Q: How I can write the changed dhtml pull down menu into a database?
A: Unfortunately, we don't have such example.
You may generate a menu from a database or XML using any server-side script, e.g., PHP, ASP, VB, etc.However, these scripts don't work inside of Javascript .js files, so, you should move parameters of a menu from a .js file into an html-page, e.g.:
<!-- Deluxe Tree -->
<noscript><a href="http://deluxe-tree.com">Javascript Tree Menu by Deluxe-Tree.com</a></noscript>
<script type="text/javascript" src="menudir/dtree.js"></script>
<!-- (c) 2006, http://deluxe-tree.com -->
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript1.2">
// and describe parameters of a menu
var parameter1=value1;
var parameter2=value2;
etc.
var tmenuItems = [
// here you generate items using server-side scripts (php, asp, vb, etc.)
];
</script>
The example of the menu working with PHP/MYSQL you can find here:
http://deluxe-menu.com/rq-loading-bar-MySQL-support.html
This example is not for Deluxe Tree menu, but you can create your menu in the same way.
Q: The dhtml css drop down menu hides under the flash videos an the flash header in firefox, it works alright in IE and I hae been on your FAQs an followed the transparent code to add to the flash to make the menu appear and adding the code to the data file but it still doesnt work. Could you look at the source code of the site and show me an example of how it would work and what edits I need to make as it’s very frustrating that I cant launch the site without this.
A: See how you should install the menu with flash for Firefox here:
http://deluxe-menu.com/objects-overlapping-sample.html
You should set "opaque" parameter for your flash, set the followingparameter
var dmObjectsCheck=1;
and add
function dm_ext_ruleObjectHide()
{
return false;
}
in the beginning of your dhtml css drop down menu data file.
Q: Can I change the style of javascript tree menu on the fly when I click the style menu items of the tree I made?
A: Theoretically you can do it.
Try to use
function dtreet_ext_userClick(itemID)
{
// Your Javascript code here
return true;
}
function and call
function dtreet_ext_changeItem (menuInd, itemID, itemParams)
function in it.
You should create Individual item style for this item and and assignthis style when you click on the item
Q: How do you specify different number of sub menu columns for each menu heading in the dhtml menu bar?
When I put var smColumns = 5; it changed it for both my multicolumn headings.
A: You should use Individual Submenu Styles, for example:
var menuStyles = [
["smColumns=3"],// 0 style
["smColumns=2"],// 1 style
];
var menuItems = [
