Q: But where on javascript drop down menu creator I can set the dmsearch=2 ? I can't find it, there isn't an option or submenu for the search box on the left side of deluxe tuner.

A: Use last version of javascript drop down menu creator v3.2.

You can find

  var dmSearch=2;

parameter in the "Advanced" section of parameter's list.

Then you should select an item (where you want to add search box), forexample first item and add

search:value='search...' style='border:1px;width:60px;height:14;font-size:10px;'

code into the "Link" field directly ("Item Parameters" window).



Q: I've noticed something strange in the Deluxe Tree and I am wondering if this is normal.

Here's an example I have in my "data.js" file to populate the javascript ajax tree:

  var tmenuItems = [

["Mes alertes/My alerts","", "", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
 ["|Francais","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "js/AjaxTreeFr.js", ],
 ["|English","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "js/AjaxTreeEn.js", ],
];

Here's basically how it goes:

- Basically the "0" represents a pre-built style that I have set for the root of my tree.

- Under this are the first child of the root called "Francais" and "English" which I link with a JS file to populate (Because the users will customize the alerts they want to see).

This works perfectly fine. But it is a workaround. Let me explain what I wanted in the first place:

  var tmenuItems = [
["Mes alertes ","", "", "", "", "", "", "0", "", " js/AjaxTreeFr.js ", ],
["My alerts","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "js/AjaxTreeEn.js", ],
];

Basically I wanted to have 1 javascript ajax tree with 2 root items "Mes alertes" and "My alerts" but it seems impossible to attach a js file to the root of the tree view. (It doesn't get populated).

Any ideas?

A: See AJAX feature won't work for first-level in XP style now.

It works if you use:
  var tXPStyle=0;


Q: However when recreating the menus after deleting all trace of the trial version and loading on the licensed version I have developed problems.

When I create menus and test using expression web on explorer it works well but when published to web the dropdown menu appear but cannot be clicked on to be diverted to the relevant links. Also since loading the licensed version when using the test browser in expression web firefox a message appears as follows     “firefox dosen’t know how to open this address, because the protocol (c) isn’t associated with any program”.

Please advise I have loaded the licence in the correct way I’m sure.


A: You cannot use local paths on your website. They won't work.

["Home","", "", "", "", "", "0", "0", "", ],
 ["|Localmag Homepage","C:/Documents and Settings/ME/My Documents/localmagwebsite/index.htm", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
 ["|Medway Homepage","C:/Documents and Settings/ME/My Documents/localmagwebsite/medwaytowns/medwayhomepage.html", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["Charity","", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
 ["|childrens","C:/Documents and Settings/ME/My Documents/localmagwebsite/medwaytowns/charities/childrenscharities/childrens_charity_home_page.htm", "", "", "", "", "","", "", ],
 ["|medical","C:/Documents and Settings/ME/My Documents/localmagwebsite/medwaytowns/charities/medicalcharities/medical_charity_home_page.htm", "", "", "", "", "", "","", ],
 ["|religious","C:/Documents and Settings/ME/My Documents/localmagwebsite/medwaytowns/charities/religiouscharities/religious_charity_home_page.htm", "", "", "", "", "","", "", ],

You should write
["Home","", "", "", "", "", "0", "0", "", ],
 ["|Localmag Homepage","localmagwebsite/index.htm", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
 ["|Medway Homepage","localmagwebsite/medwaytowns/medwayhomepage.html", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["Charity","", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
 ["|childrens","localmagwebsite/medwaytowns/charities/childrenscharities/childrens_charity_home_page.htm", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
 ["|medical","localmagwebsite/medwaytowns/charities/medicalcharities/medical_charity_home_page.htm", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
 ["|religious","localmagwebsite/medwaytowns/charities/religiouscharities/religious_charity_home_page.htm", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],


Q: I am having some difficulty dynamically adding items to a dhtml sliding menus.

A: See dtreet_ext_insertItem () function has the following parameters:

function dtreet_ext_insertItem (menuInd, parentItemID, itemInd, itemParams)

Creates a new item and inserts it into a specified position.
menuInd - index of a menu on a page, >= 0.
parentItemID - ID property of an item.<, >= 0.
itemInd - index of a new item within the menu, >= 0.
itemParams - item parameters.

Notice that parentItemID is the Id property of the parent item
(notindex). If you want to add top items you should set parentItemID=0.

itemInd - you should use this parameter if you want to add item in the
specific place, for example set itemInd=5 if you want to add item
before the existing item with itemInd=5.
If you set itemInd=null the new item will be added at the end of this submenu and its index will be added automatically.
