Recent Questions

Q: The problem is now that I have a scroll bar in the main menus although there is nothing to scroll.

Do you have any ideas?


A: You've set the exact width and height for submenus.

  var smWidth = "100";
  var smHeight = "250px";
  var menuStyles = [
["smWidth=220px","smHeight=250px"],
["smWidth=200px","smHeight=250px"],
["smWidth=120px","smHeight=250px"],
];

Try to write:

  var smWidth = "";
  var smHeight = "";
  var menuStyles = [
[""],
[""],
[""],
];
There will be no scroll bar in the main menus.


Q: I have a question:

The smHidePause = 1500

If hide is busy (during 1500), and I click somewhere else on the screen (empty place), I want the submenu to hide.

Can I make this happen?


A: Yes, you can do it.
You should use the following function to hide your submenus:

_dmsm(0);
where 0 - is index of the menu on a page >0.


Q: I’m very interested in your script of deluxe-menu.
I tryed your script out and have some questions now:

How do I highlight main menu items when I selected a main category?
How do I highlight submenu items when I selected a sub category?
How can I have a submenu unfoldet when I selected the matching main category?

I would be pleased to have answers to my questions as soon as possible.
Thank you for support!


A: The menu has only two states normal and mouseover. We'll try to add the pressed state in the future.

You can 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 have a couple of questions related to the deluxe-menu software. Here they are:

I have been working with on a site and I am kind stack using the program. I want to use the tree option but not all java script drop menu items need to have subcategories. For example:

Category 1

      Sub-menu 1-1

      Sub-menu 1-2

      Sub-menu 1-3

Category 2

      Sub-menu 2-1

      Sub-menu 2-2

      Sub-menu 2-3

Category 3

Category 4 When someone click on the "Category 1" or "Category 2", I want them to see the sub-menus. However, when some click on "Category 3" or "Category 4", I would like to have it open the appropriate page. How do I do this? This will make a lot easier because not all java script drop menu items need to have sub-menus… I hope that makes sense and you can help me on getting this done.



Thanks in advance and looking forward to your answers,

A: You cannot use links for the top java script drop menu items in XP Style only.

  var tXPStyle=1;

but you can write:

["<a href='http://deluxe-menu.com'>Item 45</a>","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
