Q: Hello, I am interesting in purchasing your product, but first I need to know if it is possible to call a JavaScript function from the menu.  I have read the FAQ and noted where it lists that you can perform an alert call, and that worked on my end as well, but when I attempted to call a function I created I could not get it to respond.  Is it possible to call a function from your menu?  Could I get an example?


A: You can write your own functions within menuItems, for example:

 ["|Real-Time Data Query","javascript:window.open('http://www.domain.org/', '_blank','height=758,width=1024,status=yes,toolbar=no, menubar=no,location=no');",,,'Query real time water quality data' ,'' , '', '', ,],


Q: How do assign my own onclick events to menu options for the dhtml menubar?
I want do more than just redirect to an href.

A: Actually you can use your own Javascript code instead standard links.
For example:

  var menuItems = [
["text", "javascript:your_code_here"]
];

or

  var menuitems = [
["<div onClick='your_code_here'>item text</div>", ""]
];



Q: I've encountered a problem when I was creating my collapsible menu javascript. I got an error message when I was creating my menu as follows:

----------------------------------
There is the error in the data file. The menu won't be loaded correctly.

Line: 361
Char: 3
Code: 0
Message:']' f=F6rv=E4ntas
----------------------------------

A: You have errors in your data file now. It is not correctly to writeitems in the following way:

   ["||10"","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
   ["||11"","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],

You should write:

   ["||10","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
   ["||11","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],


Q: I am trying to install a search engine on my site and am having trouble due to my use of your tree-menu system, which I love by the way.  I really need to find a compatible script that will search your javascript menu system, or at the very least search another file with mirrored links.  I DO NOT want to add the links to each page, this is why I love your menu's, there is one central location to change navigation statewide.

Do you know if there is a search script that can do this( js, php) or is there a way to make your javascript tree menus accessible to the search engine?


A: You can generate search engine friendly code.
Deluxe Tree is a search engine friendly menu since v2.4.
To create a search engine friendly menu you should add additional html code within your html page:

<div id="dmlinks">
<a href="http://deluxe-menu.com">menu_item_text1</a>
<a href="http://deluxe-tree.com">menu_item_text2</a>
...etc.
</div>

To generate such a code use Deluxe Tuner application.
You can find this GUI in the trial package.
Run Tuner, load your menu and click Tools/Generate SE-friendly Code (F3).
