Recent Questions

Q: How can I manage that the last clicked javascript expanding tree item stays tree highlighted?

A: We have the following API function to highlight the pressed item in Deluxe Tree
function dtreet_ext_setPressedItem (menuInd, itemID)

But unfortunately this function doesn't work for AJAX submenus.

We'll try to add this feature soon (using save state feature).


Q: Your product is great. I do have one question for you however.

Right now the dropdown (subitem) menus appear based on the smShowPause variable, and disappear based on the smHidePause variable. It is sometimes awkward for users to mouse off the subitem menu that has dropped down, only to have it still hanging there. Reducing the smHidePause variable is not an option because then the menu often disappears before a user has selected a menu option.

The ideal solution is the have the subitem menu recognize when the user has moused off the menu, and then disappear. Is this possible?
if not, I definitely suggest incorporating it into your next build!


A: Try to set these parameters:

  var transition=0;
  var transOptions="";
  var transDuration=0;
  var transDuration2=0;

  var smShowPause=200;
  var smHidePause=200;


Q: Is there a way to programmatical select an item in the scrolling menu without the user actual click on the item?

A: You can set a pressed item using Javascript API:

function dm_ext_setPressedItem (menuInd, submenuInd, itemInd, recursion)

Sets a current pressed item.
menuInd - index of a menu on a page, >= 0.
submenuInd - index of a submenu, >= 0.
itemInd - index of an item, >=0.
recursion = true/false - highlight parent items.

But notice, to use dm_ext_setPressedItem() you should know ID of selected item and subitem.
You can't get this ID after you reload your page. That is why you should write your own code on PHP.




Q: > You should call the following function:
> dtreet_ext_getItemIDByIndex (0, 12)
> where 12 - is index of the item.

How would I know that 12 is the index of the item? How is itemInd different from its itemID? I assume the menuInd is always 0 for the first menu (or only in my case) menu on a page?


A: Yes, menuInd is the number of the menu on your page (in your casemenuInd=0).

itemInd is the number of the item in your menuItems, for example:

  var tmenuItems =
[
["Home", "http://deluxe-tree.com", "icon1_t.gif", "icon1_to.gif","", "Home Page Tip","_blank"],//itemInd=0

["<img src='data_files/images/sep.gif' width=113 height=1>"],//itemInd=1

["+What's New<br><span id='letter'>This is pretty cool. I need to buy this deluxe menu</span>", "", "icon2_t.gif", "icon2_to.gif", "", "Product Info Tip"],//itemInd=2
