Javascript Menu. DHTML Menu.

  • Tune menu parameters manually or using Deluxe Tuner. Then add several rows of a code within html page - your menu is ready!
  • Use special JavaScript functions for: Dynamic changing of items (text, link, icons and even individual style!). Making a menu item active/inactive. Addition/removing of items. Changing of visibility of items. Getting the information on any menu, submenu and items. Other tricks.
  • Opportunity to control the menu from the keyboard.
  • Cross-frame mode allows you to build full-featured menus on the pages that use frame-based structure. But for all that it's not necessary to insert any additional code into all the pages - just specify some additional parameters of the menu.

Q: I am in the final stages of testing and need some advice and help.

I have two problems I am trying to address.

1) Arrows on dropdown menu select.

2) Load time.

Please notice, I have to use absolute paths for the dropdown menu select to work.

1) I can't get the arrows to show, so I tried to add the code for images in the first bold sentence below.

2) I tried to add the second line for absolute paths for links to increase load time in the second bold sentence. It appears that the load time is increased by about 3 seconds and that the menu is the last to load, even though I have tried to have this as the first html to load.

Neither one of my commands appear to work.

This site has over 10,000,000 items on it, and I can't wait to get this up and running. Your program is the perfect solution for anybody with a website.

A: 1) Now you have:

  var arrowImageMain=["mainmenu.files/arrv_blue_2.gif","mainmenu.files/arrv_white_2.gif"];
  var arrowImageSub=["mainmenu.files/arr_blue_2.gif","mainmenu.files/arr_white_2.gif"];

You should set your arrows in the following way:

  var arrowImageMain=["arrv_blue_2.gif","arrv_white_2.gif"];
  var arrowImageSub=["arr_blue_2.gif","arr_white_2.gif"];

2) Your menu is very large. I advise you to us AJAX like technology.

http://deluxe-menu.com/ajax-technology-menu-sample.html

You can also try the following things:

move all <script> calls into <head>, but delete dm_init() function from mainmenu.js file -- move them instead offiles calls, i.e.:

<head>
<script src=mainmenu.js>
...
</head>

...

<div><script>dm_init();</script></div>

It this case data will be loaded when <head> will load, but after thatdropdown menu select must be shown quickly.
Let me know about results.



Q: Where can I give the body of the javascript method which I use in cool dhtml menu?


A: You can define functions after menuItems, before you call dm_init();function.

  var menuItems = [
["text", "javascript:your_function(...)", ...]
];

Where your_function(...):

function your_function(...)
{
.....
}


Q: Now on IE for Windows, the menus disappear as I roll over them, though not always.
I'd say 90% of the time they fade away as my cursor crosses them.
10% they stay and I can get a good click.

On Safari, they work great.


A: See menu parameters they contain:
  var smShowPause=0;
  var smHidePause=0;

You should set, for example:
  var smShowPause=200;
  var smHidePause=1000;

Try that.


Q: I'm wondering if you can use the Link Item of the Deluxe Menu to have ASP code, similar to yoru FAQ below, only replacing the Javascript with ASP?

Q: I want to use Javascript instead of usual links for menu items. How can I do that? A: To do that you should add a function word "javascript" in the URL field of an item, e.g.:

  var menuItems = [
[text, "javascript:alert('Hello, world!')", icon1, icon2],
];


A: Thanks for your interest in our products.

You can use any server-side script, e.g., PHP, ASP, VB, etc.

You can find the example with PHP here:
