Recent Questions

Q: I haven’t had any problems using the drop line menu, until now when I had to make some changes. After adding some sub-menu items on two of the drop line menu buttons, those menu’s drop down upwards, instead of downwards like the rest. I tried deleting them and remaking them, but then the menu appeared to have no image behind it, only a colour. So I duplicated a working menu item, and then modified it to be what I wanted – and it still drop down upwards!

A: Please check the following drop line menu parameter:

  var subMenuVAlign="top";



Q: I am interesting to use it for integration in some CMS I am currently using, as for instance : Xoops

1. Do you think that it is possible easily to integrate your menus with the xoops database content for the texts and links ?

2. Where links are they specified in the Deluxe Tuner interface
Thanks for your help


A: 1) Deluxe Menu wasn't developed as Xoops extension,BUT you can use it as standard Javascript files.
To create and configure your menus use Deluxe Tuner application
(included into the trial package): http://deluxe-menu.com/deluxe-tuner-info.html

Please, try the trial version.

2) You can assign link for each item. You can do it in "ItemParameter" window "Link" field.


Q: When I load a page the first tab of the creating tab menu is always highlighted, not the contact tab.

A: I suppose that you've set the following parameter:

  var bselectedItem=1;

So, the first tab is always highlighted.

This Tab menu can save pressed item automatically within1 page only.
If you open another page, the menu can't remember presseditem.
You should do that manually using Javascript and menu parameters
(  var bselectedItem,   var bselectedSmItem) or using any server-sidescript (php, asp, etc.)

You should delete this parameter from your data file and write thefollowing code
on each page before you call your data file, for example:

<script language="JavaScript1.2">

  var bselectedItem = 3;

</script>





Q: I am trying to create a multicolumn dhtml navigation menu and nothing appears when I upload it to my server. I am attaching my menu called menu.js that I have created and placed in a folder called menudir.

Can you please advise, thank you.

A: You can find more info here:
http://www.deluxe-menu.com/highlighted-items-sample.html

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">dhtml navigation 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.
