2.0 Buttons by Web-Buttons.com v3.0.0

Javascript Menu. DHTML Menu.

  • Tune menu parameters manually or using Deluxe Tuner. Then add several rows of a code within html page - your menu is ready!
  • Use special JavaScript functions for: Dynamic changing of items (text, link, icons and even individual style!). Making a menu item active/inactive. Addition/removing of items. Changing of visibility of items. Getting the information on any menu, submenu and items. Other tricks.
  • Opportunity to control the menu from the keyboard.
  • Cross-frame mode allows you to build full-featured menus on the pages that use frame-based structure. But for all that it's not necessary to insert any additional code into all the pages - just specify some additional parameters of the menu.

Q: The menu has a problem with newlines. The menu builds correctly (layout ok) but when pressed on the button nothing happens

At some point, in the DHTML menu, we have the following in the javascript:

  var menuitems = [

 ["|Print HTML","javascript:alert('HTML print: Only the 7 most recent orders on the screen \n will be printed because of space limitations on paper.');printResult('4'); ","","", ,"_parent",,] ]

As you can see we have a newline (\n) between the words "screen" and "will". But when we click on the button nothing happens. If we remove the newline and we click on the button then we first get the alert box. After pressing the OK button the function printResult is called.

Is there any way for us to still use the newline character in the menuItems variable?

This can be easily reproducible. That's why I haven't made an example.


A: Try to write in the following way \\n:

 ["|Print HTML","javascript:alert('HTML print: Only the 7 most recent orders on the screen \\n will be printed because of space limitations on paper.');printResult('4'); ","","", ,"_parent",,]


Q: Is there any way to change the font size of the secondary and tertiary links but yet have a different font size for the primary links?


A: You can use different font style for each link on each level.
You should use Individual Item Styles.
Please, use Dhtml Tuner application to create individual styles.

For example:

// --- DHTML Tuner style names ---
  var tstylesNames=["Individual Style 1","Individual Style 2","Individual Style 3","Individual Style 4","New Individual Style",];
  var tXPStylesNames=["Individual Style 1",];

  var tstyles = [
["tfontStyle=bold 8pt Tahoma","titemBackColor=#265BCC,#265BCC","tfontColor=#FFFFFF,#428EFF","tfontDecoration=none,none"],
//style 0 ["tfontStyle=bold 8pt Tahoma","titemBackColor=#265BCC,#265BCC","tfontColor=#215DC6,#428EFF","tfontDecoration=none,none"],
//style 1 ["tfontDecoration=none,none"],
//style 2
["tfontStyle=normal 8pt Tahoma","tfontColor=#013D6D,#5555FF"],
//style 3
["tfontStyle=bold 11px Bookman Old Style","tfontColor=#000000,#000000","tfontDecoration=none,underline"],
//style 4
];

  var tmenuItems = [

["+DHTML Menus","", "images/xpicon1.gif", , , "DHTML Menus", , "0", , , , ],
//style 0
 ["|DHTML Menu","http://dhtml-menu.com", "images/icon1.gif", "images/icon1o.gif", "images/icon1o.gif", "Information", "_self", , , , , ],
 ["|+DHTML Tree Menu","", "images/icon1.gif", "images/icon1o.gif", "images/icon1o.gif", "Support", "_self", "2", , , , ],
//style 2
   ["||2 styles: standard & XP","", , , , , , "3", , , , ],
//style 3
   ["|||Item 23","", , , , , , "4", , , , ],
//style 4
   ["|||Item 24","", , , , , , , , , , ],
   ["||Individual Item & Submenu Styles","", , , , , , "3", , , , ],
//style 3
   ["||Floatable & Movable Menu","", , , , , , "3", , , , ],
//style 3
....


Q: Can you please write me, can I have the active menu button in the javascript menu generator different color display.

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: I cannot see subitems of my down menu navigation on the website. Could you help me?


A: Now you have

  var smHeight="0px";

It is not correct.
Try to set:
  var smHeight="";
