Q: We have a query on a navigation that we have created. We would like to knowhowto set the colour for a nav item of the asp drop down menu if any pages in that section are currently being visited?
A: To save your navigation path you should set the following parameter:
var saveNavigationPath = 1;
The menu keeps items highlighted during menu navigation.
0 - disabled, 1 - enabled (default).
You can highlight menu items by default in two ways:
1) Set the pressed item on each page idividually using the following parameter:
var pressedItem = -2;
The toggle mode. 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-level menu.
- delete var pressedItem=1; parameter from your data file
- set correct parameter on each page before you call data file, for example:
<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>
<script type="text/javascript"> var pressedItem=2;</script>
...
<script type="text/javascript" src="menudir/data.js"></script>
2) Set the pressed item/subitem using dm_ext_setPressedItem () function.

http://deluxe-menu.com/highlighted-items-sample.htmlQ: Under Opera everything works fine but under IE the submenu’s are way down the page and go off the bottom of the screen.
A: See, the problem is that the script can't get css properties of the object if they are described in separate .css block (or file).
In other words, you can't get the value of "position" attribute of the object if the object doesn't have this property within inline style(style="PADDING-BOTTOM: 10px;"). To get the value you should move .css style into style="" attribute.
Please, try to add your
css file -> inline css, for example:
You should add style="PADDING-BOTTOM: 10px;"
to the
<DIV class=department-menu>
So, you'll have:
<DIV class=department-menu style="POSITION: absolute;PADDING-BOTTOM: 10px;">
Q: It works great in IE, but doesn't work in Firefox.
A: Please, try to specify units in "px".
For example:
var itemPadding = "3px";
Try that.
Q: My submenu is not display at the good position with Firefox.
Look at my web site with Firefox. Select item menu 'Inscription' and you'll see the problem.
Note: mainmenu.js is relative positioning. The table tag is absolute positioning.
A: Try to write so:
<TABLE id=Table60style="Z-INDEX: 803; LEFT: 295px; POSITION: absolute; TOP: 114px">
<TBODY>
<TR>
<TD style="POSITION: absolute;"><NOSCRIPT><A href="http://deluxe-menu.com/">Javascript Menu by Deluxe-Menu.com</A></NOSCRIPT> <NOSCRIPT>MainMenu</NOSCRIPT>
<SCRIPT language=JavaScript1.2 src="deluxe_files/MainMenu.js" type=text/javascript></SCRIPT>
</TD>
</TR>
</TBODY>
</TABLE>
