Recent Questions

Q: I replaced the code you suggested and I downloaded the current version of Deluxe-Tuner. I also removed the Javascript roll-overs I had elsewhere on the page and created the text.

I still get 'Error on page' when I hover over the first java scrolling menu item.

Please help! I need to buid this site out by Monday.

A: Now you have several errors in your data file:

  var menuBackColor="f9f9ec";

You should write:
  var menuBackColor="#f9f9ec";

The following parameters cannot be empty:
  var menuBorderWidth="0";
  var itemBorderWidth="0";

It is not correct to write the java scrolling menu parameter in the following way:
  var itemBorderStyle=["1px","1px"];

You should write:
  var itemBorderStyle=["none","none"];

If you want to add borders in the subitems you should write:
  var itemBorderWidth="1";
  var itemBorderColor=["#c59d1f","#c59d1f"];
  var itemBorderStyle=["solid","solid"];

And to remove border from the top items you should create Individualstyle and assign it to the top items:
  var itemStyles = [
["itemBorderWidth=0","itemBorderStyle=none,none"],
];

["","", "/images/nav_OFF_01.gif", "/images/nav_ON_01.gif", "", "","0", "", "", "", "", ], //assign style 0
["","", "/images/nav_OFF_02.gif", "/images/nav_ON_02.gif", "", "", "0", "", "", "", "", ], //assign style 0
...



Q: I need to be able to highlight the selected menu item of the sliding drop down menu.

A: Deluxe Menu has only two states normal and mouseover.

Try to do the following things:

- delete   var pressedItem=1; parameter from your data file
- set correct parameter on each page before you call data file, forexample:

<noscript><a href="http://deluxe-menu.com">Javascript Menu by Deluxe-Menu.com</a></noscript>
<script type="text/javascript">  var dmWorkPath = "menudir/";</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="menudir/dmenu.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">  var pressedItem=3;</script>
...
<script type="text/javascript" src="menudir/data.js"></script>

You can also set a pressed item using Javascript API:

function dm_ext_setPressedItem (menuInd, submenuInd, itemInd, recursion)

Sets a current pressed item.
menuInd - index of a menu on a page, >= 0.
submenuInd - index of a submenu, >= 0.
itemInd - index of an item, >=0.
recursion = true/false - highlight parent items.

But notice, to use dm_ext_setPressedItem() you should know ID of selected item and subitem.
You can't get this ID after you reload your page. That is why you should write your own code on PHP.



Q: I'm trying to position my menus inside absolutely positioned <DIV> tags. If the <DIV> tag has style="position:absolute; top:100px; left:50px;" in the actual tag, deluxe-menu seems to work correctly. If I have the "position:absolute; top:100px; left:50px;" in a <STYLE> tag or a linked stylesheet and applied using id or class selectors, then deluxe-menu does not work correctly: sub menus have a 100pixel offset in the y direction and a 50 pixel offset in the x direction. This is with no change to the .js data file (I have absolutePos=0;) Is this a known issue, and is it planned to be fixed?


A: See, the problem is that the script can't get css properties of the object if they are described in separate .css block (or file).
In other words, you can't get the value of "position" attribute of the object if the object doesn't have this property within inline style(style="position:absolute"). To get the value you should move .css style into style="" attribute.

Please, try to add your

css file -> inline css, for example:

For example, you should add style="position:absolute;"

to the

<DIV id=head>

So, you'll have:

<DIV id=head style="position:absolute;">
Now we have only such solution for this problem.
We'll try to fix this problem in the future versions.


Q: We're working on new website and including your html menu systems.
Here's what we're trying to do and it keeps giving us an error (using MS Frontpage for development):

1) We have created a single leftnav menu that will appear on all of the pages of our website.

2) We've created an html page called leftnav.htm that is only this menu. It works just fine when we preview within Frontpage. The leftnav.htm and all the menu .js files are in a unique folder within the site.

3) We then have a template page that is the base template for many of the pages on our website. There is a layout table in this template into which we do an Includepage to bring in the leftnav.htm. When we try to preview this page with the menu included, we get a script error that says "Object expected" on line #155 (the .js file only has 154 lines of code).

We're stuck. Is there a problem with how we're trying to implement the html menu systems?


A: It is possible that you'll have an error in the Frontpage's preview.
Try to open your page in browser. If you'll have the same error,please send send us a copy of your html pages (including .js files) and we will check it.
