Recent Questions

Q: I am trying to create a tab menu and I have some questions. I want a tab menu that has four tabs. Each tab is a different image, the normal and hover state uses the same image and the selected state uses a different image. This will be applied to all four tabs. All the tabs will not have any text on them because the image will already have text on it. This tab menu will not have a submenu but will use <div id> tags to populate information when a certain javascript menu master tab is selected.

I am having difficulty trying to create this type of tab menu to work with the Deluxe Tuner. Each time I try to make an image as a tab that image is applied to all javascript menu master tabs which I do not want. I want each tab to have a different image.

Please advice how I can do this.

A: If you want to use different images you should use Individual ItemStyles and assign them for your tabs.

  var bstyles = [
["bitemBackImage=deluxe-tabs.files/style04_n_back.gif,deluxe-tabs.files/style04_s_back.gif, deluxe-tabs.files/style04_s_back.gif","bbeforeItemImage=deluxe-tabs.files/style04_n_left.gif, deluxe-tabs.files/style04_s_left.gif,deluxe-tabs.files/style04_s_left.gif", "bafterItemImage=deluxe-tabs.files/style04_n_right.gif, deluxe-tabs.files/style04_s_right.gif,deluxe-tabs.files/style04_s_right.gif"],

["bitemBackImage=deluxe-tabs.files/style04_3_n_back.gif,deluxe-tabs.files/style04_3_s_back.gif, deluxe-tabs.files/style04_3_s_back.gif","bbeforeItemImage=deluxe-tabs.files/style04_3_n_left.gif, deluxe-tabs.files/style04_3_s_left.gif,deluxe-tabs.files/style04_3_s_left.gif", "bafterItemImage=deluxe-tabs.files/style04_3_n_right.gif, deluxe-tabs.files/style04_3_s_right.gif,deluxe-tabs.files/style04_3_s_right.gif"],
];

  var bmenuItems = [

["Item 1","", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ], //style1
["Item 2","", "", "", "", "", "1", "", "", ], //style2
["Item 3","", "", "", "", "", "2", "", "", ], //style3
];



Q: What I would like to see is the ability to have a base site navigation menu with all the definitional entries (size, locations, icons, etc.) defined but all the menuitems be called from an Ajax file.

A: You cannot use ajax submenus for the top items.
But you can use several .js file, for example:

params.js //file with all menu parameters (size, locations, icons, etc.)
all code before
  var menuItems = [
...
];
dm_init();

data_ajax1.js //data files for ajax submenus
data_ajax2.js
data_ajax3.js
...

main_data.js - data file with the following code:

  var menuItems = [
["Item 1","", "", "", "", "", "0", "0", "data_ajax1.js", "", "", ],
["Item 2","", "", "", "", "", "0", "0", "data_ajax2.js", "", "", ],
["Item 3","", "", "", "", "", "0", "0", "data_ajax3.js", "", "", ],
["Item 4","", "", "", "", "", "0", "0", "data_ajax4.js", "", "", ],
];
dm_init();

You can also place this code into your html page directly (in the place where you want tohave a menu):

<script type="text/javascript">
  var menuItems = [
["Item 1","", "", "", "", "", "0", "0", "data_ajax1.js", "", "", ],
["Item 2","", "", "", "", "", "0", "0", "data_ajax2.js", "", "", ],
["Item 3","", "", "", "", "", "0", "0", "data_ajax3.js", "", "", ],
["Item 4","", "", "", "", "", "0", "0", "data_ajax4.js", "", "", ],
];
dm_init();


Q: My Deluxe Menu works super.

Anyway, I would like to make it more comfortable for my users.

So, I would like to know if it possible to create a "Multicolumn Menu"

(http://deluxe-menu.com/multicolumn-menu-sample.html)

and separate define which submenu should be multicolumn and wich one looks "normal".

In your example all menu options which have submenus become multicolumn-look.

Is it maybe also possible to create such Multicolumn-look?

Group_01       Group_02       Group_03
    - xxx             - xxx             - xxx
    - xxx             - xxx             - xxx
    - xxx             - xxx             - xxx
Group_04       Group_05       Group_06
    - xxx             - xxx             - xxx
    - xxx             - xxx             - xxx
    - xxx             - xxx             - xxx


A: Yes, you can create such menu.
You can create "normal" items using separator.
     ["|-","testlink.htm"],

Please, see the attached example.


Q: We use IFrames and Frameset through out our program. Will Deluxe-Menu and Deluxe-Tabs work for us.
Will this work for us, using the layout below. Menu will be in frame3 and tabs in frame4. Should pop up in frame5.

       <frame>    <frame1>     <frame2>
  <frame3-Deluxe-Menu>    <frame4-Deluxe-Tabs>
<frame5 - Content and more IFrames and Framesets>


A: Deluxe Menu doesn't work with <IFrame> objects. It works with<frameset> objects only. All it can to do with <IFrame> is to loadpages into it.
You should use standard installation for the menu (cross-frame mode).

See more info here:
http://deluxe-menu.com/cross-frame-mode-sample.html
http://deluxe-menu.com/data-samples/cross-frame-horizontal-1-sample.htm

Deluxe Menu and Deluxe Tabs will work fine in such frame structure.
