Q: I have a question that I cannot find in your FAQ section about your Deluxe Tree Menu.
Bought the whole set a few days ago and is very happy about it, I am uzzled & frustrated about one thing now though.
- = Link
+ = Link with subCat.
I have a menu that looks something like this:
- Home
+ Our products
+ FAQ
+ Stores
- Contact
+ Wholeseller
+ About us
Now every link here has a icon/s to the right that shows if the category is folded up or not. Trouble is that so has the - Home and - Contact that DON'T have any subitems! How to create dhtml menu so those two tree items won't get the rightsided icons?
The frustrating/confusing thing is if I place - Home or - Contact into lets say + Our products, the right side icon goes away and there it looks as I want it. But I NEED it to look this way in the top section.
A: You have icons in the top items on the right side in XP-style only.
You can set the following parameter to turn off XP-style:
var tXPStyle=0;
Q: How can I open the links that I created for the web drop menu /sub-menu on the same window (not on a new window)
A: You can set target parameter for all items:
var itemTarget="_self";
or for each item individually:
["","testlink.htm","http://images.myregistry.com/images/myregistry/tabs/thingstodo.gif", "http://images.myregistry.com/images/myregistry/tabs/thingstodo1.gif", "Home Tip","_self", "0", "0", , ],
Q: When a user click on an item in the dhtml side menu I need to target the execution of that link to a different IFrame in the same page, is that supported?
A: Set the following parameter:
var titemTarget="name";
where name is the name of your Iframe.
You can also specify the target for each item individually:
["|Home","testlink.htm", "default.files/icon1_s.gif", "default.files/icon1_so.gif", "", "Home Page Tip", "name", "", "", "", ],
Q: When i stay on one page so must have the menue-point of the html menu for this page another color or font. How can i make this?
A: You should set pressed item.
Please, check the following parameter
var pressedItem=-2;
This parameter sets an index of an item that will be highlighted by default.
-2 - the toggle mode is disabled;
-1 - the toggle mode is enabled, but no items highlighted by default;
0,1,2,3,... - index of highlighted item in a top-menu.
You can 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.
You can also set the correct
var pressedItem=1;
parameter on each html page.
