Q: I found some strange things while positioning the javascript hide menu. Does javascript hide menu behave different depending on where you are hosting your site?
A: Deluxe Menu is a Javascript product. It means that it works on aclient side only and it doesn't depend on the server which you're using.
Create us an example and send us a direct link to this example on bothhosting. We need to check it.
Q: I am interested in purchasing the developer license for Deluxe menu, but I wanted to see if I can use the trial version to accomplish what I need. You have an example of what I need on
http://deluxepopupwindow.com/ ("click here to open window"). I would like to click on a navigation menu link and have a pop up window linking to a url.
I got as far as being able to link the website in the pop up, but not exactly sure how you make a link that you can click to display the pop up.
A: Delete 'openAfter=' at all from deluxePopupWindow.attachToEventfunction:
deluxePopupWindow.attachToEvent(win,',,,,,')
In that case popup window won't show till you click on the link.
Q: I have a problem...
On some computers running IE the menu appears and works correctly, on others it doesn't appear.
There is only a line that says JavaScript Menu by Deluxe-Menu.com.
Both of these computers have the same version of IE running. I have reset the security levels back to default levels on both. Still the menu doesn't appear.
For all practical purposes both copies of IE are the same.
A: You should change your security settings in IE to allow Javascript onpages you load. In other case you can't see a dynamic page content.
There is no way to enable these preferences automatically, in othercase there are no reasons to create security preferences.
You can also use Deluxe Tuner application that allows you to generate additional html code for search engine that can't parse Javascript. So, you can use menu links on browsers that doesn't have Javascript support enabled.
Q: Navigation bar code should indicate with on which page I me just considers..
(with anothercolour of the font of the active Link from the navigation, or an underline, bolder font, ...).
A: Deluxe Menu has only two states normal and mouseover,
but you can highlight menu items in two ways:
Try to do the following things:
- delete var pressedItem=1; parameter from your data file
- set correct parameter on each page before you call data file,
for example:
<noscript><a href="http://deluxe-menu.com">Javascript Menu by Deluxe-Menu.com</a></noscript>
<script type="text/javascript" src="menudir/dmenu.js"<>/script<
>script type="text/javascript"< var pressedItem=3;>/script<
...
<script type="text/javascript" src="menudir/data.js"></script>
You can also set a pressed item using Javascript API:
function dm_ext_setPressedItem (menuInd, submenuInd, itemInd, recursion)
Sets a current pressed item.
menuInd - index of a menu on a page, >= 0.
submenuInd - index of a submenu, >= 0.
itemInd - index of an item, >=0.
recursion = true/false - highlight parent items.
But notice, to use dm_ext_setPressedItem() you should know ID of selected item and subitem.
You can't get this ID after you reload your page. That is why you should write your own code on PHP.
