Q: I bought the Deluxe Menu system for one website. Javascript select menu works well on all versions of IE that I tried (5,6,7)

However, the background and shadow do not render in Firefox. As a result the menu is not as attractive.
Can you help with this or am I stuck?

A: You should add Individual Item style and assign it for the top javascript select menu items:

  var itemStyles = [
["itemHeight=20px"],
];

["Home","index.shtml", "", "", "First Page", "", "0", "", "", "", "", ],
["Communication","", "", "", "", "", "0", "-1", "", "", "", ],
...

Filters and transitional effects are features of Internet Explorer5.5+ only.

Q: We recently bought your product.

We are developing in ASP.NET (VB) and we have a problem making you deluxe menu dynamic to suit our needs. We are using the Deluxe Menu.

The problem is each time a page with dhtml nav loads, we want to be able to generate the menuItems variable to reflect the options the individual user has, so it can't be hard coded into data.js it MUST be provided by an aspx file and attached somehow. I can't work out how to attach the variable (even a static one) as a separate file, so if you can do it with a static one, we can extend it to a dynamic one later.

For example the JS in the data.js file we want the MenuItem dimension you be loaded in a seperate file, some kind of include.

  var menuItems = [
["Home","index.aspx", "", "", "", "_self", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["About","about.aspx", "", "", "", "_self", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["Contact","contact.aspx", "", "", "", "_self", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["Help","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],

];

Hope this makes sense.

A: You can move
  var menuItems = [
...
];
dm_init();

dhtml nav code from your data file to your page (template) directly:

<script>
  var menuItems = [
...
];
dm_init();

</script>

Q: I was wondering how do i add more then five items on the top of the select menu javascript rathere then using a sub menu?

A: Actually you can add as many top items as you want.

Use Deluxe Tuner to add more items or add them in your data filemanually, for example:

  var menuItems = [
["Item 1","whatsnew.htm", "Buttons/whatsnewup.jpg", "Buttons/whatsnewover.jpg", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["Item 2","test.htm", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["Item 3","index.htm", "Buttons/homeup.jpg", "Buttons/homeover.jpg", "", "_parent", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["Item 4","about.htm", "Buttons/aboutup.jpg", "Buttons/aboutover.jpg", "", "_parent", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["Item 5","commserv.htm", "buttons/commservup.jpg", "buttons/commservover.jpg", "", "_parent", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["Item 6","conference.htm", "buttons/conferenceup.jpg", "buttons/conferenceover.jpg", "", "_parent", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["Item 7","lodges.htm", "buttons/districtsup.jpg", "", "", "_parent", "", "", "", "", "", ],

Q: I am curious why there are no font settings for "Individual Styles" for"Submenu styles".

Basically I want to have a different font and color for my submenu items so they appear differently than the normal primary Items - but it seems there is only two options for fonts:

- The global font parameters affecting all fonts (primary and sub).
- And the Individial Styles for primary Item Styles.

Why no font paramenters for Submenu Items?


A: You can assign Item Style for the submenu item too.

See the example:

  var itemStyles = [
["fontStyle=normal 13px Comic Sans MS"], //item style 0
];
  var menuStyles = [
];

["Product Info","", "default.files/icon1.gif", "default.files/icon1o.gif", , , "0", , , ], //item style 0
   ["||How To Setup","testlink.html", "default.files/icon6.gif", "default.files/icon6o.gif", , , "0", , , ], //item style 0
