Q: I have the mouseover menu working fine but want the chosen option to display in a tab under the menu.
A: Deluxe Tabs doesn't have API functions to set pressed item on-the-fly. You can set presseditem on the page loading only.
But you can use onClick event for the Deluxe Menu items and call the following function toopen appropriate tab:
dtabs_itemClick(menuN, itemN);
where
menuN - index of a menu on a page, >= 0.
itemN - index of a tab you want to show, >=0.
["<div onClick='dtabs_itemClick(0,2)'>Open 3rd tab</div>","", "deluxe-menu.files/icon1.gif", "deluxe-menu.files/icon1o.gif", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
Q: Our company has been using the trial version of Deluxe Menu and was satisfied enough with initial integration efforts to acquire the license version.
We are interested in making our main dhtml rollover menu items a constant width, but the data.js parameters ( var menuWidth="800px"; var menuHeight="30px"; var smWidth=""; var smHeight="";) don't seem to give us that capability. We dynamically remove main menu items based on user roles and when we do the main menu always re-sizes and the remaining main menu item widths no longer match our sub-menu widths. We're able to adjust for this by using the API but that seems to be a lot of unnecessary coding. If we could keep each main menu item a fixed width, our sub-menu widths would not have to change.
Do you have information on how to accomplish fixed main menu item widths, even better would be an example?
A: Actually you can specify the width and of all or individual dhtml rollover menu items or submenus usingIndividual Item/Submenu styles.
Q: How can I remove the vertical lines that connect the + signs in my javascript slide out menu. I do want to keep the -+ signs but just not the virticle lines.
A: See the following javascript slide out menu parameters:
// Lines
var tpoints = 1;
var tpointsImage = "vpoint.gif";
var tpointsVImage = "hpoint.gif";
var tpointsCImage = "cpoint.gif";
If you don't want to use lines you should set:
// Lines
var tpoints = 0;
var tpointsImage = "";
var tpointsVImage = "";
var tpointsCImage = "";
Q: The value of dmAJAXCount = 0 (we don't set that parameter).
How exactly does this parameter work? When does it have to be set?
A: That variable set the maximal number of submenus that will be loadedfrom server on your page.
If you don't know exact number of submenus you can set a big value forthis parameter.
