Q: I cannot see my menu in IE7. Please, help!
A: Try to set exact value for the menu width
var menuWidth="700px";
Try that.
Q: I need to be able to highlight the selected menu item of the sliding drop down menu.
A: 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: I like your product and we would like to use it for our web-site.
Our site uses Frames with the following names in the FrameSet:
frame name = “top”
frame name = “middle”
frame name = “bottom”
I don’t understand how to set the target of the Deluxe Tuner navigational link to populate the frame “middle” or “bottom”
When I try to input my own name it will not allow me to do so.
We are using the “top” (horizontal) frame as a header which will contain the navigational component we developed using your product.
We are using the “middle” frame to contain most of the html pages the user will load
We are using the “bottom” frame to contain auxiliary text
Can you help me?
A: More info about the installation of the menu in cross-frame mode youcan find here
http://deluxe-menu.com/cross-frame-mode-sample.html
You should replace dm_init() function with dm_initFrame() function.
Please, open your data.js file with the menu parameters in any texteditor and change it.
You should write, for example so:
dm_initFrame("frmSet", 1, 2, 0);
Q: I try to use the javascript menu popups to show an image; then when the mouse is over the image I dynamically generate a panel of http links. It works perfectly, but the problem is that I would like to do the same with several images (for instance 2) and different links : I'm not able to do that, whether I change the value of menuItems var or not, I display the same link values on both images (it seems menuItems is a global var and can be set only once).
Have you heard about this problem and could you give me a solution (this is a bit urgent, I have sold this solution to my customers) ?
A: See how you should call dm_popup() functions:
<img src="../../../../fileadmin/img/flag_de.gif" width="50" onMouseOver="return dm_popup(0, 2000, event);" style="cursor: pointer;">
// 0 - is ID of the first menu
....
<img src="../../../../fileadmin/img/flag_fr.gif" width="50" onMouseOver="return dm_popup(1, 2000, event);" style="cursor: pointer;">
// 1 - is ID of the second menu
// 2 - is ID of the third menu
... and so on.
