Q: I am testing it on my website.
I have under the submenu 'Generalites" two links "Presentation" and "Formulaires"
I would like when I click on what ever link on the expandable javascript menu that the visited link stay in a different color and with a different background.
For exemple:
If I click on link Presentation then this link will become in a different color and also its background.
Then If I click on Formulaire the prevous link is reset and the Formulaire link appears in a differemt color and its backgroud. How should I do it ?
A: Deluxe Tree doesn't save a pressed
item as it saves a tree state. It works within 1 page only and if youreload the page you should set a pressed item using Javascript API:
function dtreet_ext_setPressedItem (menuInd, itemID)
Please, see here:
http://deluxe-tree.com/functions-info.html
You can also set
var tsaveState = 1;
More info you can find
http://deluxe-tree.com/data-samples/tree-menuxp-save-state.htm
To expand specific items you should use API function
function dtreet_ext_expandItem (itemID, expand)
Q: I did not see how you get the content of link value of the tab to display below css tab menu.
The closet I got was to click a tab and havea second window open up wit the content of the link.
A: See in Deluxe Tabs there are two modes:
1. var tabMode=0;
You can create only one level of tabs and assign Object Id's of the
DIV's to show when you click on the tab.
["XP Tab 1","content1", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["XP Tab 2","content2", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["XP Tab 3","content3", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["XP Tab 4","content4", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
2. var tabMode=1;
You can assign only links in this mode.
You should create top level items with subitems.
["XP Tab 1","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["|Link 1_1","http://deluxe-tabs.com", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["|Link 1_2","testlink.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["|Link 1_3","testlink.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["|Link 1_4","testlink.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["|Link 1_5","testlink.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["XP Tab 2","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["|Link 2_1","testlink.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["|Link 2_2","testlink.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["|Link 2_3","testlink.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["|Link 2_4","testlink.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["|Link 2_5","testlink.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["XP Tab 3","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["|Link 3_1","testlink.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["|Link 3_2","testlink.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["|Link 3_3","testlink.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["|Link 3_4","testlink.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["|Link 3_5","testlink.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
You can use Object ID as well as Link in both modes. Use the following prefixes within item's link field:
"object:" - means that there is object id after it;
"link:" - means that there is a link after it.
"javascript:" - means that there is a javascript code after it, for example:javascript:alert(\'Hello!\')
So, you should write for example:
["|Link 1_1","object:Content1_1", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
Q: Doesn't this mean that I have to add this search engine code to all of my sites pages? If so this could be tedious when adding additional pages to a large site.Is this something I can adjust ...or make submenus were you can't see through them?
A: Unfortunately it is really so. You should paste search engine code onthe each page with the menu.
If you don't want to create your menu (and add search engine friendlycode) on each page, you can try to use frames, the menu has a cross-frame mode. Also you can use aserver-side script (php, asp, vb, etc.) to generate html pages fromtemplates on your server.
Q: I have a question regarding your java dropdown menu. I am evaluating them in order to assess their functionality.
My menu will often have many items, say 100 or so. I would like them to display horizontally, like a grid so they are all visible on one page. Also, they should run alphabetically down each column, then to the next column like a telephone book, not across.
Is this possible with your java dropdown menu?
A: Yes, it's possible, please see an example:
