Q: I regret having a problem with my setup, and hope you may be able to put me on the right track. After making a few alterations to my menu, and previewing in FrontPage,
I get a window with an error message "dmObjectsCheck is undefined".


A: This error means that you didn't add some engine file for themenu you need.

Please, try to add all engine files into the folder with your dmenu.jsfile.

You can also send me a copy of your html page (including .js files)and I will check it.


Q: I am having a problem creating a submenu. I did not get any js errors but nothing happens.

What I have found is that even when I have dynamic=1;
I was getting an error saying object expected so I added the dmenu_dyn.js manually (i.e. <scripttype="text/javascript"src="../../Javascript/menu/dmenu_dyn.js"></script>) but now get no errors but no submenu is created.

Do I have to add all the js files in the menu folder manually as I thought it was just
<scripttype="text/javascript"src="../../Javascript/menu/dmenu.js"></script>
that was needed.

All, I am trying to add a submenu under the challenge topmenu.

function addChallengeItems(){

dm_ext_createSubmenu(0, 0, 3, ['Buy Deluxe Menu Now!', "order-deluxe-menu-purchase.html", "", "", "Buy Deluxe Menu Now!", "_blank"]);

}

And then a href that calls addChallengeItems()
<ahref="javascript:addChallengeItems();">add</a>


A: There is no need to add all engine files into your menu folder.
You can add only
dmenu.js
dmenu_dyn.js

More info about Description of Files you can find here:
http://deluxe-menu.com/description-of-files-info.html

Please delete also the following line from your code
<script type="text/javascript"src="../../Javascript/menu/dmenu_dyn.js"></script>

Try that.


Q: How can I vary the width of the individual items (Home, Product Info etc) on the main menu bar?


A: I'm not sure I understand you. You want to use different width (exactwidth) for the main items?

You can use Individual Styles to set the width for the menu items.Please, use Deluxe Tuner to create your individual styles.

You should write for example so:

  var itemStyles = [
["itemWidth=98px"], // style 0
["itemWidth=100px"], // style 1
["itemWidth=110px"], // style 2
["itemWidth=120px"], // style 3
["itemWidth=95px"], // style 4
];
  var menuItems = [

["","", "data.files/products.gif", "data.files/products_mo.gif", "Products", "_self","0" , , , ],
 ["|XLCubed Excel Edition","pro_excel.html", "data.files/iconBlue.gif", "data.files/iconWhite.gif", , "_self", , "0", , ],
 ["|XLCubed Web Edition","pro_web.html", "data.files/iconBlue.gif", "data.files/iconWhite.gif", , "_self", , "0", , ],
 ["|TM1 Connection","tm1Connection.htm", "data.files/iconBlue.gif", "data.files/iconWhite.gif", , "_self", , "0", , ],
 ["|Downloads","downloads.htm", "data.files/iconBlue.gif", "data.files/iconWhite.gif", , , , , , ],
["","", "data.files/demoCenter.gif", "data.files/demoCenter_mo.gif", , ,"1", , , ],


Q: Do the Vista style menus support a separator?
It seems to add some space but the separator line is not drawn.


A: Yes, you can paste a separator in the Vista style menus.

Please, see the following parameters:

//--- Separators
  var separatorImage=""; //for subitems
  var separatorWidth="5";
  var separatorHeight="100%";
  var separatorAlignment="right";
  var separatorVImage="images/public/separator.gif"; //for the top items
  var separatorVWidth="3";
  var separatorVHeight="100%";
  var separatorPadding="";

You should set a separator in the menuItems, for example:

  var menuItems = [
["Home","index.cfm", , , , , , , , ],
["-"],
["About Us","about.cfm", , , , , , , , ],

];
Try that.
