Q: Only problem left is that we see an empty image in the left corner of the java pulldown menu.
I can't find how to remove this image. Do you know where this comes from?
A: You should delete the following string from your menuItems
["","", , , , , "0", ],
Try that.
Q: I\'m testing out your menu system and I have a question regarding one of our current menu item\'s functionality.
Currently, I have a menu item that performs an onclick window.open function so that it opens a popup window at a certain size and with certain parameters.
Is it possible to have similar functionality with an item on your menu system?
A: You should use a Javascript code with a link field so:
["Text", "javascript:window.open('../Help/Text_Index.htm', 'Help', 'height=450,width=600,scrollbars');"]
Q: Actually I think we've managed to figure most of the below out, so I'd be grateful if you could give us some pointers with the following instead...
How might we be able to include your javascript menu scripts within e.g. asp tags? We'd like some menu options to be hidden from some users, but I'm getting errors when I put asp tags in your data.js file.
A: It seems to me that you have syntactical error in your code.
Please, check that you don't have double quotes in your code. If you have several quotes you shoulduse back slashes before them, for example:
<%
response.Write( " ['|Test A','javascript:alert(\'Test\');', '', '', '', '', '0', '-1', '', ], " )
%>
["|Loan Profile","../pipeline/loan_profile.asp?id=<%=rsLoans('loan_id')%>", "", "","", "", "", "2"],
Q: How do I highlight the current tab in a hover tab menu?
A: This Tabs menu can save pressed item automatically within1 page only.
If you open another page, the menu can't remember presseditem.
You should do that manually using Javascript and menu parameters
( var bselectedItem and var var bselectedSmItem) or using any server-side script (php, asp, etc.)
Deluxe Tabs doesn't support API functions which can return theselected tab.
If your site is written on PHP you can set "bselectedItem" and "varbselectedSmItem" parameters based on your link beforeyou call your data file.
For example, move "bselectedItem" and " var bselectedSmItem" parametersfrom your data file to your code.
<TD vAlign=top align=left>
/* Select Tab */
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript1.2">
var bselectedItem=<?php echo $seltabs; ?>;
var bselectedSmItem=<?php echo $selsmtabs; ?>;
</script>
<SCRIPT src="data.js" type=text/javascript></SCRIPT>
</TD>
You should define seltabs and selsmtabs using server side script.
You can also set it on every page before you call data.js file, forexample:
<TD vAlign=top align=left>
/* Select Tab */
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript1.2">
var bselectedItem=4;
var bselectedSmItem=3;
</script>
<SCRIPT src="data.js" type=text/javascript></SCRIPT>
</TD>
Try that.
