Recent Questions

Q: Is there a way to create a vertical menu in which the sub menus "fly out" to the left of the main menu?


A: Yes, it is possible.
To create vertical menu you should set

  var isHorizontal=0;

Why of showing submenu you can set so:

  var smViewType=2;


Q: I like your product a lot. These are the features that, unfortunately, cannot be done and hope that you can address them. I will place the order right away if these are resolved:
1. For each individual item, allow attaching a customized javascript to fire up "onclick" and "nomouseover".

2. Allow using a variable size icon for each item.


A: 1. You're able to use Javascript for each item, for example:

  var tmenuitems = [
["item text", "javascript:your_code_here"]
];

Unfortunately, you can't assign onmouseover event to each item.
However, you can achieve this by using standard html objects withinitems, for example:

  var tmenuitems = [
["<div onmouseover='your_code_here'>item text</div>", "index.html"]
];

2. DHTML Tree Menu uses constant icon size for all icons.
If you wantto use different icon dimensions, you can use standard <img>elements within items:

  var tmenuitems = [
["<img src='icon.gif' width=10 height=10>item text", "index.html"]
];


Q: Will all your navigation bar examples work cross-frame?

A: See how should you create cross frame menu:

1. To initialize the cross frame menu call dm_initFrame()
function instead of standard dm_init() function within data.js file:

dm_initFrame(framesetID, mainFrameInd, subFrameInd, orientation);

framesetID - id attribute of the frameset;
mainFrameInd - index of the main frame (where the top-menu is placed), >=0;
subFrameInd - index of the subframe (where the submenus will be shown), >=0;
orientation - frame orientaion: 0 - top-to-bottom, 1 - left-to-right; 2 - bottom-to-top; 3 - right-to-left.

So you should create your menu in Deluxe Tuner, save it.
Create html file with your frame set.

Set ID for the first frameset:
<FRAMESET id=frmSet rows=220,*>
<FRAME id=frame1 src="Deluxe Menu Samples_files/cross-frame-horizontal-1.htm"> //menu frame
<FRAME id=frame2 name=frame2 src="Deluxe Menu Samples_files/testlink.htm"> //content frame
</FRAMESET>

Then you should open your data file in any text editor and change
dm_init(); for example to dm_initFrame("frmSet", 0, 1, 0);

Q: It looks as though I should be able to have an icon before each item in the sub-menu in javascript tabs, but I don't seem to be able to get thisto work.

Could you please tell me how to fix this?


A: You can use icons before each item in the sub-menu.
You should use the following parameters:

- set icon in the "Item Parameters" window.
- set the width and height of this icon

  var biconWidth=7;
  var biconHeight=7;
  var biconAlign="left";
- set, for example

  var bbeforeItemSpace=15;
  var bsmItemAlign="left";
