Q: How do you specify different number of sub menu columns for each menu heading in the dhtml menu bar?

When I put   var smColumns = 5; it changed it for both my multicolumn headings.

A: You should use Individual Submenu Styles, for example:

  var menuStyles = [
["smColumns=3"],// 0 style
["smColumns=2"],// 1 style
];

  var menuItems = [
["Home","testlink.html", "", "", "", "", "0", "0", "", "", "", ],
["Product Info","", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", "", "", ],
 ["|Features","testlink.html", "", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", "", ], // 0 style

Q: When I select something from one of the mouseover menus it takes me to a link on a website,
is it possible to run a javascript instead?

A: Actually you can use your own Javascript code instead standard links and html code inside item text.
For example:

  var bmenuItems = [
["text", "javascript:your_code_here"]
];

or

  var bmenuitems = [
["<div onClick='urlSubstitution(\'transco/sheet.asp?stype=1\')'>Table of Contents</div>", ""]
];

Q: Do you have a template example of creating menu javascripts using data stored in a database?


A: 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">  var dmWorkPath = "menudir/";</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="menudir/dmenu.js"></script>
<!-- (c) 2006, 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: Is it possible to integrate a search window for my customers like your "standart tree menu" , and what is the code for this function  ?


A: To add input area and a button you should write your menu item in thefollowing way:

["|Search <input type=text style='width:80px;height:17px;font:normal 10px Tahoma,Arial;'>&nbsp;&nbsp;
<input type=button value='Go' style='width:30px;height:17px;font:normal 10px Tahoma,Arial;'>", "", "", "", "", "", "", "0"],
