Q: I'm in search for a product like "Deluxe Menu".
Before buying your software, I'd need to know if I can use images (eg *.jpgs) within rollover drop menu instead of just text; my menu items need to be images. Does "Deluxe Menu" support this?
A: Yes, you can create image-based rollover drop menu.
If item text is empty, icon fields will be used as item images.
For example:
["", "index.html", "itemImageNormal.gif", "itemImageOver.gif", "Home Page"]
Q: Can I use javascript to get the object (getElementByID). If not howdo I hide my dropdown menu on print?
A: You can add a new button to print your page and call onClick event, soyou should write:
<body ....
onClick="document.getElementById('dm0m0').style.visibility='hidden'; window.print();">
...
</body>
Or you can use the same javascript code from your menu item.
For example:
var menuItems = [
["Print", "javascript:document.getElementById('dm0m0').style.visibility='hidden';
window.print();", icon1, icon2],
];
But if you want to hide the menu when your customers push "File/Print"you should write so:
You must create two functions, for example:
function myprint()
{ document.getElementById('dm0m0').style.visibility='hidden';
window.print();
}
function myprint2()
{ document.getElementById('dm0m0').style.visibility='visible';
window.print();
}
You should add this functions into your code.
And then you must write so:
window.onbeforeprint = myprint;
window.onafterprint = myprint2;
Q: Under Parameters ->> Dimensions ->menuWidth
Even I change the value such as 150px it doesn't have any effect on javascript dhtml menu itself.
Changing menuHeight property such as menuHeight = 123px moves menu down from the top of the page instead of changing height of the menu itself.
I used templates ->> vista -> vista style 3-03 to generate the javascript dhtml menu and modified it.
A: See, you have itemWidth and itemHeight in the Individual Style.
var itemStyles = [
["itemWidth=94px","itemHeight=23px","itemBackColor=transparent,transparent","itemBorderWidth=0", "fontStyle=bold 10px Tahoma","fontColor=#FFFFFF,#FFFFFF", "itemBackImage=data-vista-3-03.files/btn_cyan.gif,data-vista-3-03.files/btn_cyan2.gif"],
];
You cannot set the less value for the menuwidth in that case. You canset only the bigger value:
var menuWidth="550px";
To change the menuHeight you should also use itemHeight parameter, forexample
itemHeight=123px
Q: I would like to reduce or remove the indentation between submenus. That way I can save space for the menu. How can I set indentation?
I would like to change the height of the submenu items (no icons used). How can I do that?
A: Unfortunately, you cannot reduce the indent between main items inXP-Style.
To reduce the indentation between submenus you should set thefollowing parameter:
var titemHeight=15;
