Javascript Menu. DHTML Menu.

  • Submenus drop down over all the objects of the page (select, flash, object, embed, applet). If for some reasons a submenu can't drop down over an object, the latter will be hidden for a time when the submenu is shown.
  • These effects will make your menu more attractive and stylish. You can cast a shadow on the menu and submenus, set transparency. Among available transitional effects there are such as fade, mosaic, random dissolve, slide out and many others.
  • Create individual styles and assign them to any submenu and item. Use individual styles to achieve stunning effects!

Recent Questions

Q: I got the menu to display across frames, but it displays differently in Firefox & Mozillavs. Internet Explorer. Is that to be expected?

In The Mozilla-based browsers, the submenu butts right upunder the main menu – which is how I want it. In IE, it is about 10 pixels below.

Also, I can’t get the submenus to drop down directly under the main menus – they are offset by about 100 pixels to the right.

A: The problem is in a structure of your frameset.
Mozilla browsers can't determine absolute coordinates for a frame, sosubmenus drop down with an offset.

You should create the following frameset structure:

--|------------
   | menu
--|------------
   |
   | submenus
   |

Now a top row has 2 columns and all browsers can determine awidth of the 1st column in the second row.



Q: Suppose if I get the single user license, then I see I wont be able to see the javascript code. If I have to handle events like clicking a tab or hover over a tab, how do I do it for the tab menu javascript?

A: Actually there is no need to change our source code to handle these events.
Actually you can use your own Javascript code instead standard links and html code inside item text. For example:

  var bmenuItems = [
["text", "javascript:your_code_here"]
];

or

  var bmenuitems = [
["<div onClick='urlSubstitution(\'transco/sheet.asp?stype=1\')'>Table of Contents</div>", ""]
];



Q: How can I upgrade to Deluxe Menu v2.0? Now I'm using v1.14.


A: How to upgrade to v2.00
---------------------------------------------------------------
You can download the licensed engine .js files from the same link in your license message.
Deluxe Menu v2.00 has new parameters and features.
To upgrade to v2.00 you should do the following.

Step 1.
    1.1 For Windows users
      a. Run Deluxe Tuner v2.0
      (can be found in the trial menu package v2.0
      http://deluxe-menu.com/deluxe-menu.zip).
      b. Open menu data file (.js file where menu parameters are placed):
select File/Open…
      c. Save the file: select File/Save, then click "No" button when the dialog box appears.

    1.2 For other OS users
      a. Open menu data file (.js file where menu parameters are placed) in a text editor.
      b. Make sure that the following variables exist in the data file:

        var keystrokes = 0;
        var dm_focus = 1;
        var dm_actKey = 113;

        var dynamic = 0;
        var smHideOnClick = 1;
        var itemAlignTop = 'left';
        var smSmartScroll = 1;

        var dmAJAX = 0;
        var dmAJAXCount = 30;
        var dmRTL = 0;
        var dmObjectsCheck = 0;
        var menuBackRepeat = "repeat";
        var menuHeight = "";
        var transDuration2 = 200;

If one of the variables doesn't exist - add it at the beginning of the file.

      c. Save the file.

Step 2. Now open HTML-page that contains Deluxe Menu.

Step 3. Replace existent tags of the menu by the following code:



Step 4. Save HTML-page.

Step 5. New engine v2.00 has 7 .js files.
They are:
      - dmenu.js
      - dmenu4.js
      - dmenu_add.js
      - dmenu_dyn.js
      - dmenu_key.js
      - dmenu_cf.js (new v2.00)
      - dmenu_popup.js (new v2.00)

Replace all old .js files by the files from v2.00.

Try that.


Q: I've finally got it working and it looks good. So thanks. But... unfortunally there's still a small problem wich occured after I got everything else working: No matter if I set the parmeter "  var texpanded" to '1' or '0' it expands by default tree menu javascript. Why?

I also have another question I forgot to ask you about earlier: Originally I only had the data.js file but in the non-profit zip file you gave me there was no "data.js" file, only "data-tree.js". Wich one will the script use? Do I need both? The javascript call I put where I want the menu to appear calls for "DATA. js". So what good does the "data-TREE.js" file do?

I include the "data.js" file if you need to have a look at it. The "data-tree. js" file is identical now that I changed all the "  var tmenuItems" at the bottom). (The "menu.html" I guess you can look at yourself by "View source".)

Also, the submenus where I would like to put XP style menus are not finished yet but for now I have the same "tree" script in them. They are under "DART/dartspel.html", and on six artist discographys under MUSIK: Edguy, Katie Melua, Joe Satriani, Michael Schenker, Trans-Siberian Orchestra and Magnus Uggla. This is if you'ld like to see the sub pages where I use other "copys" of Deluxe-tree. (I hope you don't mind that the "Illegal copyright" nag is very small. It's supposed to dissapear anyway with the new Non-profit license).

A: 1) See the structure of your tmenuItems is incorrect now.

You should write:
["->HEM (Klicka f?r meny)","welcome.html", "data.files/hem.gif", "data.files/hem2.gif", "data.files/hem.gif", "Startsidan", "right", "", ],
Without '|' symbol in the beginning.

2) You should write tleft parameter correctly. Now you have:

//--- Positioning
  var tabsolute=1;
  var tleft="00px";
  var ttop="10px";

Write it in the following way:
  var tleft="10px";

3) data-tree.js file is the default tree menu javascript file. There is no need to use it if you already haveyour data.js file.
