Recent Questions

Q: I have a problem. How can we get the value of a parameter passed by the menu, when a menu item is clicked? For example I want to get the URL or file name to be open by the menu item when it is clicked.
I am talking about TREE menu.


A: If you want to open url or a file when you click on items of the tree menu you can write, for example:

  var tmenuItems = [
["+DHTML Menus","http://dhtml-menu.com", "images/xpicon1.gif", , , "DHTML Menus", , "0", , , , ],
 ["|Save as...", "javascript:OpenFile('file_name')"]

];


Q: Sorry to bother you again, but we've done everything suggested in your fix regarding flash obscuring the multiple drop down menu, but we're still having the same problem in Firefox.

We've - set the parameter in the data file to -   var dmObjectsCheck=1;

We've added the following to the start of the data file -

function dm_ext_ruleObjectHide()
{
return false;
}

We've embeded the flash as suggested to -

<object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000"
codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,0,0"
height="150" width="732" name="if-header">
<param name="movie" value="images/flash/if-header.swf">
<param name="quality" value="best">
<param name="play" value="true">
<param name="wmode" value="opaque">
<embed height="150" name="if-header"
pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"
src="images/flash/if-header.swf"
type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="732" quality="best"
wmode="opaque" play="true">
</object>

But still our multiple drop down menu sits behind the flash. Are we missing something else?

A: See it is necessary to have opaque parameters in <object> and <embed>tags to display submenus correctly in Firefox.

So, you should open .js file for your flash and find "embed" and"object" words.
And add opaque parameters, for example:

swfNode = '<embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="opaque" src="'+ this.getAttribute('swf') +'" width="'+ this.getAttribute('width') +'" height="'+ this.getAttribute('height') +'"';
swfNode += ' id="'+ this.getAttribute('id') +'" name="'+ this.getAttribute('id') +'" ';
  var params = this.getParams();
for(  var key in params){ swfNode += [key] +'="'+ params[key] +'" '; }
  var pairs = this.getVariablePairs().join("&");
if (pairs.length > 0){ swfNode += 'flashvars="'+ pairs +'"'; }
swfNode += '/>';
} else { // PC IE
if (this.getAttribute("doExpressInstall")) {
this.addVariable("MMplayerType", "ActiveX");
this.setAttribute('swf', this.xiSWFPath);
}
swfNode = '<object id="'+ this.getAttribute('id') +'" classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" width="'+ this.getAttribute('width') +'" height="'+ this.getAttribute('height') + '">';
swfNode += '<param name="movie" value="'+ this.getAttribute('swf') +'" /> <param name="wmode" value="opaque"> ';
  var params = this.getParams();
for(  var key in params) {
swfNode += '<param name="'+ key +'" value="'+ params[key] +'" />';
}



Q: Can all the java script be contained with in the html and not use an external .js file?

A: Of course, you can place all Javascript data from .js file within yourhtml page code!

Q: http://deluxe-tabs.com/file/templates/deluxe-tabs-style-5.html

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.
