Javascript Menu. DHTML Menu.

  • Setup menu parameters manually or using De Luxe Tuner. Then add some rows of a code within html page code and your menu is ready!
  • Use special Java Script methods for: Dynamic changing of items (link, text, icons, arrows and even individual style!). Addition/removing of items or submenus. Disabling and enabling menu items. Getting the info on every submenu, menu, and items. Changing appearance of items. Other coding tricks.
  • Cross-frame mode lets you to construct full-featured dhtml menus on the pages with frames. But for all that frame set it's not necessary to insert any additional code into all the pages - just specify several extra menu parameters.
  • Ability to handle the menu from the keyboard via keystrokes.

Q: Hello, I am trying to figure out how to use the Dynamic functionality in the java menu codes. I believe I want to use something like the dm_ext_changeItemVisibility function, and I want it to be dependent on HTML wrapped around the menu item.

Below is functionally how I want it to work:

Show menu item 1
Show menu item 2
<if condition="!is_member_of($bbuserinfo,10)">
Show menu item 3
</if>
Show menu item 4

Is there an example you can share that does something like this? I searched the site and could not find an answer.

A: Yes it's possible, please see
http://deluxe-menu.com/dynamic-functions-sample.html

Disable "Product Info/Installation" item.
and
Hide / show "Samples" item.

You can call these function via javascript depending on your conditions.



Q: I want to use single css drop down menu bar for each page without applying HTML Code for each page separatly.I mean to use CSS Menu as per our .JS Menu.

A: Unfortunately it is not possible with css menu.

On each page you should call css file with styles:

<link href="menu.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />

and add code for the menu on each page in the place where you want to have a menu, forexample:

<ul class="cssMenu cssMenum">
<li class=" cssMenui"><a class=" cssMenui" href="testlink.html">Home</a></li>
<li class=" cssMenui"><a class=" cssMenui" href="#"><span><img class="def" src="default.files/icon1.gif"/>
<img class="over" src="default.files/icon1o.gif">Product Info</span>
<![if gt IE 6]></a><![endif]><!--[if lte IE 6]><table><tr><td><![endif]-->
<ul class=" cssMenum">
<li class=" cssMenui"><a class=" cssMenui" href="testlink.html"><img class="def" src="default.files/icon2.gif"/>
<img class="over" src="default.files/icon2o.gif">Features</a></li>
</ul>
<!--[if lte IE 6]></td></tr></table></a><![endif]-->lt;/li>
<li class=" cssMenui"><a class=" cssMenui" href="testlink.htm">
<img class="def" src="default.files/icon1.gif"/>
<img class="over" src="default.files/icon1o.gif">Contact Us</a></li>
</ul>

You can also try to use frames.
Also you can use aserver-side script (php, asp, vb, etc.) to generate html pages fromtemplates on your server.



Q: I've downloaded and installed the trial software and have built the example that came with it.

What I would like to do is make the sub items ("New Sample 1" - "New Sample 5") display when the user clicks "Sample Block 1", rather than having to click the little + sign next to it.


A: You should set the following parameter:

  var texpandItemClick=1;

Try that.


Q: Hi - I've turned on tsavestate which works, but it acts erratically. I have my javascript cascade menu .js file in a /js folder, and the site has multiple directories, but all the pages in all directories use the same menu SSI include, which uses the same deluxemenu code in the common /js folder. I read your KB article about states, cookies and multiple folders, but it is confusing... does it actually save state per directory, versus per the entire domain? I only have one menu for the entire site.. just would like it to save state correctly for all pages in all folders that include that javascript cascade menu.

A: It's a feature of the browser. It creates different cookies for eachsubdirectory.The only way is to place all your pages in the one directory.
