Q: The "drop down" menus go above the mouseover javascript menu, not below. I want them to go down. That's why it's a DROP DOWN menu and not a DROP UP menu.
And I tried the " var subMenuVAlign="bottom";" command as per your user database forum and it doesn't work.
So the problem is elsewhere....
BTW, I did not have this problem on the trial version, it appeared after I installed your js files in the scripts directory and the key in the data.js file
A: You should set the following parameter for mouseover javascript menu:
var subMenuVAlign="top";
Q: But given the sample on
http://deluxe-menu.com/highlighted-items-sample.html#ind
we want to delete menuentry 'Sample1' and do
dm_ext_deleteItem(2, 4, 0)
This raises an error but according to your javascript menu master manual the first argument should be the menuindex ....which is 2 in our opinion.
A: See, if you have several menus on your page they will have differentID's, for example:
<script type="text/javascript" src="menu/data1.js"></script> //ID=0
<script type="text/javascript" src="menu/data2.js"></script> //ID=1
<script type="text/javascript" src="menu/data3.js"></script> //ID=2
<script type="text/javascript" src="menu/data4.js"></script> //ID=3
So, if you have only one menu on your test page you should use ID=0
Q: Is there any way through script to call the function that would be called if the user clicked a dhtml tabbed menu?
A: You're able to use Javascript for each item, for example:
var bmenuitems = [
["item text", "javascript:your_code_here"]
];
Unfortunately, you can't assign onmouseover/onClick event to each item.
However, you can achieve this by using standard html objects within items, for example:
var bmenuitems = [
["<div onClick='your_code_here'>item text</div>", "index.html"]
];
Q: Do you have an extremely simple example of modifying a menu with the JavaScript API? I've played with the example on the site, but I have trouble removing the other menus without breaking it.
I just want to use the API to change the icon on the menu items.
A: You should use the following function:
function dm_ext_changeItem (menuInd, submenuInd, itemInd, iParams)
<script language="javascript" >
dm_ext_changeItem(0, 0, 1, ["", "", "new_icon.gif", "new_icon_o.gif", "",,""]);
</script>
