Javascript Menu. DHTML Menu.

  • Create contextual menus for your pages. For this purpose you should assign a special function for the object you want. The current coordinates of the mouse pointer or your own ones can be used for the contextual menu.
  • When the submenu is larger than the visible area of the page the submenu will be automatically decreased. To see all the submenu items you do not need to use scrollbars or something like that - just put your mouse to the bottom of a submenu and it will be automatically scrolled! You can also specify height and width for each separate submenu.
  • Build menus completely based on Cascading Style Sheets. It is possible to appoint the individual CSS styles for separate elements of the menu.

Q: We have a problem with true type fonts. The dropdown menu in html does not showing properly for Turkish letters. We are using true type fonts (bold 10px TR Tahoma).

A: Font.If there will be no TR Tahoma font on the user machinethe font won't be shown correctly.
You can find another font similar to your font and write it through a comma.

You should choose the font among the following fonts:
Arial
Tahoma
Times New Roman
Trebuchet MS
Verdana
These fonts are installed on the most of windows computers.

For example:
  var fontStyle=["bold 9px TR Tahoma, Tahoma","bold 9px TR Tahoma, Tahoma"];

Or you can create images with text and use it for the top items.

Encoding.

You can save your data file in UTF-8 in Windows version of DeluxeTuner v3.2.5.

You should turn on "Tools/Use utf8 encode" property.In that case your data file will be saved in UTF-8 encode.

Enter these symbols and save your data file.

If you don't want to use UTF-8 encode on your page you should turn off"Tools/Use utf8 encode" property, save your data file and manuallychange your letters in any text editor.

You can also replace your letters with special sets, for example
É - Capital E, acute accent - É
ç - Small c, cedilla - ç
  var menuItems = [

["É....","testlink.html", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["ç....","testlink.html", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],



Q: One other issue I'm having is that the content for the menu bar in java "selected tab" on my site does not show up in IE7. Works fine in firefox, though. Any ideas about that?

A: Try to delete height: 0%; parameter from the styles:

<div id="content1" style="height: 0%; visibility: hidden;" class="tabPage">

So you'll have:
<div id="content1" style="visibility: hidden;" class="tabPage">


Q: I have the menu working perfectly on the main page of the website,but when I try to install menu javascripts onto html files that appear in subfolders of the site, the images do not appear.

A: You can use additional parameters to make menu paths absolute:

  var pathPrefix_img = "http://domain.com/images/";
  var pathPrefix_link = "http://domain.com/pages/";

These parameters allow to make images and links paths absolute.
For example:

  var pathPrefix_img = "http://domain.com/images/";
  var pathPrefix_link = "http://domain.com/pages/";

  var menuItems = [
["text", "index.html", "icon1.gif", "icon2.gif"],
];

So, link path will be look so:
http://domain.com/pages/index.html

Images paths will be look so:
http://domain.com/images/icon1.gif
http://domain.com/images/icon2.gif

Please, try to use these parameters.


Q: How do your users normally indicate which page a web visitor is on, by using your navigation bar submenu?

A: 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, for
example:

<noscript><a href="http://deluxe-menu.com">Javascript 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.
