Q: When the page initially loads, the sizing of all the tabsappear the way I want them to.
The first time any of the tabs are clicked on in the dhtml tab menu, I get a little bit of white space and a faint vertical line just to the left of tab 1.
A: Try to set your tabs in the following way:
var bmenuItems = [
["TRACING SYSTEM","link:tracing.html", "", "", "", "AUTOMATED TRACING SYSTEM", "", "", "", ],
["DOCUMENT RETRIEVAL","link:docret.html", "", "", "", "DOCUMENT RETRIEVAL SYSTEM", "", "", "", ],
["ON SPOT BY BOOKING NUMBER","link:onspot.html", "", "", "", "ON SPOT BY BOOKING NUMBER", "", "", "", ],
["CUSTOMER PORTALS","link:portals.html", "", "", "", "CUSTOMER PORTALS", "", "", "", ],
["EDI","link:edi.html", "", "", "", "ELECTRONIC DATA INTERCHANGE", "", "", "", ],
["GPS TRACKING","link:gps.html", "", "", "", "GPS TRACKING", "", "", "", ],
["WMS","link:wms.html", "", "", "", "WAREHOUSE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM", "", "", "", ],
];
You should also set
var bselectedItem=0;
to select your first item by default in that case.
Q: I am attempting to use the deluxe menu with frames. After click a few links the popup part of the menu stops showing up. This especially happens if the content of the main frame requires scrolling. In this case the scroll bar just flickers when I put the mouse over the menu.
Do you know why this would happen?
A: We need to check your menu.
Please, send us a direct link to your website, so we can check it.
Please, notice also that Deluxe Menu can work within 1 frameset only.
It can't work within nested framesets. It is possible that you'll havesome errors.
The menu will work correctly in the cross-frame mode if you load pages into the sub frame from the same domain.If you load pages from another domain submenus won't be shown in the subframe - they will be shown in the frame with the top-menu.It's caused by a security policy of browsers - a script can't modify a content of pages from another domain.
Q: We've used your deluxe menu on a few sites without any issues. We are trying a new site javascript menu system now and having an issue with beforeItemImage and afterItemImage. Below is our data javascript class. The dropdown seems fine in Firefox but the before and after Images are not showing up in Internet Explorer.
We've tried a number of things and can't quite get the tabbed corners in IE. Any suggestions would be greatly appreicated, we need to get this menu live soon for a client of ours. Thank you in advance.
A: Try to specify width and height parameters:
var beforeItemImageW="6";
var afterItemImageW="6";
var beforeItemImageH="19";
var afterItemImageH="19";
We've checked your page in IE6, IE7, IE8. All images displayed correctly.
Q: There does not appear to be any information how to display the content of a selected tab for the tab menu
A: If you want to see the content below your tab menu:
you should paste your content in the <div> .. </div> tags.
<div id="content1" style=" visibility: hidden;" class="tabPage">
<p align=center><img src="img/logo_DM.gif" width=262 height=56 alt="Deluxe-Menu.com"></p>
</div>
<div id="content2" style="visibility: hidden;" class="tabPage">
<p align=center><img src="img/logo_DT.gif" width=262 height=56 alt="Deluxe-Tree.com"></p>
</div>
<div id="content3" style=" visibility: hidden;" class="tabPage">
<p align=center><img src="img/logo_DTabs.gif" width=254 height=58 alt="Deluxe-Tabs.com"></p>
</div>
See in Deluxe Tabs there are two modes:
1. var tabMode=0;
You can create only one level of tabs and assign Object Id's of theDIV's to show when you click on the tab.
["XP Tab 1","content1", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["XP Tab 2","content2", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["XP Tab 3","content3", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["XP Tab 4","content4", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
2. var tabMode=1;
You can assign only links in this mode.
You should create top level items with subitems.
["XP Tab 1","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["|Link 1_1","http://deluxe-tabs.com", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["|Link 1_2","testlink.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["|Link 1_3","testlink.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["|Link 1_4","testlink.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["|Link 1_5","testlink.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["XP Tab 2","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["|Link 2_1","testlink.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["|Link 2_2","testlink.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["|Link 2_3","testlink.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["|Link 2_4","testlink.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["|Link 2_5","testlink.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["XP Tab 3","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["|Link 3_1","testlink.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["|Link 3_2","testlink.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["|Link 3_3","testlink.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["|Link 3_4","testlink.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["|Link 3_5","testlink.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
You can use Object ID as well as Link in both modes. Use the following prefixes within item's link field:
"object:" - means that there is object id after it;
"link:" - means that there is a link after it.
"javascript:" - means that there is a javascript code after it, for example:javascript:alert(\'Hello!\')
So, you should write for example:
["|Link 1_1","object:Content1_1", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
