Q: Is it possible to have your menu mouseover call one of my functions?
I need to change some text on the screen based on which menu itemis highlighted.
A: Each menu items can include any html code.
So, you can include your own objects with onmouseover event, forexample:
var menuItems = [
["<div onmouseover='yourFunc()'>item text</div>"]
];
Where yourFunc() is Javascript function.
Q: I have the dynamic dropdown menu working perfectly on the main page of the website, but when I try to install it onto html files that appear in subfolders of the site, the images do not appear. I have put ../ before all the links I can find and have the following codes placed in my file, what am I doing wrong?
A: You can use additional parameters to make dynamic dropdown menu paths absolute:
var pathPrefix_img = "http://domain.com/images/";
var pathPrefix_link = "http://domain.com/pages/";
These parameters allow to make images and links paths absolute.For example:
var pathPrefix_img = "http://domain.com/images/";
var pathPrefix_link = "http://domain.com/pages/";
var menuItems = [
["text", "index.html", "icon1.gif", "icon2.gif"],
];
So, link path will be look so:
http://domain.com/pages/index.html
Images paths will be look so:
http://domain.com/images/icon1.gif
http://domain.com/images/icon2.gif
Please, try to use these parameters.
Q: I found some strange things while positioning the javascript hide menu. Does javascript hide menu behave different depending on where you are hosting your site?
A: Deluxe Menu is a Javascript product. It means that it works on aclient side only and it doesn't depend on the server which you're using.
Create us an example and send us a direct link to this example on bothhosting. We need to check it.
Q: The menu doesn't show the drop down sub items. If you would look at the script there are two sublinks for Accommodation which however is not visible when we are doing a mouseover. I have attached the revised data.js file with this mail. Please let me know if thre is anything else hat i need to look into.
A: You should set back color for your submenus.
For example you should create style and assign it for the subitems:
var itemStyles = [
["itemBackColor=#61420A,#B77D13","itemBorderWidth=1","itemBorderStyle=solid,solid",,
"itemBorderColor=#3C2906,#3C2906"],//style0
];
["Accommodation","#", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["|test1 text text","", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ], //style0
["|test2 text text text text","", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],//style0
You should also set the following parameters:
var itemAlign="left";
var subMenuVAlign="bottom";
