Q: In IE7 I see the deluxe-menu.com link on the top and no horizontal menu items on my page.
In Firefox it will work fine.
Can you help me to get the Solution?
A: Your browser has JavaScript option disabled.
It means that no one JavaScript element can be run.
You should to enable JavaScript in IE:
Tools -> Internet Options -> Security -> Custom level... -> Scripting -> Active Scripting = Enable
There is no way to enable these preferences automatically, in othercase there are no reasons to create security preferences.
You can use search engine friendly code, so you'll see all yourlinks (for the main items and submenus) when your security settings in IE doesn't allow Javascript.
You can generate search engine friendly code.
Deluxe Menu is a search engine friendly menu since v1.12.
To create a search engine friendly menu you should add additional html code within your html page:
<div id="dmlinks">
<a href="http://deluxe-menu.com">menu_item_text1</a>
<a href="http://deluxe-tree.com">menu_item_text2</a>
...etc.
</div>
To generate such a code use Deluxe Tuner application.
You can find this GUI in the trial package.
Run Tuner, load your horizontal menu and click Tools/Generate SE-friendly Code (F3).
Q: You have a great, and very intuitive and easy to learn, product.
I'm down to two dumb questions:
A. What controls the little red arrows? I'd like them on every one of the navigators.
B. How do I create equal space between the drop down menu items? It looks weird right now.
A: 1) If your top item has a submenu this arrow will appear automatically.
For the items without submenus you may write:
["Home <img src='skin_data.files/arrowmain11.gif'>","index.html", "", "", "", "_self", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["About Us <img src='skin_data.files/arrowmain11.gif'>","about_us.html", "", "", "", "_self", "", "", "", "", "", ],
You can find arrowmain11.gif image in the attached example.
Actually you can add any html code inside item's text.
2) Set the drop down menu padding:
var itemPadding="3px 15px 3px 3px";
Q: It is mostly working now except where I have two rows of nav tabs.. The top row opens new pages and the bottom row is just regular div tabs... works fine in IE and Firefox but not Chrome... any ideas?
A: Try to open links in the following way:
var bmenuItems = [
["Overview","link:Sun_Cabo_Services.asp", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["-"],
["Villa Services","link:Cabo_Villa_Services.asp", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["-"],
["Chef/Cook Services","link:Cabo_Chef_Services.asp", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["-"],
["Spa Services","link:Cabo_Spa_Services.asp", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
];
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>
