Q: We do need the menuitem separation bars as most of the menuitems are quit lengthy, and there needs to be a separation bar to distinguish between them.
A: If you want to add separators between items you can paste a separatorbetween items or you can set item's border width in the following way:
var itemBorderWidth="0 0 1 0";
But you cannot enter this value in Deluxe Tuner you should set thisparameter manually.
You can also create style for the last item with border width = 0:
var itemStyles = [
["itemBorderWidth=0"],
];
To add separators, please, see the following parameters:
//--- Separators
var separatorImage=""; //for subitems
var separatorWidth="5";
var separatorHeight="100%";
var separatorAlignment="right";
var separatorVImage="images/public/separator.gif"; //for the top items
var separatorVWidth="1";
var separatorVHeight="100%";
var separatorPadding="";
You should set a separator in the menuItems, for example:
var menuItems = [
["Home","index.cfm", , , , , , , , ],
["-"],
["About Us","about.cfm", , , , , , , , ],
];
Q: I used the drop menu creator to create a simple tab example, and I created a simple HTML file to display the tabs. It initially appears fine when the page first displays (e.g., the correct div is hidden), but when I *first* click on a tab I always get a javascript error deep in the .js code. Then I click around a bit between the tabs and get some display problems (no more javascript errors though), until finally the show/hide logic recovers and all looks ok.
The error I initially get is something like “tabs[…].id is not an object”. I have the IE7 debugger turned on, otherwise I might not ever see this error.
FYI, I tried your example menus on your web site and everything is fine! Maybe the .js files on your web site are not the same as those created by the generator?
A: You should set the following parameter in drop menu creator:
var bselectedSmItem=0;
