Recent Questions

Q: I am using the menu in a frameset, and I would like for the selected menu branch of the side navigation bar to stay highlighted after the user moves the mouse to another window (where the menu brings up a new page),just so the user knows where he/she is. Is that possible?

A: If you open links in the another frame (window) the initial frame with your menu isnot reloaded, so the clicked item will be highlighted.
You should set the following parameters:

  var ttoggleMode=1;
  var tpressedFontColor="#AAAAAA";

You can also set the following parameter to save menu state:
  var tsaveState=1;
  var tsavePrefix="menu1";

If you install the menu without frames. On your pages you should call the following function/functions to expand/highlight items, for example:

<script>
dtreet_ext_expandItem (dtreet_ext_getItemIDByIndex (0, 0), 1);
dtreet_ext_setPressedItem (0, dtreet_ext_getItemIDByIndex (0, 1));
</script>

Q: I intend to purchase a copy of Deluxe menu where I will be using tree menu for a project. I have created the tree describing the menu and copied the data.Files folder, data.js file to the area where the HTML page is and pasted the relevant text into html file.

When opening the page, the tree menu in javascript is not displayed. Can you please help me resolve this problem. I have attached the data.files folder (in zipped form), the data.js file and the html page I am using

A: Now you have the following code on your html page:

<HTML>
<HEAD>
<script type="text/javascript" src="data.files/dtree.js"></script>
</HEAD>

<BODY>
</BODY>
</HTML>

It is not correct you should install the menu in the following way:

<HTML>
<HEAD>
<script type="text/javascript">  var tWorkPath="data.files/";</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="data.files/dtree.js"></script>

</HEAD>

<BODY>
<script type="text/javascript" src="data.files/data.js"></script>
</BODY>
</HTML>

You can use "Export to HTML" function in Deluxe Tuner.



Q: Will all your dhtml menu samples work cross-frame?


A: See how should you create cross frame menu:

1. To initialize the cross frame menu call dm_initFrame()
function instead of standard dm_init() function within data.js file:

dm_initFrame(framesetID, mainFrameInd, subFrameInd, orientation);

framesetID - id attribute of the frameset;
mainFrameInd - index of the main frame (where the top-menu is placed), >=0;
subFrameInd - index of the subframe (where the submenus will be shown), >=0;
orientation - frame orientaion: 0 - top-to-bottom, 1 - left-to-right; 2 - bottom-to-top; 3 - right-to-left.

So 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(); for example to dm_initFrame("frmSet", 0, 1, 0);

Q: Hi, I am testing your menu system for my company and would like to know how to keep the menu in the centre of the page like <centre></centre>.
I know how to do it without a floating menu but cannot work out how to do this with it floating.


A: When you use floatable menu you can't use relative menu position.
So, if you use

  var absolutePos = 0;

and to center the menu you use <p> or <div> with the center alignment your menu won't float.
To center your floatable menu you should set absolute coordinates.
