Javascript Menu. DHTML Menu.

  • There can be multi level menus - create as many rows or columns of the menu as you want.
  • Use a mouse to drag a menu as a usual window. Also you can construct the menu where each submenu can be "detached" from the main menu (MSOfficeToolbarLike mode).
  • When the page is scrolled the menu remains visible. The DHTML menu can "float" along one or two coordinate axes.

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 use your licensed deluxe menu and I got a customer specific issue:

Is it possible to set no background color for the menus first level and a background color for all submenus?

I couldn't find a parameter to set different variables for main level and sublevels...

Thank you for your feedback

A: You should use Individual Styles for your subitems.

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

  var itemStyles = [
["itemBackColor=#81BEC9,#CCE6EA"], //style0
];
["Home","testlink.html", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],

Q: I need to work it with PHP/MySQL. I have found some information on it in your Support section, but have problems to understand and wonder if you have more information or a working sample of the loading bar with PHP/ MySQL.

A: Info about generating menu (menu items )from a database, please, see:

http://deluxe-menu.com/generate-menu-from-database-xml-php-asp-vb-support.html
Please, see the example of .php file.
The content of .php file depends on your database structure.


<?php

// The example for PHP/MySQL.
// MySQL database has the table "menuTable" that contains data for menu items.
// The table has the following fields:
// 1. "text" - item text
// 2. "link" - item link
// 3. "icon1" - item icon (normal state)
// 4. "icon2" - item icon (mouseover state)
function getMenuItems()
{
$jsItems = '';

// Select all records from table "menuTable"
$allItems = mysql_query('SELECT * FROM menuTable;');

// Extract items data from database and build Javascript code for menuItems
while ($itemData=mysql_fetch_array($allItems))
{
$jsItems .= '["'.$itemData['text'].'", "'.$itemData['link'].'", "'.$itemData['icon1'].'", "'.$itemData['icon2'].'"],';
}

// Return Javascript code
return $jsItems;
}

?>

<script>
  var menuParam1 = value1;
  var menuParam2 = value2;
  var menuParam2 = value2;
...

  var menuItems = [

<?php

// Write Javascript code for menu items
echo getMenuItems();

?>

];

</script>



Q: I'd like to buy a template for creating a basic vertical javascript popout menu that is image based. Can you tell me which of your products I should consider buying? I'm familiar with html, but not other programming languages.

A: If you want to create javascript popout menu you should buy Deluxe Menu,
http://deluxe-menu.com

See the example here:

http://deluxe-menu.com/image-based-menu-sample.html

You can also use your own images for the menu items.
If item text is empty, icon fields will be used as item images.
For example:
["", "index.html", "itemImageNormal.gif", "itemImageOver.gif", "Home Page"]

Please, try the trial version at first. It has full functionality.
