Q: Is there a instruction manual on how to use all the features of javascript for dropdown menu? The "help" screen does not give detailed instructions of all the Parameters, Appearance, Individual Style features, Item Parameters, etc. etc.
A: Actually you can find all info about the menu parameters and featureson our website:
- menu parameter and items, Individual Styles:

Q: We have a problem with the submenus going cross-frame.
Whenever there is a webpage from another website in the content/target-frame the frameset twists and all the pages are shown in the topframe. A lot of the information on our web is in office word-files and when they are opened in the content/target-frame the same cross-frame-problem happens. Is it only possible for the sub-menus to go cross-frame when one of our own webpages is shown in the target-frame?
A: See more info about cross-frame mode here:
http://deluxe-menu.com/cross-frame-mode-sample.html
Notice, the menu will work correctly in the cross-frame mode if you load pages into the sub frame from the same domain.
If you load pages from another domain submenus won't be shown in the subframe - they will be shown in the frame with the top-menu.
It's caused by a security policy of browsers - a script can't modify a content of pages from another domain.
Q: I am using the GUI, and have read in your literature that you can put the HTML table in the text area of the javascript select menu item.
However, when I do this nothing displays. Can you please let me know where I a supposed to put the HTML info into the gui. I just want this to be able to show when I click the tab.
A: You should paste your content in the <div> .. </div> tags.
<div id="content1" style=" visibility: hidden;" class="tabPage">
<br><br><br>
<p align=center><img src="img/logo_DM.gif" width=262 height=56 alt="Deluxe-Menu.com"></p>
</div>
<div id="content2" style="visibility: hidden;" class="tabPage">
<br><br><br>
<p align=center><img src="img/logo_DT.gif" width=262 height=56 alt="Deluxe-Tree.com"></p>
</div>
<div id="content3" style=" visibility: hidden;" class="tabPage">
<br><br><br>
<p align=center><img src="img/logo_DTabs.gif" width=254 height=58 alt="Deluxe-Tabs.com"></p>
</div>
See in Deluxe Tabs there are two modes:
1. var tabMode=0;
You can create only one level of tabs and assign Object Id's of theDIV's to show when you click on the tab.
["XP Tab 1","content1", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["XP Tab 2","content2", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["XP Tab 3","content3", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["XP Tab 4","content4", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
2. var tabMode=1;
You can assign only links in this mode.
You should create top level items with subitems.
["XP Tab 1","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["|Link 1_1","http://deluxe-tabs.com", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["|Link 1_2","testlink.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["|Link 1_3","testlink.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["|Link 1_4","testlink.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["|Link 1_5","testlink.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["XP Tab 2","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["|Link 2_1","testlink.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["|Link 2_2","testlink.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["|Link 2_3","testlink.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["|Link 2_4","testlink.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["|Link 2_5","testlink.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["XP Tab 3","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["|Link 3_1","testlink.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["|Link 3_2","testlink.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["|Link 3_3","testlink.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["|Link 3_4","testlink.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["|Link 3_5","testlink.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
You can use Object ID as well as Link in both modes. Use the following prefixes within item's link field:
"object:" - means that there is object id after it;
"link:" - means that there is a link after it.
"javascript:" - means that there is a javascript code after it, for example:javascript:alert(\'Hello!\')
So, you should write for example:
["|Link 1_1","object:Content1_1", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
Q: Images don't appear in my menu.
A: Now you have two lines:
<SCRIPT type=text/javascript> var dmWorkPath = "../misyssbm.files/";</SCRIPT>
and
<SCRIPT type=text/javascript> var dmWorkPath = "../side_menu.files/";</SCRIPT>
But you should have only one line.
Please, check it.
