Q: I have followed the instructions on
http://deluxe-menu.com/objects-overlapping-sample.html but when my page is viewed over https the html menus still appear behind Flash objects.
Is there anything else that can do to fix this?
A: Try to set the following parameter:
var useIFRAME=1;
Q: I have the cursor set as pointer – on some of the top menu items there is no link behind it yet the cursor still turns to a pointer.
Is there any way to have it so it only becomes a pointer if there is a link?
A: Unfortunately, you can set different cursor type for the menu items.
Q: I will build menu for several books’ Contents, each book is more than 100 lines and has links. I think if all the books’ contents in 1 *.JS file then it is TOO LOONG!!.
Can I break it down to 1 book for 1*.JS ? How?
A: You cannot divide your menuItems parameter.
You can only use one .js file for your menu parameters and the other.js file for your menuItems = [...];
But you can do it in two ways.
1) You can try to use several menus on the one page, for example:
param.js // file with menu parameters (all parameters before menuItems = [...];)
menu1.js // menuItems for "AC-DC", "ANLOG"
menu2.js // menuItems for "DIGITAL", "WinXP"
menu3.js // menuItems for "MS-Word", "MS-Excel"
In these menu files you should write
menuItems = [
...
];
dm_init();
Then you should install your menu in the following way
<script type="text/javascript" src="param.js"></script>
<table>
...
<script type="text/javascript" src="menu1.js"></script>
...
<script type="text/javascript" src="menu2.js"></script>
...
<script type="text/javascript" src="menu3.js"></script>
But it will be easier to use vertical menu in such case
var isHorizontal=0;
var smColumns=1;
2) You can also try to add some code, see the attached example.
In the first file (@MY books (Multiple Col.js) I write menuItems for the first item "AC-DC".
Notice that you should delete comma at the end of the last item
var menuItems = [
["AC-DC","", , , , , , , , ],
["|@Book1","testlink.htm", , , , , , , , ],
...
["|@Book3","", , , , , , , , ],
["||CH02","", , , , , , , , ],
["||CH01","", , , , , , , , ] // delete comma at the end of the last item
];
In the second file (@MY books (1.js) you should write
menuItems = menuItems.concat(
[
["ANLOG","", , , , , , , , ],
["|@Book1","", , , , , , , , ],
["|@Book2","", , , , , , , , ],
["|@Book3","", , , , , , , , ] // delete comma at the end of the last item
]
);
In the third file (@MY books (2.js) you should write
menuItems = menuItems.concat(
[
["DIGITAL","", , , , , , , , ],
["|Item 1332","", , , , , , , , ],
["WinXP","", , , , , , , , ],
["|Item 1333","", , , , , , , , ],
["MS-Word","", , , , , , , , ],
["|Item 1334","", , , , , , , , ],
["MS-Excel","", , , , , , , , ],
["|Item 1335","", , , , , , , , ] // delete comma at the end of the last item
]
);
dm_init();
Notice that you should write dm_init(); function in the last file.
In the .html file you should write
...
<tr>
<script type="text/javascript" src="@MY books (Multiple Col.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="@MY books (1.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="@MY books (2.js"></script>
</tr>
I hope you understand me.
Q: I would like two level of tabs i.e.
Tab 1 entertainment
Opens up another level of tabs
Tab 1_2 movies with information displayed in the tab not on new page
Tab 1_3 music with information displayed in the tab not on new page
Tab 1_4 tv and so on...
A: Unfortunately, you cannot do it using Deluxe Tabs in TabMode. Youcannot use object ID to show in TabMode, only links.
You can use 2 menus:
Tab 1 entertainment //1st menu
--------DIV----------------------
Tab 1_2 Tab 1_3 Tab 1_4 //2nd menu
----------DIV's for second menu--------------
content
----------end DIV's for second menu ---------
----------end DIV for the first menu -------
