Q: This is probably a really basic question, but I was wondering if
your dhtml menu maker makes it possible to determine the direction of the
drop down menu. In other words, my menu is at the bottom of the page
and I want the drop down list to actually go "up," not down.
Is that possible with your software?
A: Yes it is possible.
You should use the following parameter
var subMenuVAlign="top"; //downward
var subMenuVAlign="bottom"; //upward
var subMenuAlign="left"; //from left to right
var subMenuAlign="right"; //from right to left
Q: Am I under the correct assumption that if the inner menu item text expands past the ItemWidth or MenuWidth (being that the Width is set -- eg 150px), that the javascript menu div width will expand past it's boundaries instead of wrapping the text? (eg. A text like "Please Make this Wrap instead of expand the width boundary" seems to expand the container's width rather than wrap)
A: There are 2 ways to do that:
1. set
var noWrap=0;
2. use <br> tags, for example:
var menuItems = [
["line 1<br>line 2"],
];
Q: With the new version, my body onload function is blocked.
In our application we do something with a body onload function.
It doesn't get called if I use the deluxe-menu. If I remove deluxe-menu js files from html, it works.
Is there a way I can use deluxe-menu and get my onload handler called?
A: Deluxe Menu detects any user's onload events and remember them in the case when you write a such events before dm_init(); call.
Try to delete onload event from <body> and write the following at theend of a page (after dm_init() call):
<script type="text/javascript"> onload = onloadHandler;</script>
That should work.
Q: We are actually very happy with the product compared to the other options available. The code is cleaner and it is easy to use. We would actually like to continue to use your product but our client uses firefox most of the time and if the javascript onmouseover menu won't go over the java applet it isn't going to work. You mention that you will try to fixthe issue. If you can give me a date to when it would be fixed by, I can try to convince our client to wait.
Please let me know as soon as possible.
A: Actually Deluxe Menu v3.2.5 overlap applets in Firefox.
See the attached example.
You should set
var useIFRAME=1;
parameter.
