Q: I was using the trial version with no problems. However, once I upgraded to the full version as above, I am having problems getting my DHTML menus to work properly. I'm using xp pro with ie7. As I said before, I had no problems with the trial version.
Whenever I click on a menu java tab now, ie7 displays an error message in the corner. When clicked it reads:
Line: 18
Char: 16940
Error: 'tabs[...]id' is null or not an object
Code: 0
I am using the 'Microsoft Like Style' tabs template in your DHTML tuner software. I get no errors when the tabs are not linked to hidden <div> tags. However, when they are linked to display the hidden <div> tags I get the error. But they do still display the correct hidden <div> tags after 2 or 3 clicks.
A: Try to set the following menu java parameter:
var bselectedSmItem=0;
Q: I have set up a menu that uses one 'data.js' file.
However, on ONE page, the menu needs to have three additional items, with a different style.
Is there a way to add the three items with a different style via javascript on that one page?
I think I know how to handle the styles, but I'm unsure how to add the three new items without using two differerent 'data.js' files- which is how I have it set up for the time being. You may want to visit the site to see what I mean.
A: You can use dm_ext_addItem() function to add items.
Please, see how you should write this function:
function dm_ext_addItem (menuInd, submenuInd, iParams)
< SCRIPT src="Welcome to Catawba Animal Clinic, P_A_files/data.js" type=text/javascript> </SCRIPT>
<script type="text/javascript"> dm_ext_addItem(0, 0, ["Boarding Request Form","request.htm", , , , "_self", "0", "-1", , ]);</script>
<script type="text/javascript"> dm_ext_addItem(0, 0, ["Boarding Policies","", , , , , "0", , , ]);</script>
<script type="text/javascript"> dm_ext_addItem(0, 0, ["Express Checkout Info","", , , , , "0", , , ]);</script>
You should upload dmenu_dyn.js file on your server.
In your data.js file you should add need Individual Item Styles.
Q: I'm interested in using Deluxe menu for our website. It appearseverything is exactly what I want, but I do have one question.
Can I pass a selection from cascading navigation bar to a form?
A: Deluxe Menus doesn't have such a feature now.
But 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='searchthe 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", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "",],
You should write your own code within menuItem.
Q: I will probably purchase your developer version mostly because I want access to the 600 icons....
1) Do you offer access to these icons with any other license for css drop down menu?
2) I develop sites for several clients, what is involved for them to make small changes to their menus... i.e. add or delete a menu item or sub-item... Will they need to purchase a license to make changes?
3) Does the developer version access your site at runtime? I do not have a problem registering my client sites and getting a key... I just want to make sure at runtime their site does not contact yours.
A: 1) Icon collection is available in Developer licenses only.
2) No, there is no need to purchase the license in that case.
3) No, script doesn't access our site at runtime.
Developer version of the script doesn't check reg. keys at all.
With the Developer license you can use the menu on an unlimited number of Internet or Intranet sites and on the local machines.
This version of the css drop down menu doesn't check keys and it isn't bound to a domain name,so it can be used with an application that doesn't have a fixed domain name.
