Q: I am working in a Hispanic area, and need to be able to utilize specialcharacters
in titles in for navigation menus.
However, those are appearing distorted on my website.
A: Actually you can use any letters in the menu.
Please, check that you've set "Tools/Use utf8 encode".
When you save your data file in UTF8 you should use the same encoding on our html page.
So you should write:
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">
If you don't want to use UTF-8 encode on your page you should turn off
"Tools/Use utf8 encode" property, save your data file and manually
change your letters in any text editor.
Q: A couple days ago I purchased the multi-website license of Deluxe Menu/Tree/Tabs/Popup Window/Calendar for US$149.00
I am having a very hard time getting the popup window to do just a basic function.
All I want is to have a link that I click on the page and the dhtml menu windows pop up.
As it is, the page automatically opens the popup window on loading.
I'm not a Javascript programmer which is why I purchased your product as it seemed I could pick a couple basic values in the GUI and it would create the script and code for me.
It would be REALLY handy if you had a couple of examples of how to create the following:
- Open the popup window upon the page loading
- Open the popup window when the user clicks a link
- Open the popup window when the user mouses over a link
- Close the popup window when the user mouses out
The help section doesn't even provide a menu item for the popup window.
Finding support for it on your site is difficult and what I can find is better suited for someone with Javascript knowledge.
Is there any way you can provide me the code to do this?
Thanks very much for your time and assistance.
A: We have such example on our website:
> - Open the popup dhtml menu windows upon the page loading
To open the popup window upon the page loading you should set thefollowing parameter:
openAfter=0
deluxePopupWindow.attachToEvent(win,'openAfter=0,,,,,')
You can find this parameter in Deluxe Tuner. See on-load.zip example.
> - Open the popup window when the user clicks a link
Create the popup window in Deluxe Tuner and save it as html. UseonClick event for a link.
See how you should write your link:
<a class="sampleLink" title="Click to open sample" href="javascript:;" onclick="deluxePopupWindow.open('win', '<DIV style=\'PADDING-RIGHT: 10px; PADDING-LEFT: 10px; PADDING-BOTTOM: 10px; COLOR: #d33a3a; PADDING-TOP: 10px; TEXT-ALIGN: center\'><B>Sample content</B></DIV><DIV style=\'font: 13px;text-align: center; color:#666666; \'><EM>This is a simple HTML code for content. Here you may also set link to content page or ID of some element.</EM>', 'Safari Style', 'width=250,height=100,resizable,scrollbars,minimizable,fullscreen,middle,right,fade-effect,opacity=1,floatable=yes', 'windows_safari')"><b>this link</b></a> opens a medium-sized dhtml floating window.
where (see on-click.js file)
'win' - is winID
'<DIV style=\'PADDING-RIGHT: 10px; PADDING-LEFT: 10px; PADDING-BOTTOM:
10px; COLOR: #d33a3a; PADDING-TOP: 10px; TEXT-ALIGN:center\'>
<B>Sample content</B></DIV><DIV style=\'font:
13px;text-align: center; color:#666666; \'><EM>This is a
simple HTML code for content. Here you may also set link to
content page or ID of some element.</EM>' - content of your
popup window
'Safari Style' - window title
'width=250,height=100,resizable,scrollbars,minimizable,fullscreen,middle,right,fade-effect,opacity=1,floatable=yes' - parameters of the popup window'windows_safari' - window skin
You can find more info about deluxePopupWindow.open function here:

Notice that you shouldn't set openAfter parameter in on-click.jsfile:
deluxePopupWindow.attachToEvent(win,',,,,,')
> - Open the popup window when the user mouses over a link
> - Close the popup window when the user mouses out
You should create such popup in the same way as in the previous point,but use onMouseOver/onMouseOut events.
<a class="sampleLink" title="Click to open sample" href="javascript:;" onMouseOver="deluxePopupWindow.open('win', '<DIV style=\'PADDING-RIGHT: 10px; PADDING-LEFT: 10px; PADDING-BOTTOM: 10px; COLOR: #d33a3a; PADDING-TOP: 10px; TEXT-ALIGN: center\'><B>Sample content</B></DIV><DIV style=\'font: 13px;text-align: center; color:#666666; \'><EM>This is a simple HTML code for content. Here you may also set link to content page or ID of some element.</EM>', 'Safari Style', 'width=250,height=100,resizable,scrollbars,minimizable,fullscreen,middle,right,fade-effect,opacity=1,floatable=yes', 'windows_safari')"><b>this link</b></a> opens a medium-sized dhtml floating window.
<a class="sampleLink" title="Click to open sample" href="javascript:;" onMouseOut="deluxePopupWindow.open('win', '<DIV style=\'PADDING-RIGHT: 10px; PADDING-LEFT: 10px; PADDING-BOTTOM: 10px; COLOR: #d33a3a; PADDING-TOP: 10px; TEXT-ALIGN: center\'><B>Sample content</B></DIV><DIV style=\'font: 13px;text-align: center; color:#666666; \'><EM>This is a simple HTML code for content. Here you may also set link to content page or ID of some element.</EM>', 'Safari Style', 'width=250,height=100,resizable,scrollbars,minimizable,fullscreen,bottom,left,fade-effect,opacity=1,floatable=yes', 'windows_safari')"><b>Open popup window</b></a>
Q: I would like to call a popup window (created in Deluxe Truner) from a deluxe menu item.
A: You should add the code for popup window on your html page with the menu:
<!-- Deluxe Popup Window -->
<noscript><a href="http://deluxepopupwindow.com">menu drop down by DeluxePopupWindow.com</a></noscript>
<script type="text/javascript" src="deluxe-popup-window.files/dpopupwindow.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="deluxe-popup-window.js"></script>
<!-- (c) 2006, DeluxePopupWindow.com -->
Inside menuItems you should open the window in the following way:
["Click to open Popup Window","javascript:deluxePopupWindow.open('window1', 'http://deluxepopupwindow.com', 'Popup window',
'width=420,height=300,resizable,scrollbars=no,middle,right,fade-effect', 'windowsvista_graphite','iframe')",
"", "", "", "", "0", "", "", "", "", ],

Q: Will tab titles ever automatically wrap?
Is there a way to force a wrap of a tab title in a tab menu java?
A: No, unfortunately, tab menu cannot wrap item text automatically.
But you can use
tag within item text, for example
var bmenuItems = [
["Item 1 text <br> text text text <br> text text text ","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["Item 2","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["Item 3","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
];
