Q: I'd like to buy a template for creating a basic java script vertical menu that is image based. Can you tell me which of your products I should consider buying? I'm familiar with html, but not other programming languages.

A: If you want to create java script vertical menu you should buy Deluxe Menu,

http://deluxe-menu.com

See the example here:

http://deluxe-menu.com/image-based-menu-sample.html

You can also use your own images for the menu items.
If item text is empty, icon fields will be used as item images.
For example:
["", "index.html", "itemImageNormal.gif", "itemImageOver.gif", "Home Page"]

Please, try the trial version at first. It has full functionality.



Q: I found the problem with de Deluxe Menus:
When the menu is inside the <DIV> </DIV> tags, the menu is shown, but does not scroll.


A: See, you use absolute position for this <div>

<div STYLE="position:absolute;top:151px; left:0px">

But you can use absolute position for the menu. Your menu will scrollin this case.

For example, you should set:

  var absolutePos=1;
  var posX="0";
  var posY="151px";

And install your menu

<div>

<script type="text/javascript" src="data.js"></script>

</div>

Or, write:

<noscript><a href="http://deluxe-menu.com">Javascript Menu by Deluxe-Menu.com</a></noscript>
<script type="text/javascript">  var dmWorkPath = "/";</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="dmenu.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="data.js"></script>


Q: I am trying to use Delux-menu for our project, I am not able to use dynamic features of drop down menu script. I will send the html file, where I am calling the java script.

I am getting the error dm_menu[mInd] has no properties.

A: You have one menu in your example, but you write:

function hide(vis) {
dm_ext_changeItemVisibility(1, 0, 2, vis);

That is mean that you want to hide item in the second drop down menu script.

You should write:

function hide(vis) {
dm_ext_changeItemVisibility(0, 0, 2, vis);



Q: The secondary javascript menu style sub menu under Aircraft doesn't line up the same as in Tuner..

A: Deluxe Menu doesn't work correctly (incorrect submenu position) if youhave complex frame structure.

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

You should create, for example, the following frameset structure:

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

Now a second row has 3 columns and all browsers can determine a width of the 1st column in the second row.
