Q: How can I load some text or a page into the javascript switch menu?
A: 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 the
DIV'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", "", "", ],
Q: Do your popup menus work with Dreamweaver?
A: Deluxe Menu wasn't developed as Dreamweaver/Frontpage extension and wedon't have plug-ins for it.
To install the menu into your html page:
1. create and save .js file with your menu parameters in Deluxe Tuner
2. open your .html page in Dreamweaver
3. Copy data.js file and "data.files/" folder in the same folderwith your html page.
4. add several rows of code (<script> tags).
For info see:
http://deluxe-menu.com/installation-info.html
<head>
<!-- Deluxe Menu -->
<noscript><a href="http://deluxe-menu.com">Javascript Menu by Deluxe-Menu.com&</a></noscript>
<script type="text/javascript"> var dmWorkPath="data.files/";</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="data.files/dmenu.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
...
<script type="text/javascript" src="data.js"></script>
...
</body>
That's all.
It is possible that Dreamweaver changes some paths,
so you'll havean error in the preview.
On your site or in your browser there'll be no errors.
Q: I have generated my navigation menu bar and want to incorporate it into my current website.
How do I resize and position the navigational menu inside a table?
A: 1) Resize:
You could specify exact width for menu using that parameter:
var menuWidth="400px";
You can also set exact width for each top item using Individual Item Styles:
var itemStyles = [ ["itemWidth=120px"],];
var menuItems = [ ["Item 1","", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["Item 2","", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["Item 3","", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["Item 4","", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["Item 5","", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
];
2) Position the navigational menu inside a table:
You can paste the menu inside the <div> or <table> tag, for example:
<DIV align=center>
<SCRIPT src="data/data.js" type=text/javascript>
</SCRIPT>
</DIV>
<table width=800>
<tr>
<td align=center width=600><script type="text/javascript" src="data/data.js"></script></td>
</tr>
</table>
Q: One more query, can we remove the following line from all the pages,
<noscript><a href=http://deluxe-menu.com/>Javascript Menu byDeluxe-Menu.com</a></noscript>
<script type="text/javascript"> var dmWorkPath = "/";</script>
As the script <noscript> tags are used in body section of webpage and when we use this in Head tag, it is creating a problem for us. Will removing this line would cause some problem in working of menu, as now a days every browser in the world supports JavaScripts.
A: You cannot delete the following line:
<script type="text/javascript"> var dmWorkPath = "/";</script>
Your menu won't work without this line.
You can try to move the following code in the <body> tag. Try that.

<!-- Deluxe Menu -->
<noscript><a href="http://deluxe-menu.com">Javascript Menu by Deluxe-Menu.com</a></noscript>
<script type="text/javascript"> var dmWorkPath = "menudir/";</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="menudir/dmenu.js"></script>
