Q: Where can I give the body of the javascript method which I use in cool dhtml menu?
A: You can define functions after menuItems, before you call dm_init();function.
var menuItems = [
["text", "javascript:your_function(...)", ...]
];
Where your_function(...):
function your_function(...)
{
.....
}
Q: I have tried various different ways, but I cannot get a separator image
I have specified in the Separators section of menu generator to display in.
I have verified that the image exists, but still nothing.
A: To add a separator you should
//--- Separators
var separatorImage=""; //for subitems (top items in vertical menu)
var separatorWidth="100%";
var separatorHeight="3px";
var separatorAlignment="right";
var separatorVImage="separator.gif"; //for the top items (subitems items in vertical menu)
var separatorVWidth="100%";
var separatorVHeight="2px";
var separatorPadding="";
You can create separators using menuItems
(you can do it in DeluxeTuner, use "Add separator" button),
for example:
["||All Images","gallery_all.html", , , , "_self", , , , ],
["||-"],
["||Pricing & Ordering Info","gallery_pricing.html", , , ,"_self", , , , ],
Try that.
Q: Irene, thank you. I am working on seeing what you did and trying to get it to work on my computer. I keep getting ActiveX blocking errors when open page with the drop down menu source code on my computer. Is this something I can control from within the html code? Or is this something each user is going to have to change setting(s) in their IE Internet Options?
p.s., I had the code on the page twice cuz was just trying to get something... anything.... to work. I deleted the 2nd set which was further down on the page. I'm trying to get the menus to appear in the grey band just below the blue heading section but prior to the white text description section. And, once I get the menus to work, the navigation bar on left will be deleted. Thank you so much for your patience and help!
A: You can get the following message
"To help protect your security in IE ..."
on your local machine only. You won't have such message when you openyour website via Internet.
If you don't want to see this message you should do the followingthings:
Tools/Internet Options/Advanced Options/
and set
"Allow active content from files to run on My Computer".
Close Internet Explorer and open it once again.
There will be no such message any more.
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";
