Q: we want to be able to specify a certain height (or number of items) for the main menu after which a new column is created.
A: Unfortunately it is not possible to specify a number of items after which a new column is created.
But you can use blank items and create Individual Style for theseitems.
For example:
["| ","", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ], //empty item
["|Item 42","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["| ","", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ], //empty item
["|Item 44","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
Q: I have configured the Deluxe Tabs menu for the purpose that this menu will form the basis of a website's navigation, once clicked a tab it will take you to the appropriate page.
However one problem I have faced is that menu, regardless of current webpage will display the same active/ selected menu item, having looked in the menu parameters I know that the following set the positions of the selected tab :
* var bselectedItem=0;
* var bselectedSmItem=0;
Is there anyway of selecting the dhtml tab menu index location according to what webpage you are on? On your website it shows an example of a PHP server-side script, however is there an example of this in ASP ?
A: No, unfortunately we don't have such examples in ASP.
Deluxe Tabs doesn't support API functions which can return theselected tab also.
You can set "bselectedItem" and " var bselectedSmItem" parametersbased on your link before you call your data file.
For example, move " var bselectedItem" and " var bselectedSmItem" parametersfrom your data file to your code.
<TD vAlign=top align=left>
/* Select Tab */
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript1.2">
var bselectedItem=<?php echo $seltabs; ?>;
var bselectedSmItem=<?php echo $selsmtabs; ?>;
</script>
<SCRIPT src="data.js" type=text/javascript></SCRIPT>
</TD>
You should define seltabs and selsmtabs using server side script.
You can also set it on every page before you call data.js file, forexample:
<TD vAlign=top align=left>
/* Select Tab */
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript1.2">
var bselectedItem=4;
var bselectedSmItem=3;
</script>
<SCRIPT src="data.js" type=text/javascript></SCRIPT>
</TD>
Q: Thnx, it works now, just one more question :-)
I use frames on my website, the target frame name is main.
But when i put main as target in the simple javascript drop down menu, it loads as a new windows, do you know what i'm doing wrong?
A: You can set target parameter for all items:
var itemTarget="main";
Where main - is the name of the frame where you want to open the link.
or for each item individually:
["Home","testlink.html", "", "", "", "main", "", "", "", "", "", ],

I uninstalled, cleared all cache and temporary files, restarted the computer, reinstalled and I still get the same message.
I am convinced this program is exactly what I need, but one step at a time.
A: I suppose that you're using Windows 2000.
We have some problems with Tuner on this OS.
Unfortunately we didn't fix the issue with Windows 2000 yet.
Try to delete all content from toolbar.html file.
