Q: I have a couple of questions related to the deluxe-menu software. Here they are:
I have been working with on a site and I am kind stack using the program. I want to use the tree option but not all java script drop menu items need to have subcategories. For example:
Category 1
Sub-menu 1-1
Sub-menu 1-2
Sub-menu 1-3
Category 2
Sub-menu 2-1
Sub-menu 2-2
Sub-menu 2-3
Category 3
Category 4 When someone click on the "Category 1" or "Category 2", I want them to see the sub-menus. However, when some click on "Category 3" or "Category 4", I would like to have it open the appropriate page. How do I do this? This will make a lot easier because not all java script drop menu items need to have sub-menus… I hope that makes sense and you can help me on getting this done.
Thanks in advance and looking forward to your answers,
A: You cannot use links for the top java script drop menu items in XP Style only.
var tXPStyle=1;
but you can write:
["<a href='http://deluxe-menu.com'>Item 45</a>","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
Q: I already found out the use of the pressedItem setting. However Iwas looking to be able to have a submenu in the html dropdown menu already expanded on pageload. Can you tell me if this is possible yet in any way ?
A: You can find the example here
http://deluxe-menu.com/highlighted-items-sample.html
Click on the following link:
Highlight "Product Info/Installation/Description of Files" item.
Use the following function to highlight items
function dm_ext_setPressedItem (menuInd, submenuInd, itemInd, recursion, parentOpen)
where parentOpen = true/false - open all submenus to show the selected item

Q: Can you create/destroy tabs with only client side javascript (no return trips to the server)?
A: Deluxe Tabs is Javascript product. it means that it is executed on aclient side, not on a server side.
So, whatever server you'll use, youshould install the menu the same way.
Q: I want to use
function dtreet_ext_userRightClick(itemID) {
alert(itemID[0]); ???
return false;
}
But how do I refer to tmenuItems array using itemID in the javascript?
For example, if I want to pop a link text, should I use alert(itemID[0]))?
It doesn't work.
Please let me know how I refer to the menu.
A: You should use the following function to get item's info:
dtreet_ext_getItemParams (0, itemID);
For example:
<script type="text/javascript">
function dtreet_ext_userRightClick(itemID)
{ var link = [];
link = dtreet_ext_getItemParams (0, itemID);
//Returns item parameters in the array:
// [item_id, index_within_submenu, parentID, level, has_child, child_count, expanded, text, link, target, tip, align, icons, hidden, disabled, visible]
alert(link[7]);
return false;
}
</script>
