Recent Questions

Q: I would like to know how I indicate on a javascript menu, an item that was selected.
So in other words, if I have a horizontal navigation and I select the 3rd index along the menu
and select something from this, how can I make the 3rd index highlighted?

A: You can find more info here:
http://www.deluxe-menu.com/highlighted-items-sample.html

Deluxe 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: Is it possible to add checkboxes to menu items and retrieve the checked items? I need to create a multiple item select menu. So the javascript menu slide would need to remain open and allow a user to select multiple items and would either submit onmouseout or maybe a "submit these selections" javascript menu slide item.

A: You can try to use Deluxe Tree in that case:
http://deluxe-tree.com

You can paste any html code inside item text, see example here:
http://deluxe-tree.com/data-samples/tree-menu1.js

["+Support", "", "icon5_t.gif", "icon5_to.gif", "", "Support Tip"],
["|Index  <select style='width:120px;height:17px;font:normal 10px Tahoma,Arial;'> <option>Section 1<option>Section 2<option>Section 3 </select>", "", "", "", "", "","", "0"],
["|Search <input type=text style='width:80px;height:17px;font:normal 10px Tahoma,Arial;'>   <input type=button value='Go'style='width:30px;height:17px;font:normal 10px Tahoma,Arial;'>", "", "", "", "", "", "", "0"],
["|Write Us", "mailto:[email protected]", ""],
["|<INPUT TYPE=checkbox CHECKED ID=chk1 onclick='choosebox1()'>Uncheck this check box for some free advice","","","",],

["<img src='img/sep.gif' width=113 height=1>"],

You should also add your own code, so your checkbox will workcorrectly.

Q: Can your dhtml drop down menus work in conjunction with a scroll wheel?

A: You cannot scroll submenus using scroll wheel when you set

var smSmartScroll=1;

To scroll your submenu you should move your mouse.

But you can use scroll wheel when you set

var smSmartScroll=0;

Q: How do I make the buttons in my java navigation menu transparent?
I only want to see the letters appear in my table and not the button until I mouse over it?

A: To set transparent background for the menu you should set:

var menuBackColor="transparent";
var itemBackColor=["transparent","transparent"];
