Javascript Menu. DHTML Menu.

  • Tune menu parameters manually or using Deluxe Tuner. Then add several rows of a code within html page - your menu is ready!
  • Use special JavaScript functions for: Dynamic changing of items (text, link, icons and even individual style!). Making a menu item active/inactive. Addition/removing of items. Changing of visibility of items. Getting the information on any menu, submenu and items. Other tricks.
  • Opportunity to control the menu from the keyboard.
  • Cross-frame mode allows you to build full-featured menus on the pages that use frame-based structure. But for all that it's not necessary to insert any additional code into all the pages - just specify some additional parameters of the menu.

Q: Could you please help me with coding of the submenu box in your java script dropdown menu?
I hope you can see images I've included in this email.
I want to put a large block of text in the submenu.
Now I can do it like the code shown here and it wraps and works OK.
["Text display","", "", "", "", "", "0", "0", "", ],
 ["|Text Line 1 Text Line 1Text Line 1Text Line 1<br>text Line 2text Line 2text Line 2text Line 2<br>Text line 3Text line 3Text line 3Text line 3<br>text line 4text line 4text line 4text line 4text line 4", "", "", "", "", "", "", "0"],
];

The problem is that if I want a large amount of text, the line of code with text in it will be 10 miles long. Please note the line of code above isn't broken in practice. The email wraps it.

Is there any way to break the code into lines instead of one very long line?
For example:

["Text display","", "", "", "", "", "0", "0", "", ],
 ["|Text Line 1 Text Line 1Text Line 1Text Line 1<br>
Line 2text Line 2text Line 2text Line 2<br>
Text line 3Text line 3Text line 3Text line 3<br>
text line 4text line 4text line 4text line 4text line 4", "", "", "", "", "", "", "0"],
];

No matter what way I try It won't work
Is there a way?

A: The only way to do that is

 ["|Text Line 1 Text Line 1Text Line 1Text Line 1<br>"+
"Line 2text Line 2text Line 2text Line 2<br>"+
"Text line 3Text line 3Text line 3Text line 3<br>"+
"text line 4text line 4text line 4text line 4text line 4", "", "", "", "", "", "", "0"],
];



Q: Typically in order to generate a menu with multiple layers I’d put a pipe character in front of the menu text..  For example:

 ["|Page Admin","/admin/handoutadmin.php", , , , "_new", , , , ],
     ["||Student Pages","/admin/handoutadmin.php?type=1", , , , "_new", , , , ],
     ["||Teacher Pages","/admin/handoutadmin.php?type=2", , , , "_new", , , , ],
     ["||Family Letters","/admin/handoutadmin.php?type=4", , , , "_new", , , , ],
     ["||Transparencies","/admin/handoutadmin.php?type=3", , , , "_new", , , , ],

  However, when I try to do it with dm_ext_addItem it actually SHOWS the pipe character and doesn’t create any menu levels at all. 
For example:

dm_ext_addItem(0, 0, ["Add a Handout to this Lesson", "", "", "", "", "", ""]);

dm_ext_addItem(0, 0,  ["|Student Page","/admin/handoutadmin.php?type=$type", "", "", "", "_new", ""]);

dm_ext_addItem(0, 0,  ["|Teacher Page","/admin/handoutadmin.php?type=$type", "", "", "", "_new", ""]);

How can I generate multiple levels of the menu with javascript?

A: I suppose that your code is not valid
dm_ext_addItem(0, 0,  ["|Teacher Page", "/admin/handoutadmin.php?type=$type", "", "", "", "_new", ""]);

Try to write it in the following way:
dm_ext_addItem(0, 0,  ["|Teacher Page", "/admin/handoutadmin.php?type=", "", "", "", "_new", ""]);



Q: It all works great under IE, but when you view it in Firefox the fly-out menus (off of Products, Services & About Us) do not appear over the Flash animation to the right in IE.

It works fine under Firefox on all other pages apart form Home, because Home is the only page with containing the Flash animation.

Could you please have a look and let us know if this is a known issue (we're using the latest 8 dmenu .js file, time-stamped 11 April 2006).

Thanks in anticipation.


A: Please, try to set this parameter:

  var dmObjectsCheck=1;


Q: Please identify the parameter I need to set to produce ... Tree menu items start out as normal text , then Bold text for tree menu items on the onmouseover event . After mouse out, text returns to normal.


A: Unfortunately, Deluxe Tree doesn't have such a feature. You should addthe following code in your data file:

function changeFont(obj, over)
{
obj.style.fontWeight = over ? 'bold' : 'normal';
obj.style.fontSize = over ? '13px' : '12px'; // You can not use this line
}

  var tmenuItems = [

["<div onMouseOver='changeFont(this, 1)' onMouseOut='changeFont(this, 0)'>Security</div>","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["<div onMouseOver='changeFont(this, 1)' onMouseOut='changeFont(this, 0)'>Ease of Access</div>","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
 ["|<div onMouseOver='changeFont(this, 1)' onMouseOut='changeFont(this, 0)'>Internet Options</div>","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
 ["|<div onMouseOver='changeFont(this, 1)' onMouseOut='changeFont(this, 0)'>Windows Firewall</div>","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["<div onMouseOver='changeFont(this, 1)' onMouseOut='changeFont(this, 0)'>Network and Internet</div>","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
];

Please, notice also that you should add this function every time whenyou change your menu in Deluxe Tuner application, as Tuner deletesthis function.
