Q: In Internet Explorer 7 , the menu with javascript was completely invinsible.
A: Try to set exact width for the menu, for example:
var menuWidth="500px";
Q: The arrows on my cross browser javascript menu only show on the main page of my website (www.domain.com). I read the FAQs and the problem seems common and related to a path error. My path appears correct (to me anyway..lol) but it still doesn't work.
A: Try to use absolute path to your images. Set the following parameter:
var pathPrefix_img="http://www.domain.com/";
Q: We are unable to get sub-menus to appear on page load or rather simulate a "windows application style menu".
How can we in combination with the java menu api function dm_ext_setPressedItem get the associated sub-menu to display? This function simply sets the item to "pressed" rather than actually showing the sub-menu. Attempts at beginning an item's text value with "+" only works with Deluxe Tree.
Again, we are trying to use the menu not only as a navigator but also as a visual aid for the user to determine what page they are viewing. For example, when a user clicks on a menu item and that page loads, the menu should display the top-level item pressed, the sub-menu group, and the item pressed.
Furthermore, it would also be useful if we could then "unlock" the pressed items and navigate the menu under normal circumstances.
If there are no existing "quick" functions to accomplish this, could you please point out the function in dmenu.js or another engine file that initiates the display of sub-menus, we could then force the menu to select a top-level item in the onload event thus showing a top-level item pressed along with it's related sub-menu.
A: Unfortunately Deluxe Menu doesn't have such a feature now. It is notpossible to set parent item highlighted, expanded submenu group andhighlighted submenu item.
You can do it using Deluxe Tree now only.
Q: I am looking to get the Floating to work for the flash drop down menu.
