Q: The menu has a problem with newlines. The menu builds correctly (layout ok) but when pressed on the button nothing happens
At some point, in the DHTML menu, we have the following in the javascript:
var menuitems = [
["|Print HTML","javascript:alert('HTML print: Only the 7 most recent orders on the screen \n will be printed because of space limitations on paper.');printResult('4'); ","","", ,"_parent",,] ]
As you can see we have a newline (\n) between the words "screen" and "will". But when we click on the button nothing happens. If we remove the newline and we click on the button then we first get the alert box. After pressing the OK button the function printResult is called.
Is there any way for us to still use the newline character in the menuItems variable?
This can be easily reproducible. That's why I haven't made an example.
A: Try to write in the following way \\n:
["|Print HTML","javascript:alert('HTML print: Only the 7 most recent orders on the screen \\n will be printed because of space limitations on paper.');printResult('4'); ","","", ,"_parent",,]
Q: Can I use drop down navigation menu using subfolders? I am trying to build amenu system but the website contains a lot of subfolders.
A: Yes, you can use deluxe-menu on the site with a lot of subfolders.
You can use additional parameters to make menu paths absolute:
var pathPrefix_img = "http://domain.com/images/";
var pathPrefix_link = "http://domain.com/pages/";
These parameters allow to make images and links paths absolute.
For example:
var pathPrefix_img = "http://domain.com/images/";
var pathPrefix_link = "http://domain.com/pages/";
var menuItems = [
["text", "index.html", "icon1.gif", "icon2.gif"],
];
So, link path will be look so:
http://domain.com/pages/index.html
Images paths will be look so:
http://domain.com/images/icon1.gif
http://domain.com/images/icon2.gif
Please, try to use these parameters.
Q: I’m trying to add a padding before the beforeItemImage for the sub navigation bar but I can’t do it after hours off trying it.
A: You should add a separator with blank (or white) image.
var separatorVImage="deluxe-menu.files/space.gif";
var separatorVWidth="7px";
var separatorVHeight="27px";
var separatorPadding="0px";
And assign Individual style for this item
["itemBorderWidth=0","itemBorderStyle=none,none"],
Q: I am testing the menu under the 2nd URL however I am just receiving a blank page Why would the menu be totally blank ...not even incorrect key or trial version warnings. Does Deluxe menu need ASP installed on the server.
A: You should call dmWorkPath parameter before you call dmenu.js file.
Check also that this parameter point to the same directory withdmenu.js file. So, you should install the menu in the following way:
<noscript><a href=http://deluxe-menu.com/>JavaScript Menu by Deluxe-Menu.com</a> </noscript>
<script type="text/javascript"> var dmWorkPath = "/";</script>
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript1.2" src="dmenu.js"></script>
Check it.
