Q: In order to speed up things, (I mean my learning of this program) I am thinking of this:
I have at the moment only one selling e-book on my website.
Could you inform me please what I have to master in this drop down menu generator For managing, let say two affiliates, or more of course.
I know I will have to learn all. But I am sure that for starting and for just one e-book I don’t need to master everything.
I am a newbie, and all at once it is tiring as well as confusing.
And when my e-book is selling I will have time to study the whole thing.
Can you do this please?
A: Unfortunately we don't have step by step tutorial now. We'll try tocreate it in the nearest time.
1. Create your menu in Deluxe Tuner application.
You can create any menu as you like in Deluxe Tuner.
Deluxe Tuner v2.4 supports Deluxe Menu (http://deluxe-menu.com) &Deluxe Tree (http://deluxe-tree.com) & Deluxe Tabs (http://deluxe-tabs.com)
You can use ready to use templates. You can find them in the templateswindow.
When you open Deluxe Tuner ( Deluxe Menu ) you can click "File/New"and add items and subitems using buttons "Add Item" and "Add Subitem" onthe main window.
You should set items and subitems parameters on the "Item Parameters"window.
See also other parameters for the menu on the main window.
More info about menu parameters you can find on our site (you can alsouse local version of the site which you can find in the trial package"Deluxe Menu / deluxe-menu.com /")

2. You should install the menu on your page.
You can click, for example, File/Export to HTML (you can't do it inthe MAC version).
Add several rows into your html page.
<head>
...
<!-- Deluxe Menu -->
<noscript><a href="http://deluxe-menu.com">Javascript Menu by Deluxe-Menu.com</a></noscript>
<script type="text/javascript"> var dmWorkPath="deluxe-menu.files/";</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="deluxe-menu.files/dmenu.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="data-deluxe-menu.js"></script> //data-deluxe-menu.js - data file created in Deluxe Tuner.
...
</head>
<body>
...
<table>
<tr><td><script type="text/javascript" src="deluxe-menu.files/data.js"></script></td></tr>
</table>
...
</body>
You should also copy all engine files
dmenu.js
dmenu4.js
dmenu_add.js
dmenu_dyn.js
dmenu_key.js
dmenu_cf.js
dmenu_popup.js
dmenu_ajax.js
into "deluxe-menu.files/" folder. You should place this folder in thesame folder with your index. html page.
Q: I got the tabs menu to work!
Can you tell me which file(s) I must change to change the content of each tab
Very many thanks for your help.
A: For each tab you can set content <div> (contentName,contentDescription, contentVariations).
var bmenuItems =
[
["Style Name","contentName",,,,,"1"],
["-",,,,,,"0"],
["Style Description","contentDescription"],
["-",,,,,,"0"],
["Style Variations","contentVariations"],
["-",,,,,,"0"],
["Empty",,,,,,"2"],
];
You can find these divs in the tabs-style-glass.html file. You shouldpaste the content of your tabs in these divs.
Q: I am just starting to work with deluxe menu for a site that I am developing. I will soon be going through the purchase of a license but have not yet reached that point.
At the moment though, as I build the framework for the site locally on my computer, I notice that the menu behave a looks differently in IE 6 and Firefox (I am focusing on a CSS base menu). Is this something that will be worked out once I have purchased the licensing key or is there something else that I am missing?
A: Deluxe Menu works fine in all browsers.
Try to set exact width for the menu width and menu height, try to specify unitsin "px":
var menuWidth="500px";
It's necessary to specify exact value for Mozilla browsers. It helpsto position menus correctly.
var menuHeight="20px";
You should also check your padding parameter, you should write it so:
var itemPadding="1px 1px 1px 12px";
You can also send us a copy of your html page (including .js files) ora direct link to your website, so we can check it.
Q: Hi, I have recently purchased delux menu from your website.
I have bought it because I build websites, and some of them in thai language.
But I don’t think down menu java script support Thai. Is that correct?
A: You should create the menu in Thai language in the same way as you use this language on your page.
You cannot enter Thai characters in Deluxe Tuner. You should add these characters manually in any text editor.
You should set
<meta http-equiv=content-type content="text/html; charset=windows-874">
on your html page.
