Q: What I want to do is use your XP Tabs Template.
It appears fine in the Preview Pane but when I load it on my web page the sub-items are all listed on the same line as the tabs.
A: If you want to create subtabs in your menu you should use Tab Mode
var tabMode=1;
and write your bmenuItems in the following way:
var bmenuItems = [
["-","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["XP Tab 1","content1", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["XP Tab 2","content2", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["|SItem 226","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["XP Tab 3","content3", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["|SXP Tab 4","content4", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["-","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
];
but in that case you can't assign the ID of the DIV to show when youclick on the tab. You can set the links only.
Q: Can your free dhtml menu have boarderes around the sub-menus only..
A: You should create Individual style and assign it to the first item in each submenu.
var menuStyles = [
["menuBorderWidth=1","menuBorderStyle=solid","menuBorderColor=#813A07"],
];
var menuItems = [
["Home","testlink.html", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["Product Info","", "border-example.files/icon1.gif", "border-example.files/icon1o.gif", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["|Features","testlink.html", "border-example.files/icon2.gif", "border-example.files/icon2o.gif", "", "", "", "0", "", ],
Q: I used the drop menu creator to create a simple tab example, and I created a simple HTML file to display the tabs. It initially appears fine when the page first displays (e.g., the correct div is hidden), but when I *first* click on a tab I always get a javascript error deep in the .js code. Then I click around a bit between the tabs and get some display problems (no more javascript errors though), until finally the show/hide logic recovers and all looks ok.
The error I initially get is something like “tabs[…].id is not an object”. I have the IE7 debugger turned on, otherwise I might not ever see this error.
FYI, I tried your example menus on your web site and everything is fine! Maybe the .js files on your web site are not the same as those created by the generator?
A: You should set the following parameter in drop menu creator:
var bselectedSmItem=0;
Q: I want that the font of an selected menupoint for the horizontal tree view is bold and red.
What is the variable to define that?
A: Try to use the following parameter:
var tpressedFontColor = "#AA0000";
// Color of a text of selected items. Used when var ttoggleMode = 1.
