Javascript Menu. DHTML Menu.

  • Tune menu parameters manually or using Deluxe Tuner. Then add several rows of a code within html page - your menu is ready!
  • Use special JavaScript functions for: Dynamic changing of items (text, link, icons and even individual style!). Making a menu item active/inactive. Addition/removing of items. Changing of visibility of items. Getting the information on any menu, submenu and items. Other tricks.
  • Opportunity to control the menu from the keyboard.
  • Cross-frame mode allows you to build full-featured menus on the pages that use frame-based structure. But for all that it's not necessary to insert any additional code into all the pages - just specify some additional parameters of the menu.

Recent Questions

Q: I would like to add the javascript API to a link contained in my website that will have the corresponding item in the deluxe-tree menu act as if it was "clicked".

Presumably I need to add the script (for example) <A HREF="http://deluxe-menu.com/features-info.html" TARGET="_self" "..javascriptHere ..">. Can you give me an example please of what code goes into there.

I presume I use dm_ext_setPressedItem (menuInd, submenuInd, itemInd, recursion) but where do I get the ????Ind data from and make the javascript call in the above link.

A copy of a working example together with where to get the data , perhaps on your own web pages, would help.

A: Deluxe Tree doesn't save a presseditem as it saves a tree state. It works within 1 page only and if youreload the page you should set a pressed item using Javascript API:

function dtreet_ext_setPressedItem (menuInd, itemID)

<script type="text/javascript">

  var i = <?php echo $selitem; ?>;
onload=setPressed;
function setPressed()
{
dtreet_ext_setPressedItem(0,dtreet_ext_getItemIDByIndex(0, i));
}

</script>
You should define selitem using server side script.



Q: When I stay on one page (for example "Home") аlso must have the menu-point "home" another color or font. How can I make this?


A: You should set pressed item.
Please, check the following parameter

  var pressedItem=-2;
This parameter sets an index of an item that will be highlighted by default.
-2 - the toggle mode is disabled;
-1 - the toggle mode is enabled, but no items highlighted by default;
0,1,2,3,... - index of highlighted item in a top-menu.

Deluxe Menu v2.4 has only two states normal and mouseover. Now we'repreparing new version of Deluxe Menu. It saves it state after thereloading of the page. We're planing to release a new version during a month.

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.
You can also set the correct
  var pressedItem=1;
parameter on each html page.


Q: I'm curious to know if this dhtml menu cross frame work with frames. Are there any limitations regarding frames?

I'm thinking of having the tree in a left-hand frame and using it to change two stacking frames to the right. Do you foresee any issues with this plan?

A: Deluxe Menu

There is cross-frame mode in Deluxe Menu, see more info here:

http://deluxe-menu.com/cross-frame-mode-sample.html

Deluxe Tree

You can install your Tree Menu in a left-hand frame and load pages inthe another frames. You can set target using the following dhtml menu cross frame parameter:

  var titemTarget = "framename";

Please, try the trial version.



Q: Could you also tell me where I should place the images I wish to use in the menu, eg arrows. When I select an image to use they are not appearing in the preview, or when I launch deluxe-menu.html?

A: Please, check images paths within data .js file.
For example, if you have data.js file here:

c:/website/data.js

and your images are stored here:

c:/website/images/

you should set image name so (for example):

  var arrowImageMain = ["images/arrow1.gif", "images/arrow2.gif"];

If you use Tuner, you should save data .js file before you'll selectimages. When you save .js file it means that you set a root directoryfor the project, so Tuner can make all selected images with relativepaths.
