Q: Hi, I need to know if it is possible to accomplish the following functionalities with your tree-menu library.
1. I need to have two or more trees in the same page 2. I need to have a checkBox in each node and through a JavaScript function be able to add the selected nodes into another tree. 3. I need to eliminate the nodes that has check=true 4. I need to populate on-demand the tree using AJAX 5. I need to implement drag&drop through the use of the mouse events on the tree nodes 6. How would the tree behave with 10000 nodes?? 7. I need to have a tree within another element that uses scroll such as a DIV or SPAN (fixed area). When collapsed or expanded, the area should remain its original size.
A: 1. You can add any number of the menus on the one page. 2, 3, 5. Yes, you can do it. But you should create your own server-side script (for example, php) that will do it. The menu doesn't support such a feature. 4. Unfortunately, you can't use the AJAX-like technology in the Deluxe Tree such as in Deluxe Menu. 6. It is possible that the loading speed can be lower if the menu is very large. But it doesn't take so much time. Yes, you can notice some delay in IE, but in over browsers it works better. Deluxe Tree works fast, but 10000 is a large value. Please, try atrial version of Deluxe Tree. I tried to create large menus on my machine: P4 3GHz, 512RAM WinXP SP2 It takes: - 1000 items ~ 10 sec - 2000 items ~ 40 sec 7. You can paste Deluxe Tree into the <table> or <div>.
Q: Sometime the first tab in css tab menu stay selected etc..
A:You should check the following parameter
var bselectedItem=1; This parameter sets the selected tab.
You can set it var bselectedItem=-2;
Q: Can I use drop down navigation menu using subfolders? I am trying to build amenu system but the website contains a lot of subfolders.
A: Yes, you can use deluxe-menu on the site with a lot of subfolders.
You can use additional parameters to make menu paths absolute:
var pathPrefix_img = "http://domain.com/images/"; var pathPrefix_link = "http://domain.com/pages/"; These parameters allow to make images and links paths absolute. For example:
var pathPrefix_img = "http://domain.com/images/"; var pathPrefix_link = "http://domain.com/pages/";
var menuItems = [ ["text", "index.html", "icon1.gif", "icon2.gif"], ];
So, link path will be look so: http://domain.com/pages/index.html
Images paths will be look so: http://domain.com/images/icon1.gif http://domain.com/images/icon2.gif
Please, try to use these parameters.
