Javascript Menu. DHTML Menu.

  • Create contextual menus for your pages. For this purpose you should assign a special function for the object you want. The current coordinates of the mouse pointer or your own ones can be used for the contextual menu.
  • When the submenu is larger than the visible area of the page the submenu will be automatically decreased. To see all the submenu items you do not need to use scrollbars or something like that - just put your mouse to the bottom of a submenu and it will be automatically scrolled! You can also specify height and width for each separate submenu.
  • Build menus completely based on Cascading Style Sheets. It is possible to appoint the individual CSS styles for separate elements of the menu.

Q: Using the example menu you have, how do i make the sub-menu for the 'Sample' menu item a multi-column and leave the 'Product Info' menu item as is.
I only want certain sub-menus to have multi-columns. I don't want all menu items to have a multi-column sub.


A: Please, see the attached example.
You should use individual styles.

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

...
   ["More Samples","testlink.htm"],
      ["|Group 1","", , , , , "3", "1", , ], //assign style 1

Try that.


Q: We purchased the Deluxe Menu a few months ago and are extremely happy with the product. We have been getting great compliments about our new navigation system.

The menu has over 500 links and functions like a dream! One issue I am having, that I just cannot seem to figure out how to fix, is the following:

Our nav menu is displayed approx. 70 pixels from the top of the browser window. On the drop down links that have a number of items (example 1 in the image below), they display underneath the menu, however on the links that have only a few items, they display above the menu bar in java script as in example 2 in the image below.

How can I set it so that no matter how many drop-down items there are, they always display under the menu bar in java script, not on top?

A: Try to set the following parameter:

  var subMenuVAlign="top";



Q: Now I need to work out how to add multiple menu's to a page? Are you able to reference these separately - is this possible.

The page that I am creating lists out notes from our system - there is a "options" button to the right of each note - when the cursor hovers over this button I want to dynamically load themenu's. On any page there could be over a 100 of these "option" buttons and the menu that would load from each option button could be different and specific to the note.


A: You can add as many menus as you want on the one page.

You should call
<SCRIPT type=text/javascript>  var dmWorkPath = "data.files/";</SCRIPT>

<SCRIPT src="data.files/dmenu.js" type=text/javascript></SCRIPT>

and then call your data files:

<SCRIPT src="data.files/data1.js" type=text/javascript></SCRIPT>

<SCRIPT src="data.files/data2.js" type=text/javascript></SCRIPT>

<SCRIPT src="data.files/data3.js" type=text/javascript></SCRIPT>

<SCRIPT src="data.files/data4.js" type=text/javascript></SCRIPT>

You may also generate a menus from a database or XML using any server-side script, e.g., PHP, ASP, VB, etc.


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

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.
