Q: My site has three levels of a folder structure. Can I create a menu that will allow me to link in and out of folders? Or must I design three menu's with different link locations.
A: You can use one menu.
Use additional parameters to make menu paths absolute:
var pathPrefix_img = "http://domain.com/images/";
var pathPrefix_link = "http://domain.com/pages/";
These parameters allow to make images and links paths absolute.
For example:
var pathPrefix_img = "http://domain.com/images/";
var pathPrefix_link = "http://domain.com/pages/";
var menuItems = [
["text", "index.html", "icon1.gif", "icon2.gif"],
];
So, link path will be look so:
http://domain.com/pages/index.html
Images paths will be look so:
http://domain.com/images/icon1.gif
http://domain.com/images/icon2.gif
Please, try to use these parameters.
Q: The browser I am using is Internet Explorer 7.0 at Windows Vista (with "Security" set at "Medium"). I get the message "To help protect your security, Internet Explorer has restricted this webpage from running scripts or ActiveX controls that could access your computer" and then I have to click this message/bar in order to "Allow blocked content". After I do that the javascript menu script appears as it should, but of course I don't want visitors to go through that. FYI, I do not have the same problem with the dynamic menus on your website or in other websites, which appear normally right from the start.
A: You should adjust your browser settings.
Tools/Internet Options/Advanced Options/
and set
"Allow active content from files to run on My Computer".
There is no way to enable these preferences automatically, in othercase there are no reasons to create security preferences.
Q: I appreciate your assistance with this problem. I am 98% of the way happy with this product. When I made the changes you suggested, the copyright error went away, however the site no longer validates. It does not like the <noscript> tags. Is there a fix for this?
A: Matt, you can move your <noscript> tag into the <body> tag.
Try that.
Q: I use your product for one of my clients and so I am familiar with using Deluxe Tuner on the Mac and editing that menu, etc. It is a simple menu though, that doesn't use any images or anything fancy.
I want to purchase the javascript nav menu for another client.
My question is, he loves that tabbed javascript nav menu I originally did, and right now they are in one big image map. I can cut them up, but with your menu software, will I be able I to have the top menu as those tab images, and the sub-menu show on mouseover as just plain text? (Like SigmaFlow's sub-menus.)
Any advice is appreciated. Thank you!
A: Yes, of course, I don't see any problem with it.
You can use any images as item background, see for example:
