Q: Irene, thank you. I am working on seeing what you did and trying to get it to work on my computer. I keep getting ActiveX blocking errors when open page with the drop down menu source code on my computer. Is this something I can control from within the html code? Or is this something each user is going to have to change setting(s) in their IE Internet Options?
p.s., I had the code on the page twice cuz was just trying to get something... anything.... to work. I deleted the 2nd set which was further down on the page. I'm trying to get the menus to appear in the grey band just below the blue heading section but prior to the white text description section. And, once I get the menus to work, the navigation bar on left will be deleted. Thank you so much for your patience and help!
A: You can get the following message
"To help protect your security in IE ..."
on your local machine only. You won't have such message when you openyour website via Internet.
If you don't want to see this message you should do the followingthings:
Tools/Internet Options/Advanced Options/
and set
"Allow active content from files to run on My Computer".
Close Internet Explorer and open it once again.
There will be no such message any more.
Q: I'm interested in to buy the product of yours: deluxe-menu. But I've got a dude.
I've been working with the trial version, but I haven't been able to put HTML code within the javascript pop menu Item, in order to do actions like opening a new URL, or opening a file or page with .htm extension.
A: Actually you are able to paste any html code within items.
For example:
var menuItems = [
...
["||<nobr><FORM method=GET action='http://www.google.com/custom'><input name='as_q' value='search
the web' size=15 style='font-size:10'> <INPUT type=hidden name=cof
value='LW:144;L:http://domain.edu/images/sulogo.gif;LH:45;AH:center;GL:0;S:http://domain.edu;AWFID:e01cb67b8afe383e;'> </form></nobr>","", "images/icons/search.gif", "", "", "", "", "2", "", "", "",],
["test","testlink.html","",]
["<a href='testlink.html'> test </a>","","",]
Q: Well I figured all of that out but now I have a new problem.The content of the textarea tabs is not displaying in IE.
A: See, it is not correctly to use submenus in tabMode=0.
Now you have:
var bmenuItems = [
["Why Choose Frictionsweb?","content1", "", "", "", "Why choose Frictionsweb Premium Internet Services?", "", "", "", ],
["|Our Services","content2", "", "", "", "We handle your project from the ground up!", "", "", "", ],
];
var bmenuItems = [
["Specials","content3", "", "", "", "Great Deals from Frictionsweb!", "", "", "", ],
["|Our Services","content4", "", "", "", "We handle your project from the ground up!", "", "", "", ],
["-","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
];
Try to write your bmenuItems in the following way:
var bmenuItems = [
["Why Choose Frictionsweb?","content1", "", "", "", "Why choose Frictionsweb Premium Internet Services?", "", "", "", ],
["Our Services","content2", "", "", "", "We handle your project from the ground up!", "", "", "", ],
];
var bmenuItems = [
["Specials","content3", "", "", "", "Great Deals from Frictionsweb!", "", "", "", ],
["Our Services","content4", "", "", "", "We handle your project from the ground up!", "", "", "", ],
["-","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
];
Q: I was trying out the Vista samples and was able to change the sub-item font size but not the cascade menu javascript item(s) font size. Is this by design?
A: You should change font for the main items in the Individual Styles.
var itemStyles = [
["itemWidth=92px","itemBorderWidth=0","fontStyle=normal 11pxTahoma","fontColor=#FFFFFF,#FFFFFF","itemBackImage=data-vista-03.files/btn_magentablack.gif,data-vista-03.files/btn_magenta.gif"],
];
Try that.
