Q: I am having a problem trying to figure out how to generate a link to javascript popup window.
A: You can show the popup window when you hover, click or mouseout on some elements on yourpage.
For example you've added an image in your html page.
You should specify the ID for it, for example:
<p><img id="open_popup" border="0" src="images/submenu-bg.gif" width="170" height="29"></p>
In the 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 manually. You should specify ID's - id="xxxx" for <a>, <div>, <img> ... tags.
Or you want to open a popup onMouseover, onClick or onMouseout on a link.
So, you should create a link (you can also use other object) on your page and set id="" for it, for example:
<a href="javascript:;" id="link">Open popup OnClick</a>
<a href="javascript:;" id="over">Open popup OnMouseover</a>
<a href="javascript:;" id="out">Open popup OnMouseOut</a>
In Deluxe Tuner you should set:
onMouseOver - over
onMouseOut - out
onClick - link
If you want to show the popup when your page loads you should leave these fields empty:
onMouseOver:"",
onMouseOut:"",
onClick:"",
Q: I've been working with your javascript menu sample and like what I see so far. One issue I have seems to be with the smColumns variable. I'm assuming it was for just the sub menus but in the trial when I change this the entire menu goes into multi- column mode. I exported the project to HTML thinking I could manually change it there, that produced the same result, changed the entire menu to multi-column.
Our menu will be dynamic (populated from SQL Server) with only some of the sub menus being multi-column. We will even have multiple sub menus for certain items and we'll need to have the capability to set which one of those will be displayed in Multi-columns and which ones will not. (See Below) So the question becomes; Is there a way to set the number of columns only for the javascript menu sample subitems we desire to have multi-column and if so how?
A: You should use Individual Styles and set number of javascript menu sample submenu columns foreach submenu individually.
var menuStyles = [
["smColumns=2","smOrientation=undefined"],
];
Q: I want to use java sliding menu Deluxe as a data-entry system. I can see how to use the dynamic facilities to allow the user to create and populate nodes but at the end of the client's work I would like them to hit 'submit' on a form and pass all data they have created to the server for processing. How do I pass the data back to the server in the java sliding menu?
A: You are able to paste any html code within java sliding menu items.
For example:
var tmenuItems = [
...
["<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 have a paid version of the menu, and I was trying to add the functionality of dynamically adding net dhtml menu item
When I added the code I get the following JS error,
menu is undefined in dmenu_dyn.js (line 13)
dm_ext_addItemPos(1, 0, ["Netscape", "testlink.htm", "", 4 more...], -1)dmenu_dyn.js (line 13)
dm_ext_addItem(1, 0, ["Netscape", "testlink.htm", "", 4 more...])dmenu_dyn.js (line 13)
function dm_ext_hideAllSubmenus(mInd){_dmsm(mInd);};function dm_ext_changeItem(m...
I copied the example from your site, just to see if I can use it.
What am I doing wrong?
A: See, we have two menus on the sample's page
http://deluxe-menu.com/dynamic-functions-sample.html
That's why we write menuInd = 1
dm_ext_addItemPos(1, ...
dm_ext_addItemPos(1, 0, ["Netscape", "testlink.htm", "", 4 more...], -1)dmenu_dyn.js (line 13)
dm_ext_addItem(1, 0, ["Netscape", "testlink.htm", "", 4 more...])dmenu_dyn.js (line 13)
But if you have only one menu you should write menuInd = 0
dm_ext_addItemPos(0, ...
dm_ext_addItem(0, ...
