Q: I downloaded the trial version, so I’m doing some testing....
I can’t highlight the selected dhtml pop up menu item of the current page. The var ttoggleMode is enabled and
tpressedFontColor = "#AA0000
This is caused by the trial version?
A: Please, check the following parameter
var pressedItem=-2;
This parameter sets an index of an item that will be highlighted by default.
-2 - the toggle mode is disabled;-1 - the toggle mode is enabled, bu
t no items highlighted by default;
0,1,2,3,... - index of highlighted item in a top-menu.
The menu has only two states normal and mouseover. We'll try to add the pressed state in the future.
You can 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.
You can also set the correct
var pressedItem=1;
parameter on each html page.
Q: I am trying to make the tabs all the same width and would like to know how to do that. Therefore "Personal", "Account Summary", "Tax Exemptions", "Password", "Invoices", "Quotes", "VOIP" - I need them to all be the EXACT SAME width.
A: See, I've created Individual style
var bstyles = [
["bitemWidth=250px"], // style 0
];
And used this style for some items
["Account Summary","AccountSummary", "tabs/img/icon_ie.gif","tabs/img/icon_ie.gif", "tabs/img/icon_ie.gif", "", "0", "", "",], // style 0
["Tax Exemptions","TaxExemptions", "tabs/img/icon_ie.gif", "tabs/img/icon_ie.gif", "tabs/img/icon_ie.gif", "", "0", "", "", ], // style 0
You can use this style for all items in the same way.
You should set the width of your Tabs
var bmenuWidth="770px";
and width for each Tab
var bstyles = [
["bitemWidth=110px"], // style 0
];
And assign this style for all items.
Q: I am able to open the page but the 'x' which allows me to close the popup dhtml is missing.
A: Try to set this parameter:
closable:1,Q: I would love to buy your product BUT, I am not sure if it will do what I want - can I call javascript within the dynamic menu?
For example my old page for disaster recovery we have inserted a URL substitution :
The javascript function is called at the top of the nav page:
<script LANGUAGE = "JavaScript" SRC = "../urlSub.js"> </script>
then the link on the nav menu
<a> href="#" ONCLICK = "urlSubstitution('transco/sheet.asp?stype=1')">Table of Contents </a>
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
HOWEVER, Im not sure if this is possible with your product?
A: Yes, it is possible.
Actually you can use your own Javascript code instead standard links and html code inside item text. For example:
var menuItems = [
["text", "javascript:your_code_here"]
];
or
var menuitems = [
["<div onClick='urlSubstitution(\'transco/sheet.asp?stype=1\')'>Table of Contents</div>", ""]
];
