Q: We want to evaluate Delux Menu(DM). But before doing any testing I want to ask few questions.
-#1 Can DM support context menus on right click with in a DIV and on a button click.
ex: I have a Options button on the web page and also a DIV which is transformed using xml and xsl.
Onclick of the button and right click within the DIV area should popup the same menu.
I have various DIVs and each DIV has its own context menu.
-#2 Any issues like IE memory leaks by using DM. I am asking this we are having some issues with the present menu control we are using. IE hangs up when the web page is idle for more than 20 mins.
A: 1. Deluxe Menus supports such a feature. Please, go tohttp://deluxe-menu.com, section "Samples->Functional Samples->Popup Menu"
You can create any number of menus on a page.
2. We don't know about such a problem with Deluxe Menu. Please, try atrial version of DM. It has a full functionality.
Q: Obviously your menus are NOT cross browser usable, as you can e.g. Padding does not work in opera, while it works in IE.
When will there be an update on that bug?
A: Deluxe Menu works fine in all browsers.
Try to set exact width for the menu width and menu height, try also to specify unitsin "px":
var menuWidth="500px";
var menuHeight="20px";
var smWidth="116px";
You should also check your padding parameter, you should write it so:
var itemPadding="1px 1px 1px 12px";
