Q: I have been mostly creating my menus by starting with a template file that has the features I need, and then modifying that file by hand (as opposed to using the Tuner program). In this case I am using data-vista-01.js.

When I load my html file that has references to the necessary resources (e.g. .js, gif, etc) in a directory that has the Images folder and Menu folder copied directly from the installed Deluxe Menu program directories, I get what I want.

This is perfect. But I think to myself, surely I don't need all the .js files from the Menu directory, nor do I need all the .gif files from the Images directory, so I started deleting those files one at a time, until I got to the point where Images contained only the Vista1 folder + the empty.gif file, and the Menu folder contained only dmenu.js. My menu now not working.

I'm guessing that some graphic files need to draw the top-level menu bar are missing. But which ones?
So my question is, what files do I really need? Is this something the documentation describes, and if so where?

I hope I don't have to include the full contents of the Menu and Images folder, as they are quite large.


A: Unfortunately, you should add all need images manually.
We'll try to correct it soon.
You can open your data.js file and see what images you're using in themenu and copy tese images into your folder.

You should also change the following parameter:

  var pathPrefix_img="";

There is no need to use all engine files for the menu.

Q: I've been playing with this product and it does exactly what I need so far!.

My problem question is this:-

The menu I have created shows a several icons that activate cgi code on the web server. What I want to know is can these drop down menus change the image when an icon is actually pressed?

I trying to find how I can present the user with a button pressed in image when the icon is clicked and maintain that image until another icon in that menu is pressed?

Can this be done? If not is it something you can do for me at a cost?

A: See more info about pressed item here:

Q: I downloaded the trial version of Deluxe Tuner and love the menus it makes. I'm havinga major problem centering the expandable menu in a table. I'm using FrontPage 2002 but added thescript into the page via notepad. No matter what I try, the expandable menu stays on the left ofthe table. Do you have any suggestions? I'm sure you must have a list of problemsassociated with FrontPage. Can you please help me?


A: To center the menu on your html page you should set the followingparameter and install the menu in the following way:

  var absolutePos=0;

<div align=center>
<script type="text/javascript" src="deluxe-menu/dmenu.js"></script>
</div>

<table width=800>
<tr>
<td align=center width=600><script type="text/javascript"
src="data/data.js"></script></td>
</tr>
</table>


Q: The cascading javascript menu does not spans frames or windows like Applets. Is that correct?

I was not able to make the sample to do it.

A: The DHTML Menu and Java Menu are built on different technologies.Java menus can create submenus that cover frames as a standard Windowssubmenus. DHTML Menu can't do that, because it's controls is htmlobjects, they can't overlap Windows controls. So, cascading javascript menu hascross-frame ability that allows it to show submenus in differentframes. But it can support this mode for the same domain only -- ifyou loaded a page to a subframe from another domain, the submenuscan't be shown in it. It happens because all browsers don't allow todo that for security reasons. Just imagine if you'll able to create aframeset from 2 frames, 1st frame will be with a zero height-width,and you'll load your page into it. Then user will go to another domainand your "invisible" frame will change a content of other pages!
