Q: I have a question, How can I open a new window of a specific dimension?
I Know how to use the “_blank” property to open a new window. But then how can I indicate the size of the new Window?
Can you please help me?
A: You should use a Javascript code with a link field so:
["Text", "javascript:window.open('../Help/Text_Index.htm', 'Help', 'height=450,width=600,scrollbars');"]
Try that.
Q: Trying to install XP style floating dhtml slide down menu but have these problems:
- Menu does not stay within table cell
- Is not floating
A: > - DHTML slide down menu does not stay within table cell
You're using the floating feature now. Your dhtml slide down menu will float withabsolute position only. So, now you have:
var tabsolute=1;
var tleft="1px";
var ttop="1px";
That is why your dhtml slide down menu does not stay within table cell and hasabsolute position.

Q: I have downloaded the trial version of Deluxe Menu and am seriously looking at buyingit. I am trying to go thro the instructions and check out if it meets my requirement.
I am not able to figure out how to equally space out all my menu items on the javascript menu bar.
My menu bar width is fixed at 800 px and I have 7 items - horizontal type. The menuitems widths appear different for the menu items. How do I ensure that all of them are ofequal size ??
A: Set width for the items using Individual styles:
var itemStyles=[["itemWidth=100px"],] //style 0
Assign Individual Styles for the menu Items.
var menuItems = [
["Item 1","", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", "", "", ], //style 0
["Item 2",", "data2.files/icon1.gif", "data2.files/icon1o.gif", "", "", "0", "", "", "", "", ], //style 0
];
