Q: How do I add padding around a top item in the javascript menu buttons?
A: You should specify itemPadding parameter in "px".
You shouldadd "px" in your style for subitems:
var menuStyles = [
["menuBackColor=#F2F3F2","menuBorderWidth=0","itemSpacing=1","itemPadding=4px","smOrientation=undefined"],
];
Notice also that you can set multiple value for itemPadding parameter,for example:
itemPadding=4px 10px 4px 10px// top right bottom left
Q: I have already tried this exact same method, using and alternate "itemBackColor" and this is not what I needed. As you can see in your example putting in an item back color only give you a different bg color on the item itself, but the BG of the menu around it remains the same. In your example the lighter bg color of my menu is surrounding the item bg color making this look more like a mistake and poor design.
It do use the item bg color for the rollover in my menu, as you can see, but implementing this does not give me what I need. I need the BG color behind this item to be completely flush with the sides of the menu.
I had already checked the menu system thoroughly before contacting you and I was well aware of the option.. but as you can see this is not the solution. It is very important to me that this looks perfect, and what I need is not built into this menu by default.. I need another solution.
A: You should set the following parameter:
var itemSpacing=0;
You can also try to paste separators between items.
Q: I am very much inspired over this Deluxe menu. But why there is not Deluxemenu with sound?
ADDs Item and ADD Subitem with sound! ADD Item and ADD Subitem with soundwould be nevertheless only perfect. Did you remember already times?
Why not?It pleases me with sound better.
A: Unfortunately, it is really so, you cannot use sound in Deluxe Menu.
You can try our Java Menus, http://apycom.com. You can use sound there.
Q: I have configured the Deluxe Tabs menu for the purpose that this menu will form the basis of a website's navigation, once clicked a tab it will take you to the appropriate page.
However one problem I have faced is that menu, regardless of current webpage will display the same active/ selected menu item, having looked in the menu parameters I know that the following set the positions of the selected tab :
* var bselectedItem=0;
* var bselectedSmItem=0;
Is there anyway of selecting the dhtml tab menu index location according to what webpage you are on? On your website it shows an example of a PHP server-side script, however is there an example of this in ASP ?
A: No, unfortunately we don't have such examples in ASP.
Deluxe Tabs doesn't support API functions which can return theselected tab also.
You can set "bselectedItem" and " var bselectedSmItem" parametersbased on your link before you call your data file.
For example, move " var bselectedItem" and " var bselectedSmItem" parametersfrom your data file to your code.
<TD vAlign=top align=left>
/* Select Tab */
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript1.2">
var bselectedItem=<?php echo $seltabs; ?>;
var bselectedSmItem=<?php echo $selsmtabs; ?>;
</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, forexample:
<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>
