has to be entered on every page....is that so in this instance and if so, that's a maintenance nightmare - does a better way exist for this type of menu?
Then we activated the "save state" option and the menu stays open on the sub-pages, but the expand option doesn't work. It's like they cancel each other out and you can only have one or the other.
Can I get these two to work together? What do I need to do? Is it better to use the XP-style menu?
A: When user clicks the link, the browser loads a new page and the script re-create the dhtml menu tree. If you want to open the needed section automatically on load you can use the following:
1. Save the state to cookies 2. Use frames 3. Put the special script on each page of site that will open appropriate section. (dtreet_ext_expandItem)
