Q: Can I request something for your next version please.....individual javascript list menu border colours, I think it would then be possible to create a dropped shadow effect perhaps :)
A: You can use different colors for each border side now.
For example:
var menuBorderColor="#C0AF62 #4949E0 #000000 #B31E1E";top right bottom left
Q: What I would like to achieve is a separator in the main menu list of a vertical menu.
I can get the separator to show in submenus but not the main menu.
A: You should write so:
var separatorImage="menu.files/sep_blue.gif";
var separatorWidth="90%";
var separatorHeight="3";
var separatorAlignment="center";
var separatorVImage="menu.files/sep_blue.gif";
var separatorVWidth="90%";
var separatorVHeight="3";
var separatorPadding="0px";
Q: I'm currently experimenting with your script which I far more performant than any of the other I have tried so far, so we will probably go with yours and get a distributer license.
I do have a problem though...
I have two menus on my site.
Unfortunately, as they are being used, if you go over the first item in the left menu, it will show its submenu at the top; if you go over the first item of the top menu, it will also show the contents of the second menu...
How can we change this?
A: Installation of your menu is not correct.
See more info about installation here:
http://deluxe-menu.com/installation-info.html
There is no
<script type="text/javascript"> var dmWorkPath = "menudir/";</script>
parameter on your page.
Notice also that you should call dmenu.js file only once and then callyour data files.
Now you have two calls of dmenu.js file.
Q: Could it be possible to explain to me how to create cross-frame horizontal navigation bar..
A: To initialize the cross frame menu call dm_initFrame()
function instead of standard dm_init() function within data.js file:
dm_initFrame(framesetID, mainFrameInd, subFrameInd, orientation);
framesetID - id attribute of the frameset;
mainFrameInd - index of the main frame (where the top-menu is placed), >=0;
subFrameInd - index of the subframe (where the submenus will be shown), >=0;
orientation - frame orientaion: 0 - top-to-bottom, 1 - left-to-right; 2 - bottom-to-top; 3 - right-to-left.
So you should create your menu in Deluxe Tuner, save it.
Create html file with your frame set.
Set ID for the first frameset:
<FRAMESET id=frmSet rows=220,*>
<FRAME id=frame1 src="Deluxe Menu Samples_files/cross-frame-horizontal-1.htm"> //menu frame
<FRAME id=frame2 name=frame2 src="Deluxe Menu Samples_files/testlink.htm"> //content frame
</FRAMESET>
Then you should open your data file in any text editor and changedm_init();
for example to dm_initFrame("frmSet", 0, 1, 0);
