Q: Can you provide an example of how to dynamically change the menu items at runtime for the dropdown menus?
(asp is fine, but if it needs to javascript that is also ok)

A: 1) You can use API functions to affect items dynamically:
http://deluxe-menu.com/functions-info.html

2)Generate your menu items dynamically from database.
Unfortunately we don't have working example with ASP.

You may generate a menu from a database or XML using any server-side script, e.g., PHP, ASP, VB, etc.
However, these scripts don't work inside of Javascript .js files, so,
you should move parameters of a menu from a .js file into an html-page, e.g.:

<!-- Deluxe Menu -->
<noscript><a href="http://deluxe-menu.com">Javascript Menu by Deluxe-Menu.com</a></noscript>
<script type="text/javascript" src="menudir/dmenu.js"></script>
<!-- (c) 2008, http://deluxe-menu.com -->

<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript1.2">
// and describe parameters of a menu
  var parameter1=value1;
  var parameter2=value2;
etc.

  var menuItems = [
// here you generate items using server-side scripts (php, asp, vb, etc.)
];
</script>

The example of the menu working with PHP/MYSQL you can find here:

Q: Greetings..... I am new to java script and would like to have a drop down menu that I can use with frames....
I downloaded your program and have created a small menu to try to become familiar with the program and see if I can accomplish getting a menu to display on a new page...... I am currently using Page Mill.

When I created the menus, I saved them as TstBuy and it was saved in the Deluxe-menu folder.

Having read a number of your information displays plus lacking the knowledge of what files and where to place them, I would appreciate any information you can offer as to what files to place in the main Page Mill folder if that is where they go??

As for the data I created (TstBuy), I thought that I would be able to copy and paste that file into the Page Mill page within a text box, but the paste feature was not available...

Thanks for any assistance you can offer..


A: Thanks for your interest in our products.
Deluxe Menu wasn't developed as Page Mill/Dreamweaver/Frontpage extension,BUT you can use it as standard Javascript files.

You can try to export your menu into html page using Deluxe Tunerapplication and then copy the code from the generated html page into your html page.You should click in Deluxe Tuner "File/Export/To HTML". You'll getsuch files:

deluxe-menu.files/
     image_files.gif
     dmenu.js
     dmenu4.js
     dmenu_add.js
     dmenu_dyn.js
     dmenu_key.js
     dmenu_cf.js
     dmenu_popup.js
     dmenu_ajax.js
data-deluxe-menu.js
deluxe-menu.html

There is no need to use all files from the "deluxe-menu.files/"folder.
The description of files you can find here:

http://deluxe-menu.com/description-of-files-info.html

You can delete all files which are not necessary for you.

To install the menu into your html page:

1. open the page in Page Mill/Dreamweaver/Frontpage
2. open html source code of the page (deluxe-menu.html)
3. add several rows of code (<script> tags), For info see:
http://deluxe-menu.com/installation-info.html

You should also copy "deluxe-menu.files/" folder, all image files anddata-deluxe-menu.js in the same folder with your html page.

For example, you'll have such structure:

deluxe-menu.files/
     image_files.gif
     dmenu.js
     dmenu_add.js
data-deluxe-menu.js
your_html_page_from_Page_Mill.html

That's all.


Q: Is there a property in the data.js file - or any other file - where the pulldown menu can be hidden initially until needed?

A: You can hide the menu onload
document.getElementById('dm0m0').style.visibility = "hidden";

And then show the menu when your user will be validated.


Q: Is there a way to hide a menu options using either CSS or the java api based on the site user for the mouseover menu?

A: Deluxe Menu supports Javascript API.
You can find more info here:
http://deluxe-menu.com/dynamic-functions-sample.html

You can try to use API functions in that case:
function dm_ext_changeItemVisibility (menuInd, submenuInd, itemInd, visibility)
To disable items you should set the target parameter to "_".
You can try to use the following function

function disable() {
dm_ext_changeItem(0, 1, 1, ["", "", "", "", "", "_"]);
}
to disable your items.
