Q: I have 6 menu items that are ALL graphics...they can't just be background images because they all have graphic text, so the rollovers are unique to each menu item. I just need it to function like a typical rollover with images.
A: Yes, you can create such menu.
You should write your menu items in the following way:
["","", "images/vista1/btn_black.gif", "images/vista1/btn_black_blue.gif", , , , , , ],
["","", "images/vista1/btn_black.gif", "images/vista1/btn_black_blue.gif", , , , , , ],
Q: Hi There. I wanted to use your product, but couldn’t figure out how multiple users could get varying menus using the file driven approach.
I currently use a java menu that I build on the fly without any files.
The only thing I could come up with was having each user refer to his/her own data.js file, that I can build on demand.
Does that make sense to you?
A: Deluxe Menu is Javascript code only. It requires several .js files andit's generated on a client side.
Theoretically it is possible to have varying menus for multiple users.You should create your own server-side script (for example, php) thatwill change the menu for your users. The menu doesn't support such afeature.
Q: I can not figure out how to build tab drop down menus?
A: See in Deluxe Tabs there are two modes:
1. var tabMode=0;
You can create only one level of tabs and assign Object Id's of the
DIV's to show when you click on the tab.
["XP Tab 1","content1", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["XP Tab 2","content2", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["XP Tab 3","content3", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["XP Tab 4","content4", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
2. var tabMode=1;
You can assign only links in this mode.
You should create top level items with subitems.
["XP Tab 1","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["|Link 1_1","http://deluxe-tabs.com", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["|Link 1_2","testlink.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["|Link 1_3","testlink.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["|Link 1_4","testlink.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["|Link 1_5","testlink.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["XP Tab 2","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["|Link 2_1","testlink.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["|Link 2_2","testlink.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["|Link 2_3","testlink.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["|Link 2_4","testlink.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["|Link 2_5","testlink.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["XP Tab 3","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["|Link 3_1","testlink.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["|Link 3_2","testlink.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["|Link 3_3","testlink.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["|Link 3_4","testlink.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["|Link 3_5","testlink.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
You can use Object ID as well as Link in both modes. Use the following prefixes within item's link field:
"object:" - means that there is object id after it;
"link:" - means that there is a link after it.
"javascript:" - means that there is a javascript code after it, for example:javascript:alert(\'Hello!\')
So, you should write for example:
["|Link 1_1","object:Content1_1", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
