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: I am totally confused by this now but I have 2 data files - one for a menu bar going horizontal and one going vertical both containing the same information. But even though the content is the same, the layout is different.

You will see that on the horizontal menu,

Fleet
Financce
CPC Cards
Cashire

These are listed correctly under each other but on the vertical one, the layout differs.


A: You should write your parameters more carefully.
See, now you have

menuItems = [
["About us","javascript:alert('Coming Soon')", , , ,"" ,0 , , , ],
   ["|||Organisation Chart","javascript:alert('Coming Soon')", , , ,"" ,1, , , ],

First you have the 1-st level of menu items then at once 4-th. It isnot right. You should write the number of your Individual Style in ""also.

See, how you should write your menuItems:

menuItems = [
["About us","javascript:alert('Coming Soon')", , , ,"" ,"0" , , , ],
 ["|Organisation Chart","javascript:alert('Coming Soon')", , , ,"","1", , , ],
 ["|Who's Who?","/k6intranet2.nsf/PageTitleLookup/Who's Who?OpenDocument", , , ,"" ,"1", , , ],

Q: I created a custom error page for a site, but the menu would not display.

I found that this was due to the erroneous "current directory" in the bad link test, for a non-existent directory.

which is: level2/level3/

I changed the script code from:
<script type="text/javascript">  var dmWorkPath = "DMworkfiles/";</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="DMworkfiles/dmenu.js"></script>

to:

<script type="text/javascript">  var dmWorkPath = "DMworkfiles/";</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="/DMworkfiles/dmenu.js"></script>

adding the "/" before "DMworkfiles/dmenu.js" source reference allowed the .js file to be found in the root directory and the menu would display.

The problem is that the little menu "expansion" arrow .gif cannot be found in the "current working directory" of level2/level3/. just little "blanks" show.

I tried changing:
  var dmWorkPath = "DMworkfiles/";

to:
  var dmWorkPath = "/DMworkfiles/";

but that did not enable the display of the arrows.

I also had to prefix all of the links in the menu with a "/" to indicate the root directory because of the "current directory" for the bad page.

I hope I have explained the problem sufficiently.
What am I doing wrong or missing here?


A: You can use additional parameters to make menu paths absolute:

  var pathPrefix_img = "http://domain.com/images/";
  var pathPrefix_link = "http://domain.com/pages/";

These parameters allow to make images and links paths absolute.
For example:

  var pathPrefix_img = "http://domain.com/images/";
  var pathPrefix_link = "http://domain.com/pages/";

  var menuItems = [
["text", "index.html", "icon1.gif", "icon2.gif"],
];

So, link path will be look so:
http://domain.com/pages/index.html

Images paths will be look so:
http://domain.com/images/icon1.gif
http://domain.com/images/icon2.gif

Please, try to use these parameters


Q: Can your menu, when placed in a master page, be propagated throughout an application's sub-folders
or will the html menu need to be added to each page separately?

A: If you don't want to create your menu on each page you can use a
server-side script (php, asp, vb, etc.) to generate html pages from
templates on your server.

However, these scripts don't work inside of Javascript .js files, so,
you should move parameters of a menu from a .js file into an html-page, e.g.:

<!-- Deluxe Menu -->
<noscript><a href="http://deluxe-menu.com">Javascript Menu by Deluxe-Menu.com</a></noscript>
<script type="text/javascript">  var dmWorkPath = "menudir/";</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="menudir/dmenu.js"></script>
<!-- (c) 2006, http://deluxe-menu.com -->

<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript1.2">
// and describe parameters of a menu
  var parameter1=value1;
  var parameter2=value2;
etc.

  var menuItems = [
// here you generate items using server-side scripts (php, asp, vb, etc.)
];


The example of the menu working with PHP/MYSQL you can find here:
http://deluxe-menu.com/rq-loading-bar-MySQL-support.html

You can use cross frame menu. It allows you to build full-featured menus on the pages
that use frame-based structure. And it's not necessary to insert any code into all the pages -
just specify the additional parameters of the menu and initialize it.

To install the menu in a cross-frame mode, see more info here:

Q: Does deluxe menu need Java Virtual Machine installed on the computer that is trying to view the web site with a deluxe menu on it?


A: This menu doesn't require any external plug-ins to be installed.

If you can't see the menu in all browsers you should change security browser settings to allow Javascript on pages you load.

When your security browser settings doesn't allow Javascript onpages you load you can't see a dynamic page content.
