Javascript Menu. DHTML Menu.

  • Create contextual menus for your pages. For this purpose you should assign a special function for the object you want. The current coordinates of the mouse pointer or your own ones can be used for the contextual menu.
  • When the submenu is larger than the visible area of the page the submenu will be automatically decreased. To see all the submenu items you do not need to use scrollbars or something like that - just put your mouse to the bottom of a submenu and it will be automatically scrolled! You can also specify height and width for each separate submenu.
  • Build menus completely based on Cascading Style Sheets. It is possible to appoint the individual CSS styles for separate elements of the menu.

Q: How does an item on the dhtml navigation menus connect to pages?

Does it take the page's name automatically?

If I add a page, will the menu item show the new page?

If I remove a page, will the menu remove the item?

A: > how does an item on the menu connect to pages?
You should create menu items in the Deluxe Tuner and specify link and target for each item, for example:
  var menuItems = [

["Upcoming Trainings","http://domain.org/pub/upcoming-trainings", "", "", "", "_self", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["Conferences & Workshops","upcoming-workshops.html", "", "", "", "_blank", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["Continuing Ed","ceu.html", "", "", "", "main", "", "", "", "", "", ],
];

> does it take the page's name automatically?
> if I add a page, will the menu item show the new page?
> If I remove a page, will the menu remove the item?
No, you should do it manually in Deluxe Tuner (or any text editor).

Q: How can make dhtml tabs to open internet link in the same window?


A: You should set the following paramter in your data.js file (file, created in Deluxe Tuner),
where your tab-menu parameters (vars) and items (  var bmenuItems) are placed.

  var bitemTarget = "_blank";

Default target for all items ("_self","_blank","_parent","_top",...).
If equal to "" - defined as "_self".

Or you can set target parameter in your data file using Deluxe Tuner:
"Tab mode" section in the menu parameters list.




Q: I know I can fix the width of the entire (horizontal) menu. But is there a way to fix the width of each Item in the menu? I would like each Item to be the same width.


A: Please, try to specify units in "px", for example.

  var menuWidth = "600px";

It's necessary to specify exact value for Mozilla browsers. It helpsto position menus correctly.

Try to set individual style for item width:

  var itemStyles = [
["itemWidth=120px"],
];

  var menuItems = [

    ["Text1","", "data.files/products.gif", "data.files/products_mo.gif", "Products", "_self", "0", , , ],
    ["Text2","", "data.files/products.gif", "data.files/products_mo.gif", "Products", "_self", "0", , , ],
    ["Text3","", "data.files/products.gif", "data.files/products_mo.gif", "Products", "_self", "0", , , ],
    ["Text4","", "data.files/products.gif", "data.files/products_mo.gif", "Products", "_self", "0", , , ],
    ["Text5","", "data.files/products.gif", "data.files/products_mo.gif", "Products", "_self", "0", , , ],
