Q: We haven't managed to find out how to activate a popup window through click in a flash? Is there possible to call a single jsfunction to activate it?
A: You can deluxePopupWindow.open() function to open your window:
<a href="javascript:;" onclick="deluxePopupWindow.open('window1', 'Content1 Content1','Window1','width=220,height=100,resizable,scrollbars=no,middle,right,fade-effect', 'windowsvista_graphite')">

I am using the development version no source code. I only get the error when adding sub menu items. When it only has the top level menu items everything works fine. I have attached the script, which the portion I generate works fine when I open it using the deluxe tuner application. I am generating the menu from .Net.
I am also attaching the generated html file.
Any help with this would be appreciated. do I add padding around a top menu item?
A: Now you have the following parameters:
var moveImage=";
var transOptions=";
It is not correct. You should write:
var moveImage='';
var transOptions='';
Q: I am trying to have the selected top item in the pop up menu remain on the mouseover event after it is selected.
It seemed to be working fine when i was just testing with # as a link
but when i actually linked to different pages it returns to normal.
How do i get this to work?
A: You can find more info here:
http://www.deluxe-menu.com/highlighted-items-sample.html
Deluxe Menu has only two states normal and mouseover.
Try to do the following things:
- delete var pressedItem=1; parameter from your data file
- set correct parameter on each page before you call data file, forexample:
<noscript><a href="http://deluxe-menu.com">Javascript Menu by Deluxe-Menu.com</a></noscript>
<script type="text/javascript"> var dmWorkPath = "menudir/";</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="menudir/dmenu.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript"> var pressedItem=3;</script>
...
<script type="text/javascript" src="menudir/data.js"></script>
You can also set a pressed item using Javascript API:
function dm_ext_setPressedItem (menuInd, submenuInd, itemInd, recursion)
Sets a current pressed item.
menuInd - index of a menu on a page, >= 0.
submenuInd - index of a submenu, >= 0.
itemInd - index of an item, >=0.
recursion = true/false - highlight parent items.
But notice, to use dm_ext_setPressedItem() you should know ID of selected item and subitem.
You can't get this ID after you reload your page. That is why you should write your own code on PHP.
Q: Can you tell me the difference between a target and a link.
Also can you explain what self, blank, top, parent, search and custom mean in the javascript menu table please.
A: Link is the url you want to open when you click on the javascript menu table item.
Target controls where you'll open your link:
"_self" - open link in the same window
"_blank" - open link in the new window
"_parent" - will load the linked document where the inner frameset file had been
"_top" - loads the linked document in the topmost frame
custom - you should write here the name of the frame where you want to
open the linked document, for example:
"framename"
"_search" - this target causes the link to load in the browser's Search pane. (Internet Explorer 5.0 and later.)
