Q: Does your drop down menu creator work in Expression Web?
A: Deluxe Menu wasn't developed as Dreamweaver/Frontpage/Microsoft Expression Web extension,
BUT you can use it as standard Javascript files.
To install the menuinto your html page:
1. open the page in your program
2. open html source code of the page
3. add several rows of code (<script> tags).
For info see: http://deluxe-menu.com/installation-info.html
That's all.
Q: I have been using Deluxe Menu quite a bit, but am now running into a problem on a site I developed. When I add a submenu, it appears separated by about 100 pixels down. In this case I left it on the Menu Item “Why Maumelle” for you to look at.
Can you help me out?
A: See, the problem is that the script can't get css properties of the object if they are described in separate .css block (or file).
In other words, you can't get the value of "position" attribute of the object if the object doesn't have this property within inline style(style="position:relative"). To get the value you should move .css style into style="" attribute.
Please, try to add your
css file -> inline css, for example:
For example, you should add style="position:relative;"
to the
<DIV class=MainBody>
<DIV class=Banner></DIV>
<DIV class=Menu>
So, you'll have:
<DIV class=MainBody style="position:relative;">
<DIV class=Banner></DIV>
<DIV class=Menu style="position:relative;">
Now we have only such solution for this problem.
We'll try to fix this problem in the future versions.
Q: My Deluxe Menu works super.
Anyway, I would like to make it more comfortable for my users.
So, I would like to know if it possible to create a "Multicolumn Menu"
(http://deluxe-menu.com/multicolumn-menu-sample.html)
and separate define which submenu should be multicolumn and wich one looks "normal".
In your example all menu options which have submenus become multicolumn-look.
Is it maybe also possible to create such Multicolumn-look?
Group_01 Group_02 Group_03
- xxx - xxx - xxx
- xxx - xxx - xxx
- xxx - xxx - xxx
Group_04 Group_05 Group_06
- xxx - xxx - xxx
- xxx - xxx - xxx
- xxx - xxx - xxx
A: Yes, you can create such menu.
You can create "normal" items using separator.
["|-","testlink.htm"],
Please, see the attached example.
Q: I need to know if it is possible to call a JavaScript function from the cool dhtml menu.
I have read the FAQ and noted where it lists that you can perform an alert call, and that worked on my end as well, but when Iattempted to call a function I created I could not get it torespond.
Is it possible to call a function from your menu?
Could Iget an example?
A: You can write your own functions within menuItems, for example:
["|Real-Time Data Query","javascript:window.open('http://www.domain.org/','_blank','height=758,width=1024,status=yes,toolbar=no,menubar=no,location=no');"
,,,'Query real time water quality data' ,'' , '', '', ,],
