Q: I'm trying out the cross-browser (top to bottom) drop down menu and I was wondering if it was possible to have the top bar (the main items) use a background image while the sub-items beneath used a plain background color and no image?
So far I've gotten them to either both use a background image, or both use a background color. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. :)
A: Actually you can create any menu you like with Deluxe Menu.
You can use Individual Styles to set background image for the items
var itemStyles = [
["itemWidth=92px","itemBackImage=deluxe-menu.files/btn_black.gif,deluxe-menu.files/btn_black_blue.gif"],
];
oryou can use images instead of icons (you should delete item's text).
["","", "deluxe-menu.files/btn_black.gif", "deluxe-menu.files/btn_black_green.gif", "", "", "", "", "", ],
Q: I tried the following for subitem and it worked but not working with the "Title item" (Group or header item), is there a way to process onclick for the title item? Thanks again.
You're able to use Javascript for each item, for example:
var tmenuitems = [
["item text", "javascript:your_code_here"]
];
A: Unfortunately, title items doesn't allow to use Javascript in the sameway.
But you can do the following:
var tmenuitems = [
["<div onclick='your_code_here'>title text</div>"]
];
Q: I want frameless popup window to appear when an image is clicked,
but at the moment it appears automatically on page load..
A: You can specify the ID of the element you want to click on.
Actions sections in Deluxe Tuner, onClick parameter.
1) You can show the popup window when you hover, click or mouseout on some elements on yourpage.
For example you have:
<p><img border="0" src="images/submenu-bg.gif" width="170" height="29" id="open_popup"></p>
So, in Deluxe Tuner you should enter 'open_popup' object ID in the onMouseOver,onClick or onMouseOut fields.
Actually you can assign id to any object on your page:
add id="open_popup" for <a>, <div>, <img> ... tags.
2) You can also use deluxePopupWindow.open() function to open the popups.
More info about deluxePopupWindow.open() function you can find:
http://deluxepopupwindow.com/window-installation-info.html
function deluxePopupWindow.open("winID", "content", "header", "param", "skin", "contentType")
Use another winID (first parameter) than you have in your data file if you don't want to close 1-st popup window
or use thesame winID=win if you want to close 1-st popup.
content - will be the path to the file you want to load in your popup (files/test.html)
skin - is the name of your skin
contentType - set this parameter to iframe.
Q: I like your product and we would like to use it for our web-site.
Our site uses Frames with the following names in the FrameSet:
frame name = “top”
frame name = “middle”
frame name = “bottom”
I don’t understand how to set the target of the Deluxe Tuner navigational link to populate the frame “middle” or “bottom”
When I try to input my own name it will not allow me to do so.
We are using the “top” (horizontal) frame as a header which will contain the navigational component we developed using your product.
We are using the “middle” frame to contain most of the html pages the user will load
We are using the “bottom” frame to contain auxiliary text
Can you help me?
A: More info about the installation of the menu in cross-frame mode youcan find here
http://deluxe-menu.com/cross-frame-mode-sample.html
You should replace dm_init() function with dm_initFrame() function.
Please, open your data.js file with the menu parameters in any texteditor and change it.
You should write, for example so:
dm_initFrame("frmSet", 1, 2, 0);
