Q: Greetings..... I am new to java script and would like to have a drop down menu that I can use with frames....
I downloaded your program and have created a small menu to try to become familiar with the program and see if I can accomplish getting a menu to display on a new page...... I am currently using Page Mill.
When I created the menus, I saved them as TstBuy and it was saved in the Deluxe-menu folder.
Having read a number of your information displays plus lacking the knowledge of what files and where to place them, I would appreciate any information you can offer as to what files to place in the main Page Mill folder if that is where they go??
As for the data I created (TstBuy), I thought that I would be able to copy and paste that file into the Page Mill page within a text box, but the paste feature was not available...
Thanks for any assistance you can offer..
A: Thanks for your interest in our products.
Deluxe Menu wasn't developed as Page Mill/Dreamweaver/Frontpage extension,BUT you can use it as standard Javascript files.
You can try to export your menu into html page using Deluxe Tunerapplication and then copy the code from the generated html page into your html page.You should click in Deluxe Tuner "File/Export/To HTML". You'll getsuch files:
deluxe-menu.files/
image_files.gif
dmenu.js
dmenu4.js
dmenu_add.js
dmenu_dyn.js
dmenu_key.js
dmenu_cf.js
dmenu_popup.js
dmenu_ajax.js
data-deluxe-menu.js
deluxe-menu.html
There is no need to use all files from the "deluxe-menu.files/"folder.
The description of files you can find here:
http://deluxe-menu.com/description-of-files-info.html
You can delete all files which are not necessary for you.
To install the menu into your html page:
1. open the page in Page Mill/Dreamweaver/Frontpage
2. open html source code of the page (deluxe-menu.html)
3. add several rows of code (<script> tags), For info see:
http://deluxe-menu.com/installation-info.html
You should also copy "deluxe-menu.files/" folder, all image files anddata-deluxe-menu.js in the same folder with your html page.
For example, you'll have such structure:
deluxe-menu.files/
image_files.gif
dmenu.js
dmenu_add.js
data-deluxe-menu.js
your_html_page_from_Page_Mill.html
That's all.
Q: I'm trying deluxe-menu, but when I'm making my own menu, I often get error messages.
It will not work. I get these messages when I use individual styles.It is a very nice program, but I think with a few bugs.
A: You have errors in your data file.
["|De Groese Til","", , , , , , "0", , ],
["|De Supermarkt","", , , , , , "0", , ],
In this items you assigned menu styles, but there is no menu style in your parameters. You have only item style.
You should write them so:
["|De Groese Til","", , , , , "0", , , ], ["|De Supermarkt","", , , , , "0", , , ],
Q: I have in my script the following entry
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript1.2" src="resources/deluxe-menue/dmenu.js"></script>
<noscript><a href=http://deluxe-menu.com/>(c)2008 Javascript Menu by Deluxe-Menu.com</a></noscript>
but I get the notice "Incorrect Copyright" in my double drop down menu. What did I make wrong?
A: You should write NOSCRIPT tag in the following way:
<noscript><a href="http://deluxe-menu.com">(c)2008 double drop down menu by Deluxe-Menu.com</a></noscript>
Make sure that you're using last version of Deluxe Menu.
You can download last version of Deluxe Menu from the same link inyour license message.
Q: Is it possible that a menuitem of the js dropdown menu stays highlighted after clicking and loading the new html site?
A: The menu has only two states normal and mouseover. We'll try to add the pressed state in the future.
You can set a pressed item using Javascript API:
function dm_ext_setPressedItem (menuInd, submenuInd, itemInd, recursion)
Sets a current pressed item.
menuInd - index of a menu on a page, >= 0.
submenuInd - index of a submenu, >= 0.
itemInd - index of an item, >=0.
recursion = true/false - highlight parent items.
But notice, to use dm_ext_setPressedItem() you should know ID of selected item and subitem.
You can't get this ID after you reload your page. That is why you should write your own code on PHP.
You can also set the correct
var pressedItem=1;
parameter on each html page.
