Q: More importantly, my last tab is showing up as active when the page with java floating menu loads...
A: See the following parameter:
var bselectedItem=0;
You should set index of the item you want to select.
Q: How can I set the padding for the menu text at the top for the javascript select menu? I want more padding on the left of the text but I don't want it centered.
A: You can set bigger left padding for your Submenu Style, for example:
var menuStyles = [
["menuBackColor=transparent","menuBorderWidth=0","itemSpacing=1","itemPadding=0px 5px 0px 25px"],
];
itemPadding=0px 5px 0px 25px - top right bottom left
Q: I'm trying out your menus, and I seem to have a problem with changing the title of a menu item. If the text is something like "Create a New Event" the entire menu spreads out and the rollover image starts replicating itself behind it, instead fo stretching with the text. So I see 1 /2 rollover images for that top level item, instead of just the one, width it's width spread out to accomodate the extra text.
I've tried the Styles bit, but that doesn't seem to fix the rollover image any...
Any pointers ?
A: You can try to set the exact width for each menu item using IndividualItem Styles.
You should use Individual Item Styles.
For example:
var itemStyles = [
["itemWidth=120","itemBorderWidth=1","itemBorderStyle=solid,solid"], //style0
["itemWidth=100","itemBorderWidth=1","itemBorderStyle=solid,solid"], //style1
["itemWidth=130","itemBorderWidth=1","itemBorderStyle=solid,solid"], //style2
["itemWidth=150","itemBorderWidth=1","itemBorderStyle=solid,solid"], //style3
];
["Home","testlink.htm"],
["Samples","testlink.htm"],
["|Group 1","", , , , , "0", , , ],
["|Group 2","", , , , , "1", , , ],
["|Group 3","", , , , , "2", , , ],
...
[" More Samples","testlink.htm"],
["|Group 1","", , , , , "3", , , ],
["|Group 2","", , , , , "1", , , ],
Where "0", "1", "2", "3" - style number in itemStyles.
You also should check the width of your rollover image. It should bethe same width as your items.
You can also use
tags in the item text, for example:
var menuItems = [
["line 1
line 2"],
];
Or you can set this parameter:
var noWrap=0;
Try that.
Q: I have a popup that in one of the submenus has an input field. There is a problem – if the user clicks into the entry field, but moves the mouse outside the java swing menu, the menu can close while the user is still typing. Is there any way to prevent that from happening?
A: You can make submenus to stay visible till you click outside the menu or scroll your page.To enable this feature you should set the following parameter:
var smHidePause=-1;
You can set this parameter to each submenu individually usingIndividual Submenu Styles.
