  • Submenus drop down over all the objects of the page (select, flash, object, embed, applet). If for some reasons a submenu can't drop down over an object, the latter will be hidden for a time when the submenu is shown.
  • These effects will make your menu more attractive and stylish. You can cast a shadow on the menu and submenus, set transparency. Among available transitional effects there are such as fade, mosaic, random dissolve, slide out and many others.
  • Create individual styles and assign them to any submenu and item. Use individual styles to achieve stunning effects!

Q: I have set up a menu that uses one 'data.js' file.
However, on ONE page, the menu needs to have three additional items, with a different style.
Is there a way to add the three items with a different style via javascript on that one page?
I think I know how to handle the styles, but I'm unsure how to add the three new items without using two differerent 'data.js' files- which is how I have it set up for the time being. You may want to visit the site to see what I mean.


A: You can use dm_ext_addItem() function to add items.

Please, see how you should write this function:
function dm_ext_addItem (menuInd, submenuInd, iParams)

< SCRIPT src="Welcome to Catawba Animal Clinic, P_A_files/data.js" type=text/javascript> </SCRIPT>
<script type="text/javascript"> dm_ext_addItem(0, 0, ["Boarding Request Form","request.htm", , , , "_self", "0", "-1", , ]);</script>

<script type="text/javascript"> dm_ext_addItem(0, 0, ["Express Checkout Info","", , , , , "0", , , ]);</script>

Q: I'm experimenting with the purchased Treemenu. Looks very nice!

A question: When I set the menu width to 200px and the text of the item exceeds this width, text is not wrapped resulting in some strange display. How can I wrap the text in the java menu tree?

I can not simply use extra <br> tags because the data of the items are dynamic (php + MySQL).


A: You should set the following parameter

  var tnoWrap=0;

Try that.


Q: Greetings..... I am new to java script and would like to have a drop down menu that I can use with frames....
I downloaded your program and have created a small menu to try to become familiar with the program and see if I can accomplish getting a menu to display on a new page...... I am currently using Page Mill.

When I created the menus, I saved them as TstBuy and it was saved in the Deluxe-menu folder.

Having read a number of your information displays plus lacking the knowledge of what files and where to place them, I would appreciate any information you can offer as to what files to place in the main Page Mill folder if that is where they go??

As for the data I created (TstBuy), I thought that I would be able to copy and paste that file into the Page Mill page within a text box, but the paste feature was not available...

Thanks for any assistance you can offer..


A: Thanks for your interest in our products.
Deluxe Menu wasn't developed as Page Mill/Dreamweaver/Frontpage extension,BUT you can use it as standard Javascript files.

You can try to export your menu into html page using Deluxe Tunerapplication and then copy the code from the generated html page into your html page.You should click in Deluxe Tuner "File/Export/To HTML". You'll getsuch files:

deluxe-menu.files/
     image_files.gif
     dmenu.js
     dmenu4.js
     dmenu_add.js
     dmenu_dyn.js
     dmenu_key.js
     dmenu_cf.js
     dmenu_popup.js
     dmenu_ajax.js
data-deluxe-menu.js
deluxe-menu.html

There is no need to use all files from the "deluxe-menu.files/"folder.
The description of files you can find here:

http://deluxe-menu.com/description-of-files-info.html

You can delete all files which are not necessary for you.

To install the menu into your html page:

1. open the page in Page Mill/Dreamweaver/Frontpage
2. open html source code of the page (deluxe-menu.html)
3. add several rows of code (<script> tags), For info see:
http://deluxe-menu.com/installation-info.html

You should also copy "deluxe-menu.files/" folder, all image files anddata-deluxe-menu.js in the same folder with your html page.

For example, you'll have such structure:

deluxe-menu.files/
     image_files.gif
     dmenu.js
     dmenu_add.js
data-deluxe-menu.js
your_html_page_from_Page_Mill.html

That's all.
