Q: Thanks for getting back with me but how do you build the menu?
I opened Deluxe Tuner program to build a menu and there are categories titled common, dimensions, font, appearance etc. and I have NO IDEA what to do?
Can you walk me through the development of a menu?
A: First of all you should add items.
Please, click "Add item" and "Add subitem".
In the "Item parameters" window you can set text, link, target, iconsfor the menu items. You can also assign different style for each menuitem (item style and submenu style).
But at first you should create this style. Click "Edit IndividualStyle/Add Style" and set different parameters for the style.
Try to set different parameters of the menu.
In the "Preview window" you can see all your changes.
First of all you should choose menu orientation:
var isHorizontal = 1; Menu orientation: 0 - vertical, 1 - horizontal.
You can set exact width and height of the menu in the "Dimension"category.
You should set
var absolutePos=1;
if you want to have absolute positioning menu.
Font style you can set in the "Font" category.
To set color of the menu you should set the following parameters:
var menuBackColor="#FCEEB0";
var menuBorderColor="#C0AF62";
var itemBackColor=["#FCEEB0","#65BDDC"];
var itemBorderColor=["#FCEEB0","#4C99AB"];
Try also to change these parameters:
var itemSpacing=3;
var itemPadding="3px";
Arrows for main items and subitems you can set here:
var arrowImageMain=["default.files/arrowmain.gif","default.files/arrowmaino.gif"];
var arrowImageSub=["default.files/arrowsub.gif","default.files/arrowsubo.gif"];
If want to have floatable or movable menu you should set the followingparameters:
var floatable=0;
var movable=0;
You can also try to change any template.
Q: Is there a way to specify certian font styles escpecailly a hanging indent on the text of the javascript menu scroll?
A: You should use Individual styles, for example:
var itemStyles = [
["fontStyle=bold 12px Arial,Helvetica", "fontDecoration=none,underline"], // style 0
["fontStyle=normal 12px Arial,Helvetica", "fontDecoration=underline,underline"], // style 1
["fontStyle=normal 14px Arial,Helvetica", "fontDecoration=none,none"], // style 2
];
And assign styles to your items:
var menuItems = [
["1 Item","index.php","","","","_self","0",,,],
["2 Item","","","","","_self","1",,,],
["|Submenu Item","","","","","_self","2",,,],...

Thanks again for your help.
