Q: I’d like to know how to populate the navigation bar menu from a database?
A: Please, see the example of .php file.The content of .php file depends on your database structure.
<?php
// The example for PHP/MySQL.
// MySQL database has the table "menuTable" that contains data for menu items.
// The table has the following fields:
// 1. "text" - item text
// 2. "link" - item link
// 3. "icon1" - item icon (normal state)
// 4. "icon2" - item icon (mouseover state)
function getMenuItems()
{
$jsItems = '';
// Select all records from table "menuTable"
$allItems = mysql_query('SELECT * FROM menuTable;');
// Extract items data from database and build Javascript code for menuItems
while ($itemData=mysql_fetch_array($allItems))
{
$jsItems .= '["'.$itemData['text'].'", "'.$itemData['link'].'", "'.$itemData['icon1'].'", "'.$itemData['icon2'].'"],';
}
// Return Javascript code
return $jsItems;
}
?>
<script>
var menuParam1 = value1;
var menuParam2 = value2;
var menuParam2 = value2;
...
var menuItems = [
// Write Javascript code for menu items
echo getMenuItems();
?>
];

Q: Two more questions, while waiting for this answer:
1) calendarDatePicker.handlers( ['dtEvent', 'dtEvent', {type : 'datetime', format:'%L %d, %Y, %l:%M %p', locale:'en'}] ); is ignoring the date format.
2) If I have a button that in an onclick I want to popup calendar, how would I do that?
3) I am getting 'incorrect copyright', suggestions?
Thank you, I have people waiting for me to bring this site live - your fast help is appreciated
A: >I am getting 'incorrect copyright', suggestions?
You should write NOSCRIPT tag in the following way:
<noscript><a href="http://calendardatepicker.com">Javascript Calendar Date Picker by calendardatepicker.com</a></noscript>
> 1) calendarDatePicker.handlers( ['dtEvent', 'dtEvent', {type : 'datetime',

You should install the calendar in the following way:
<form>
<script>
window.onload = function(){
calendarDatePicker.handlers(['cal', 'txt', {type : 'datetime', IiI:'%L %d, %Y, %l:%M %p', locale:'en'}]);
};
</script>
<input type="button" value="Click to open calendar" id="cal" name="cal" onClick="">
<input type="text" id="txt" value="">
<div id="test-box" style="width:40px;height:40px;position:absolute;left:200px;top:10px;"></div>
</form>
Q: I am using the dhtml-tabs code. I have 2 tabs that I use for a basic form and an advanced form. The advanced form is on the second tab. When I submit, I get results. When I click the back button, the selected drop menu bar tab is the first one, and not the second. Is there a way to configure the tabs to be persistent or sticky. Such that clicking on the back button will result on being on the second tab, which was the last tab before going to a new page?
A: You can try to use the following function:
dtabs_itemClick(0,1)
To open your second tab.
