Recent Questions

Q: I had to put the site live and had taken out the white border. I've used one of the better elements of your application and put a second data file (data1.js) and a sample page up that recreates the aberrant behavior in IE and the missing border-bottom in Firefox and Opera.

In IE, the entire border of each element has about a 5px white border until you mouseover each element. Then the border-bottom (1px solid white) shows correctly.

In both Firefox and Opera the border doesn't show at all.


A: Try to write so:

  var absolutePos=1;
  var posX="10";
  var posY="400";

  var itemStyles = [
["itemBorderWidth=0 0 1px 0","itemBorderStyle=solid,solid","itemBorderColor=#FFFFFF,#FFFFFF"],
];


Q: Our default directory for the files is menudir
How do we get the software to recognize this default directory when generating the script and support files. The default needs to be added for the icon files etc.


A: You can 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: I can’t seem to figure out how to keep last clicked item in my java menu script marked.

I use these options:

pressedItem = -1

  var saveNavigationPath = 1;

Where and how do I determine the background color of the clicked item?

I also have this problem on Deluxe Tree.


A: The menu has only two states normal and mouseover.

Try to do the following things:

- delete   var pressedItem=1; parameter from your data file
- set correct parameter on each page before you call data file, forexample:

<noscript><a href="http://deluxe-menu.com">Javascript Menu by Deluxe-Menu.com</a></noscript>
<script type="text/javascript">  var dmWorkPath = "menudir/";</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="menudir/dmenu.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">  var pressedItem=3;</script>
...
<script type="text/javascript" src="menudir/data.js"></script>

You can also set a pressed item using Javascript API:
function dm_ext_setPressedItem (menuInd, submenuInd, itemInd, recursion)

Sets a current pressed item.
menuInd - index of a menu on a page, >= 0.
submenuInd - index of a submenu, >= 0.
itemInd - index of an item, >=0.
recursion = true/false - highlight parent items.

But notice, to use dm_ext_setPressedItem() you should know ID of selected item and subitem.
You can't get this ID after you reload your page. That is why you should write your own code on PHP.


Q: Thank you. I got the menu working on my web page.

Now, I have to pass dynamic value from the link when the user click the floating javascript menu.

I was using a table type of menu and passing value like this

<td onclick="document.iframename.location.href='abc.jsp?value1=<%value1%>&value2=<%value2%>Click here</td>
What should I do to the deluxe-menu to get the same action?
I need to pass value to next page. The value is dynamic, so I have to use <%value1%> notation for JSP file.

A: Actually you can use your own Javascript code instead standard links. For example:

  var menuItems = [
["text", "javascript:your_code_here"]
];

or

  var menuitems = [
["<div onClick='your_code_here'>item text</div>", ""]
];
