Q: I have used one of your products in the past, but bare with me as I am not a programmer. It was a Basic Horizontal Menu that I used mostly the defaults with.
I have a New website that needs to have more than one MENU....
1 - Header = (Horizontal) Drop down Menu
2 - Right Side Bar = (Vertical) MAIN Menu with sub-menus
3 - Lower Side Bar = (Vertical) Menu #2 with sub-menu
4 - Footer Menu = (Horizontal) Pop-up Menu?
I am not sure how this all would be accomplished on one page.
I have tried reading the INFO on the site but I get lost in all the data.
Could you explain a little better please?
A: You can add as many menus as you want on the one page.
You should call
<SCRIPT type=text/javascript> var dmWorkPath = "data.files/";</SCRIPT>
<SCRIPT src="data.files/dmenu.js" type=text/javascript></SCRIPT>
and then call your data files:
<SCRIPT src="data.files/data1.js" type=text/javascript></SCRIPT>
<SCRIPT src="data.files/data2.js" type=text/javascript></SCRIPT>
<SCRIPT src="data.files/data3.js" type=text/javascript></SCRIPT>
<SCRIPT src="data.files/data4.js" type=text/javascript></SCRIPT>
Q: I use your deluxe menu for my personal website and want to use it for a client site that we are putting together at work. However, there is one challenge. Some of the sites we build for our clients are internal only and do not have a proper domain name. In the case of my current client, the site answer to a servername call from within the network. Eg. http://WebServer1/ . They will NOT have a proper domain name (eg www.mysite.com). So, my question is, how can we purchase a license and have this work? Does your licensing need to be tied to a domain name to work? Also, the client has not yet confirmed the server name. How will this work?
A: You need to register the hostname of the website (as appears in the URL, for examplehttp://yourintranet/ , http://WebServer1/).
In you case you should register "WebServer1".
< Does your licensing need to be tied to a domain name to work?
Single and Multiple Website licenses are bound to a domain name.
Developer License - this version of the script doesn't check keys and it isn't bound to a domain name,so it can be used with an application that doesn't have a fixed domain name.
For your new client you can buy Single Website License. You can alsoupgrade to Multiple Website license for the price difference and generate your own keys for theclients or you can upgrade to Developer License.
Q: Hi, just a quick question, is it possible to change which tab is displayed when the page is first rendered.
For instance, if you have 4 tabs, going right to left, can you load the css menu tabs with the second tab being displayed first?
A: See, if you use Tab Mode
var tabMode = 1;
var bselectedItem = 0; //main items
var bselectedSmItem = -1; //submenus
If you use
var tabMode = 0;
var bselectedItem = 0;
See, the ID of the item starts with 0.
So, if you use TabMode ( var tabMode=1;):
var bselectedItem = 4;
["-", ] - separator, ID = 0
["Mac Tab 1", "content1"], ID = 1
["Subitem1","testlink.html",] ID = 2
["Subitem2","testlink.html",] ID = 3
["Mac Tab 2", "content2"], ID = 4 // selected tab
["Subitem1","testlink.html",] ID = 5
["Subitem2","testlink.html",] ID = 6
["Mac Tab 3", "content3"], ID = 7
["Subitem1","testlink.html",] ID = 8
["Subitem2","testlink.html",] ID = 9
["Mac Tab 4", "content4"], ID = 10
["Subitem1","testlink.html",] ID = 11
["Subitem2","testlink.html",] ID = 12
If you use tabs ( var tabMode=0;):
var bselectedItem = 2;
["-", ] - separator, ID = 0
["Mac Tab 1", "content1"], ID = 1
["Mac Tab 2", "content2"], ID = 2 // selected tab
["Mac Tab 3", "content3"], ID = 3
["Mac Tab 4", "content4"], ID = 4
Q: We had a strange problem with the menus when the sub menus are over applet in https: the applet disappeared.
After doing some Investigation in your code we noticed that you are using in HTTPS mode div instead of Iframe.
We would be happy if you can tell us why you are using div in this mode and if we will use http mode will it cause something that can affect the menus
A: Iframes don't work on https:// websites. You'll get warning message. That's why we're using <div> tag.If for some reasons a submenu can't drop down over an object the latterwill be hidden for a time when the submenu is shown.
If you use Deluxe Menu on https:// website, submenus won't drop downover select boxes within iframe objects. It works fine on a non-secureservers only.
