Q: I was able to install the rollover dropdown menu pretty easily. However, how do I make the text of it bigger for the main items? I can change the text easily for the subitems.
I can't find anyway to do this. Also, if I edit the size of the before/after for the buttons, do I need to edit anything else in the javascript? Most of their heights is 23px but I wnat to make it 27px.
Let me know and I will purchase the software if I can get it to work.
A: Try to change Individual Item styles. I suppose that you're usingIndividual style for the top items now.
Q: I used the glass template to create my menu.... but I needed to add additional tabs, and my additional tabs do not look like the rest of the net dropdown menu tabs... its like the end-caps on the images are not there and I don’t find any clear instruction on how to get my added tabs to look like the existing ones.
A: You should assign Individual styles for the new items. You can findthis info in the Templates window.
Q: I have made use of the Ajax function in Deluxe Menu. It has made maintenance of a rather complex menu system a lot easier.
I went to generate a Site Map in dhtml menu builder today and realized a shortcoming of using Ajax submenus, the Site Map doesn't show Ajax submenus.
It would be great to have an option in the Generate Site Map (as well as Google XML and Google Search) to include Ajax submenus for a complete picture of the web site.
A: Unfortunately there are such problems with saving of AJAX submenus.
It is not possible to save AJAX submenus in Deluxe Tuner now and it is not possible tocreate search engine friendly code and sitemap for the AJAX submenus.
We'll try to add such features in the future versions of Deluxe Tuner.
Q: I am currently tasked with creating a large intra-type net for our company. ( knowledge base, FAQ etc. for internal use only ).
At this time I am making plain text or table based menus and getting tired of having to add the drop menus to EVERY page individually in our little intra-web. I would like to purchase software that makes groovy looking menus, but also get the information needed to have them appear on ALL pages after editing the menu once if you know what I mean.
Unfortunately my web authoring experience is best suited to circa-1996 web pages I can hash out in notepad in my sleep. However, I have been told in order to do what I am doing I need to use CSS or styles or cascading stylesheets and not sure if your software will do that.
If I purchase this software and whip up a neat little menu, would you be able to send me information on how to include it in a css as I described above? I would essentially need to know the code or commands to have it appear in all of the pages I create, once I make the menu file. If that is something you can assist me with, I can purchase this right away.
A: Deluxe Menu is Javascript code only. It requires several .js files andit's generated on a client side.
If you don't want to create your drop menus on each page, you can try to useframes, the menu has a cross-frame mode. Also you can use aserver-side script (php, asp, vb, etc.) to generate html pages fromtemplates on your server.
