Q: I'm confused in how to do this. I want to change the background color of one of the javascript and menu items. If I understand correctly I go to INDIVIDUAL STYLES and should be able to change the background color for one of the menu items there. Under item appearance I tried to change itemBackColor - but I can't seem to make it take affect (I tried clicking OK but its under the Style Names, so thats probably not it.
A: You should click "Edit Individual Styles" button.
On the 'Item Styles' tab click "Add style" button.
Set itemBackColor and click "OK" button.
Select the item you want to change the style for and assign new style for it. Go to Item Parameters window 'Item style' field.
var itemStyles = [
["itemBackColor=#EB2999,#590937"], //style0
];
var menuItems = [
["Home","testlink.html", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["Product Info","", "default.files/icon1.gif", "default.files/icon1o.gif", "", "", "0", "", "", "", "", ], //style0
Q: I want to run a javascript function when a user clicks on item in the dhtml pop up menu,
How can I do this in the data file?
A: You can use your own Javascript code instead standard links. For example:
var menuItems = [
["text", "javascript:your_code_here"]
];
Q: I'm trying created an independent menu from my html pages.
I have several pages stored in directories and subdirectories,
I would like to call theses pages from a single dhtml menu script.
A: 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.
Q: If you look at our site in IE (PC) the deluxemenu looks great justified left w/ our logo justified right. When you look at it in Safari (Mac) the dhtml menu dropdown is stretched across the entire width of the page and our logo is no longer in view (yuk!).
A: Try to set exact width for the menu in 'px':
var menuWidth="300px";
