Q: I am using Javascript Menu. Deluxe Menu. v1.12 How can I upgrade to v.2.0?
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/OpenЕ 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:
<noscript><a href="http://deluxe-menu.com">Javascript Menu by Deluxe-Menu.com</a></noscript>
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 want to use this menu with ASP. Can the link items NOT open a new window? For ASP the current window needs to be used with whatever value is in the link parameter.
A:JavaSript menu uses window.open or href-method depending on the target parameter. If you set "" or "_self" target the menu uses href-method and if youset "_blank" or frame name the menu uses window.open and opens your link in a new window.
You should use the following parameter var titemTarget = "_self"; or var titemTarget = "";
Please, see also individual items targets, for example: {|The Team, http://www.domain.co.uk/receptionist.htm, _blank,} Change "_blank" to "" or to "_self".
Q: How do you center the text within the top-level menu cels for the xml drop down menu? There doesn't seem to be a setting for it in the tuner. There's a justification option for the sub-menus, but not for the top.
A: Use the following parameter to specify align for the top items:
var itemAlignTop="center";
Q: If I don't set var tabMode=1 instead of var tabMode=0 in drop menu maker the links will not work at all.
A:See in Deluxe Tabs there are two modes: 1. var tabMode=0; You can create only one level of tabs and assign Object Id's of theDIV's to show when you click on the tab.
You can use Object ID as well as Link in both modes. Use the following prefixes within item's link field: "object:" - means that there is object id after it; "link:" - means that there is a link after it. "javascript:" - means that there is a javascript code after it, for example:javascript:alert(\'Hello!\')
