Q: I am having some difficulty dynamically adding items to a dhtml sliding menus.
A: See dtreet_ext_insertItem () function has the following parameters:
function dtreet_ext_insertItem (menuInd, parentItemID, itemInd, itemParams)
Creates a new item and inserts it into a specified position.
menuInd - index of a menu on a page, >= 0.
parentItemID - ID property of an item.<, >= 0.
itemInd - index of a new item within the menu, >= 0.
itemParams - item parameters.
Notice that parentItemID is the Id property of the parent item
(notindex). If you want to add top items you should set parentItemID=0.
itemInd - you should use this parameter if you want to add item in the
specific place, for example set itemInd=5 if you want to add item
before the existing item with itemInd=5.
If you set itemInd=null the new item will be added at the end of this submenu and its index will be added automatically.
Q: I have read your FAQ's on "When using javascript tabbed menu, where do I place the text content related to the selected tab", but I am still not understanding how to edit the java text menu. Can someone please assist me. This is for our Pack website and I have subscribed to a non-profit license. Thank you for your time.
A: You should specify any Object ID name of the DIV.
See, for each java text menu item you should assign the ID property of the contentDIV (see data file with your menu parameters).
["Style Name","contentName", "", "", "", "", "1", "", "", ],
["-","", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["Style Description","contentDescription", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["-","", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["Style Variations","contentVariations", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["-","", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["Empty","", "", "", "", "", "2", "", "", ],
And on your html page you should create DIV's with such ID. You canset background image for these DIV's in styles.
<div id="contentName" style="height: 0%; visibility: hidden; background-image: url('img/back.jpg'); background-repeat:repeat-y;" class="tabPage">
<br><br><br>
<p align=center><img src="img/style01_title.gif" width=140 height=90 alt="Glass Style Tabs"></p>
<br><br><br>
You should paste your content here!!!!!
</div>
<div id="contentDescription" style="height: 0%; visibility: hidden;" class="tabPage">
<br><br><br>
<p align=center><img src="img/style01_title.gif" width=140 height=90 alt="Glass Style Tabs"></p>
<br><br><br>
You should paste your description here!!!!!
</div>
Q: I got the tabs menu to work!
Can you tell me which file(s) I must change to change the content of each tab
Very many thanks for your help.
A: For each tab you can set content <div> (contentName,contentDescription, contentVariations).
var bmenuItems =
[
["Style Name","contentName",,,,,"1"],
["-",,,,,,"0"],
["Style Description","contentDescription"],
["-",,,,,,"0"],
["Style Variations","contentVariations"],
["-",,,,,,"0"],
["Empty",,,,,,"2"],
];
You can find these divs in the tabs-style-glass.html file. You shouldpaste the content of your tabs in these divs.
Q: I fixed that problem, but if you look at the website, I have the first 2 links in the javascript sliding menu set to show up in the mainframe but nothing happens. When I open deluxe menu on my computer, it also shows that I have the third link set up to show in the mainframe too but when I upload it to the website, it acts like it's not pointing to any file/url
A: Now you have:
["Home","main.html", "", "", "", "#mainframe", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["County Departments","dept.html", "", "", "", "#mainframe", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["Board Members","", "", "", "", "mainfrm", "", "", "", "", "", ],
It is not correct to set target as "#mainframe". You should write"mainframe":
["Home","main.html", "", "", "", "mainframe", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["County Departments","dept.html", "", "", "", "mainframe", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["Board Members","", "", "", "", "mainframe", "", "", "", "", "", ],
