Q: If you take a look at the upper menu, I have "|" separating all of the various menu items. How can I do this with Deluxe Menu?
I don't want to resort to using messages and would like to use the "|" character if at all possible.
A: You can paste a separator.
Please, see the following parameters:
//------- Separators -------
//--- Separators
var separatorImage="";
var separatorWidth="5";
var separatorHeight="100%";
var separatorAlignment="right";
var separatorVImage="images/public/separator.gif";
var separatorVWidth="3";
var separatorVHeight="100%";
var separatorPadding="";
You should set a separator in the menuItems, for example:
var menuItems = [
["Home","index.cfm", , , , , , , , ],
["-"],
["About Us","about.cfm", , , , , , , , ],
];
Q: In DeluxeTuner when I choose an image and use my own path DeluxeTuner always sticks it's own path (data.files/) into the .js file.
Then I have to go into the data.js file and re-edit the path manually.
A: 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.
Q: I have an other question about Vista menus :
If the word is too long, the dhtml menu images are not correct.
Please look at the screenshot.
A: See images in Vista Templates have the fixed width and height (92 x 21).
You can try to use the following parameter to use combinedbackground for your items, for example:
var beforeItemImage = [,]; //left-side image for normal and mouse over state
var itemBackImage = [,]; //background or image for normal and mouse over state
var afterItemImage = [,]; //right-side image for normal and mouse over state
var beforeItemImageW = '';
var afterItemImageW = '';
var beforeItemImageH = '';
var afterItemImageH ='';
But you should create a small images in any Graph Editor, for example:
button_n_back.gif
button_n_left.gif
button_n_right.gif
button_o_back.gif
button_o_left.gif
button_o_right.gif
Q: I made my own multi-users Content Management System and I'm using deluxe menu developer license to create my menu into this application.
One dhtml menu vertical constantly need to be reload to see new page created/modified or deleted by other logged users. So I just take out your code for Ajax sample to fill dynamically this submenu.
There is my .js file fort my menu : mnu_admin.zip (You'll need to extract the .js file)
In this file I'm using the same way it goe's into your example with Ajax on line : [172] ["Contenu pages","", "", "", "Gйrer les pages du site", "", "0", "0", "modules/menu/data-ajax3.js", ],
There is my : data-ajax3.js (periodically change)
var menuItems = [
["|Services", "contenu_pages_a.php?id=HMglcKWvAQklxw4uM3qHWa9pFhY432dZNIXOIlYNJO4%3D", "", "", "Services", "", "", "", ""],

];
Another user just delete differents pages so the data_ajax3.js change to this (example) :
var menuItems = [
["|Services","contenu_pages_a.php?id=HMglcKWvAQklxw4uM3qHWa9pFhY432dZNIXOIlYNJO4%3D", "","", "Services", "", "", "", ""],
["|Documentation", "contenu_pages_a.php?id=iG31PyfJ%2BswDBJPcn61IXgczwXkePaDclD6DPsxAUKE%3D", "", "", "Documentation", "", "", "", ""],
["|Soutien financier", "contenu_pages_a.php?id=tIACTxYwfsey%2FBGr0ROjAXGggU3LdglWtxMTyTVINtU%3D", "", "", "Soutien financier", "", "", "", ""],
["|Programmes", "contenu_pages_a.php?id=A7v%2BWOmpw4syUqHRcPizZjUwh9TzxyuYm5f1yi7EiGM%3D", "", "", "Programmes", "", "", "", ""],
