Q: We've used your deluxe menu on a few sites without any issues. We are trying a new site javascript menu system now and having an issue with beforeItemImage and afterItemImage. Below is our data javascript class. The dropdown seems fine in Firefox but the before and after Images are not showing up in Internet Explorer.
We've tried a number of things and can't quite get the tabbed corners in IE. Any suggestions would be greatly appreicated, we need to get this menu live soon for a client of ours. Thank you in advance.
A: Try to specify width and height parameters:
var beforeItemImageW="6";
var afterItemImageW="6";
var beforeItemImageH="19";
var afterItemImageH="19";
We've checked your page in IE6, IE7, IE8. All images displayed correctly.Q: Could you please just help me - I have been using quirks mode to create our customer sites and would now like to start using a proper doctype like:
But when I change it, all the down menus dhtml break on the sites.
A: Try to specify all units in "px":
var itemPadding="3px";
var itemStyles = [
["fontStyle=normal 11px Lucida SansUnicode","fontColor=#FFFFFF,#FFFFFF","itemBackColor=#DE2829,#C62829","itemBorderWidth=0",
"itemBorderColor=#FFFFFF,#C21212","itemBorderStyle=solid,solid",
"itemBackImage=blank.gif,blank.gif","itemWidth=160px"], ["itemWidth=129px"],
];
var menuStyles = [
["itemSpacing=0", "itemPadding=8px"]
];
Q: I just purchased the Deluxe PopUp Window application in order to implement some pop up window on my web site the way I need them to work.
Infact, after taking a look at your application it doesn't seem (maybe I'm wrong) it can be used the way I need to.
To cut a long story short: I need the PopUP window onclick to show images and not texts pening up them by clicking on a text-link.
Images are many so, if I not wrong I must create lots of windows each one for each single image.
So, my questions are:
1) Can I use you pop up to show images only?
2) Can I activate them by clicking on the related links.
Generally, in order to do so, I have a single js script that activate the window onclick. To load a Popup window I need to click on a link by opening an HTML page containing the image.
To let it all work I need a <script> function in the <head> </head> tags and an onclick command calling the PopUp script activated when I click on the related link.
So, does your script work the same way. Can you confirm me that I can use your application just the same way as I have always done with a simple .js script + an .htm page containing an image?
I hope I was clear.
A: You can call only one data file and use deluxePopupWindow.open() function to open your windows:
<a href="javascript:;" onclick="deluxePopupWindow.open('window1', '<img src=\'img/DSCN3699.jpg\'>',
'Window1','width=100,height=100,resizable,scrollbars=no,middle,right,fade-effect',
'simple')">Click Here to see a chase1 sample</a>

http://deluxepopupwindow.com/samples.htmlQ: I purchased the right to use deluxe-menu because I liked how it worked versus my old menu which is your competitor (milonic menu) in the javascript driven menu market.
However, after using your menu for a few months, I have discovered a problem. When I bought the menu, the claim was made it worked with all doctypes. I use "strict" on my web site and want my pages to validate as strict with W3C or WDG validators.
I get a notice of incorrect copyright when I remove the link to yoursite in the heading of the document. Since this line does not validate,I feel that you should provide an adequate alternative to having a unsubstantiated line in your html code. I have looked over the FAQ on your site and have found no remedy. You have a wonderful product and I wish to continue to use your menu. But this one little bugaboo surely can be fixed on your end by altering the requirement to keep the incorrect copyright from appearing even though it shouldn't appear in my opinion.
For instance, I can alter the line and make the link invisible.
Example: <noscript><a href="http://deluxe-menu.com"></a></noscript>
By making the link invisible with no text, it will mean nobody would see the blatant ad for your site. The incorrect copyright notice does not appear under those circumstances, however it still does not validate.
I just want to create web pages that validate! Please help me as a struggling web author to achieve my goal and still use your menu which I paid for! Thanks for any help you can give me.
I love my deluxe-menu! Please help to keep using it.
A: Thanks for your interest in our products.
