Q: I've purchased the mac style tabs. I've spent countless hours trying to get it to work, no luck so far. I've gotten jscript tabs to look okay on page, but links between pages do not work. I've even gotten them to work, but they were simple text menu's; not jscript tabs. But I haven't gotten the tabbed menu to work. Checked and tripled cheeked the instructions, still no luck.
I've uploaded the files to a test server.
There are four files cameron,carl,grace, and chantel; these are simple identical two column pages to test the links between tabs. NO LUCK. I'm about to give up on your program, can you please help.
A: You're using
var tabMode=0;
now. That means that you should use content DIV's ID instead of thelink.
If you want to open links you should write links in the following way:
["Cameron","link:cameron.html", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["Grace","link:grace.html", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["Carl","link:carl.html", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["Chantel","link:chantel.html", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],Q: I can't make my menu work in at Dreaweaver template - why?!
A: Deluxe Menu wasn't developed as Dreamweaver/Frontpage extension,BUT you can use it as standard Javascript files. To install the menuinto your html page:
1. open the page in Dreamweaver/Frontpage
2. open html source code of the page
3. add several rows of code (<script> tags), For info see:
http://deluxe-menu.com/installation-info.html
That's all.
To create and configure your menus use Deluxe Tuner application
(included into the trial package):

Q: I do not see any samples of the code and pages necessary for the drop down menu js works in a cross frame..
A: You should create your menu in Deluxe Tuner, save it.
Create html file with your frame set.
Set ID for the first frameset:
<FRAMESET id=frmSet rows=220,*>
<FRAME id=frame1 src="Deluxe Menu Samples_files/cross-frame-horizontal-1.htm"> //menu frame
<FRAME id=frame2 name=frame2 src="Deluxe Menu Samples_files/testlink.htm"> //content frame
</FRAMESET>
Then you should open your data file in any text editor and change
dm_init(); to dm_initFrame("frmSet", 0, 1, 0);
Q: I am currently testing the DHTML Tabs product, and I am trying to find ways of replicating how it is being done in your website at
http://deluxe-tabs.com/.
In your website, when I click on a Tab, the content relevant to that tab appears. I understand that the site is using "div id= " method to control. However, my question is how can I code the DIV to appear in the JS file of my mouseover tabs?
A: See, for each item you should assign the ID property of the contentDIV (see data file with your menu parameters).
["Style Name","contentName", "", "", "", "", "1", "", "", ],
["-","", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["Style Description","contentDescription", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["-","", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["Style Variations","contentVariations", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["-","", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["Empty","", "", "", "", "", "2", "", "", ],
And on your html page you should create DIV's with such ID.
<div id="contentName" style="height: 0%; visibility: hidden;" class="tabPage">
<br><br><br>
<p align=center><img src="img/style01_title.gif" width=140 height=90 alt="Glass Style Tabs"></p>
<br><br><br>
You should paste your content here!!!!!
</div>
<div id="contentDescription" style="height: 0%; visibility: hidden;" class="tabPage">
<br><br><br>
<p align=center><img src="img/style01_title.gif" width=140 height=90 alt="Glass Style Tabs"></p>
<br><br><br>
You should paste your description here!!!!!

You can paste any code within DIV's (PHP, Javascript ...)
