Javascript Menu. DHTML Menu.

  • Use a mouse to move a menu as a usual window. Also you can create the menu where each submenu can be "separated" from the menu (MS Office toolbar-like mode).
  • When the page is scrolled the menu remains visible. The menu can "float" along one or two coordinate axes.
  • There can be multilevel menus - create as many rows of the menu as necessary. Any submenu in its turn can include different number of columns.

Q: I've spent the last 30 minutes or so looking for samples on how to create a simple pop up window. I downloaded the trial, put in the html, saved the js file, etc etc. But there is no sample so I can't see exactly how to do the html.

Like, in the tuner it says to enter the ID of the link. What is this? where do I put the onClick code? where can I find the onClick code? There is a lot of info missing here.

Please send a simple template so I can see how a popup is done. Not a menu, just a popup.

A: > But there is no sample so I can't see exactly how to do the html.
You should create the pop up window in Deluxe Tuner and export it in the HTML page "File/Export/To HTML".

See more info about installation here:

http://deluxepopupwindow.com/window-installation-info.html

> where can I find the onClick code?
See you can show the popup window when you hover, click or mouseout on some elements on yourpage. For example you've added an image in your html page. You should specify the ID for it, for example:

<p><img id="open_popup" border="0" src="images/submenu-bg.gif" width="170" height="29"></p>

So, in the Deluxe Tuner you should enter 'open_popup' object ID in the onMouseOver,onClick or onMouseOut fields.

Actually you can assign id to any object on your page manually. You should specify ID's - id="xxxx"for <a>, <div>, <img> ... tags.

If you want to show the popup when your page loads you should leave these fields empty:
onMouseOver:"",
onMouseOut:"",
onClick:"",


Q: I was wondering if you could help me. I have recently done a site and put a menu into the site

The basic javascript menu is on the top of the screen but it has lines through each of the menus just after the words and before the arrow on each of them. I have stretched the menu out to cover the whole of the top of the page but i need to get these lines out of the menu.

Can you please help me with this problem?

A: See images in Vista Templates have the fixed width and height (92 x 21):
  var itemStyles = [
["itemWidth=92px","itemHeight=21px","itemBackColor=transparent,transparent","itemBorderWidth=0","fontStyle=normal 11pxTahoma","fontColor=#3A3A3A,#000000","itemBackImage=data-vista-2-04.files/btn_olive.gif,data-vista-2-04.files/btn_white.gif"],
];

When items text is too long you can have such effect.

You can try to use combined background for your items, for example:

  var beforeItemImage = [,]; //left-side image for normal and mouse over state
  var itemBackImage = [,]; //background or image for normal and mouse over state
  var afterItemImage = [,]; //right-side image for normal and mouse over state
  var beforeItemImageW = '';
  var afterItemImageW = '';
  var beforeItemImageH = '';
  var afterItemImageH ='';

But you should create a small images in any Graph Editor, for example:
button_n_back.gif
button_n_left.gif
button_n_right.gif
button_o_back.gif
button_o_left.gif
button_o_right.gif


Q: If I have a Menu and Tab control on the same page, how do I get the menu pop up to have a higher z-index so it displays on top on the tabs?

I want the main menu to display above the Label/Candle tab control.

A: Deluxe Tabs has z-index = 2000
Deluxe Menu has z-index = 1000

You can open dmenu.js file in any text editor and find the following code:

dmZOrder=1000

Change it to

dmZOrder=2050



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";
