Javascript Menu. DHTML Menu.

  • Setup menu parameters manually or using De Luxe Tuner. Then add some rows of a code within html page code and your menu is ready!
  • Use special Java Script methods for: Dynamic changing of items (link, text, icons, arrows and even individual style!). Addition/removing of items or submenus. Disabling and enabling menu items. Getting the info on every submenu, menu, and items. Changing appearance of items. Other coding tricks.
  • Cross-frame mode lets you to construct full-featured dhtml menus on the pages with frames. But for all that frame set it's not necessary to insert any additional code into all the pages - just specify several extra menu parameters.
  • Ability to handle the menu from the keyboard via keystrokes.

Q: I am trying to update a website using a deluxe-menu, but I do not understand the instructions for inserting it into a framed site. I have everything working, and the menu is on the page. I just cannot figure out how to make the submenus appear in another frame.

The website makes it sound like I need to alter the data.js file, but I do not have any programs on my computer that will allow me to do so.


A: You can open your data.js file in any text editor and add such linedm_initFrame("frmSet", 0, 1, 0); instead of dm_init();

More info you can find here:

Q: I need to set individual itemtargets for a number of menu script items......

example:-

  var itemTarget="Main";

menuitem_1 targets the Main frame..

menuitem_2 ..

   SUBmenuitem_2_(1) targets the Top frame..

   SUBmenuitem_2_(2) targets the Main frame..

menuitem_3 ..

   SUBmenuitem_3_(1) targets the Main frame..

   SUBmenuitem_3_(2) targets the Bottom frame..

menuitem_4 targets the Main frame..

Is this possible?

A: You can set target parameter for all items:
  var itemTarget="_blank";
or
  var itemTarget="main";

Where main - is the name of the main frame where you want to open the link.

or for each item individually:
["Home","testlink.html", "", "", "", "_blank", "", "", "", "", "", ],
...
["Home","testlink.html", "", "", "", "main", "", "", "", "", "", ],



Q: Is there a way to have an automatic line-break for large submenu items?
I'd prefer not to have scroll bars but automatic line break of long items.



A: Try to add the following parameter in your data file

  var tnoWrap=0;


Q: We do need the menuitem separation bars as most of the menuitems are quit lengthy, and there needs to be a separation bar to distinguish between them.

A: If you want to add separators between items you can paste a separatorbetween items or you can set item's border width in the following way:

  var itemBorderWidth="0 0 1 0";
But you cannot enter this value in Deluxe Tuner you should set thisparameter manually.
You can also create style for the last item with border width = 0:

  var itemStyles = [
["itemBorderWidth=0"],
];

To add separators, please, see the following parameters:

//--- Separators
  var separatorImage=""; //for subitems
  var separatorWidth="5";
  var separatorHeight="100%";
  var separatorAlignment="right";
  var separatorVImage="images/public/separator.gif"; //for the top items
  var separatorVWidth="1";
  var separatorVHeight="100%";
  var separatorPadding="";

You should set a separator in the menuItems, for example:

  var menuItems = [
["Home","index.cfm", , , , , , , , ],
["-"],
["About Us","about.cfm", , , , , , , , ],
];
