Javascript Menu. DHTML Menu.

  • There can be multi level menus - create as many rows or columns of the menu as you want.
  • Use a mouse to drag a menu as a usual window. Also you can construct the menu where each submenu can be "detached" from the main menu (MSOfficeToolbarLike mode).
  • When the page is scrolled the menu remains visible. The DHTML menu can "float" along one or two coordinate axes.

Recent Questions

Q: What command that I use the HTML code that will be showing in the pop up window to close it?

A: Try to use the following functions to show and hide popup window:

deluxePopupWindow.open()
hide()

For example you should write:

["","javascript:deluxePopupWindow.make('window', 'http://google.com/', '#1: Google Web site',
'width=590,height=350,resizable,scrollbars,minimizable,fullscreen, centerscreen,move-effect=top,,opacity=1,
floatable=yes', 'default')","icon.gif"]
["","javascript:document.getElementById('window').hide();","icon.gif"]

Notice also that you should move the following code from your data file on your html page directly inside SCRIPT tags:

<script type="text/javascript">
menuItems[
[...]
];
dm_init();
</script>

Q: The drop-down submenus are now going "up" instead of "down" in the drop down menus in javascript.

A: Set the following parameter:

  var subMenuVAlign="top";


Q: Can a menu item that expands the submenu items when selected also work as a link?

A: Actually you cannot use links for the top items in the XP Style.

But you can write:

["<a href='index.html' class='home'>Home</a>","", "", "", "", "Return to Index page", "", "0", "", ],
["<a href='http://www.domain.uk' class='home'>About Us</a>","", "", "", "", "", "", "0", "", ],
 ["|Introduction","http://www.domain.uk/introduction.htm", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],

And create styles
.home{
color: #FFFFFF;}
.home:hover{
color: #FFBEBE;}

But in that case the submenu and link open when you press "About Us" item. I think that it is not verygood behaviour. You can also try to specify target parameter

["<a href='index.html' class='home'>Home</a>","", "", "", "", "Return to Index page", "", "0", "", ],
["<a href='http://www.domain.uk' class='home' target="_blank">About Us</a>","", "", "", "", "", "", "0", "", ],
 ["|Introduction","http://www.domain.uk/introduction.htm", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],



Q: I’d like to know how to populate the navigation bar menu from a database?


A: Please, see the example of .php file.The content of .php file depends on your database structure.

<?php

// The example for PHP/MySQL.
// MySQL database has the table "menuTable" that contains data for menu items.
// The table has the following fields:
// 1. "text" - item text
// 2. "link" - item link
// 3. "icon1" - item icon (normal state)
// 4. "icon2" - item icon (mouseover state)
function getMenuItems()
{
$jsItems = '';

// Select all records from table "menuTable"
$allItems = mysql_query('SELECT * FROM menuTable;');

// Extract items data from database and build Javascript code for menuItems
while ($itemData=mysql_fetch_array($allItems))
{
$jsItems .= '["'.$itemData['text'].'", "'.$itemData['link'].'", "'.$itemData['icon1'].'", "'.$itemData['icon2'].'"],';
}

// Return Javascript code
return $jsItems;
}


?>

<script>
  var menuParam1 = value1;
  var menuParam2 = value2;
  var menuParam2 = value2;
...

  var menuItems = [

// Write Javascript code for menu items
echo getMenuItems();

?>

];
</script>
