Q: Please tell me where I am going wrong:
The menu is all messed up!
A: See, now you have:
var itemBackImage=["data.files/btn_green.gif","data.files/btn_whitegreen.gif"];
and you also assign Individual Item Style with itemBackImage anditemWidth parameters for each item
var itemStyles = [
["itemWidth=92px","itemBorderWidth=0","fontStyle=normal 11px Tahoma","fontColor=#000000,#000000",
"itemBackImage=data.files/btn_whitegreen.gif,data.files/btn_white_white.gif"],
];
var menuItems = [
["projects","", , , , , "0", "0", , ],
["FMWR","", , , , , "0", "0", , ],
["general water info","", , , , , "0", "0", , ],
["bulletin board","", , , , , "0", "0", , ],
["WSS MDG tracking","", , , , , "0", "0", , ],
["reform instruments","", , , , , "0", "0", , ],
You should delete itemBackImage and itemWidth parameters from itemStyles.
Q: Is there a way to hide a menu options using either CSS or the java api based on the site user for the mouseover menu?
A: Deluxe Menu supports Javascript API.
You can find more info here:
http://deluxe-menu.com/dynamic-functions-sample.html
You can try to use API functions in that case:
function dm_ext_changeItemVisibility (menuInd, submenuInd, itemInd, visibility)
To disable items you should set the target parameter to "_".
You can try to use the following function
function disable() {
dm_ext_changeItem(0, 1, 1, ["", "", "", "", "", "_"]);
}
to disable your items.
Q: I have downloaded the trial version of Deluxe Menu and am seriously looking at buyingit. I am trying to go thro the instructions and check out if it meets my requirement.
I am not able to figure out how to equally space out all my menu items on the javascript menu bar.
My menu bar width is fixed at 800 px and I have 7 items - horizontal type. The menuitems widths appear different for the menu items. How do I ensure that all of them are ofequal size ??
A: Set width for the items using Individual styles:
var itemStyles=[["itemWidth=100px"],] //style 0
Assign Individual Styles for the menu Items.
var menuItems = [
["Item 1","", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", "", "", ], //style 0
["Item 2",", "data2.files/icon1.gif", "data2.files/icon1o.gif", "", "", "0", "", "", "", "", ], //style 0
];Q: I was not able to resolve seeing FAQ, is the following one:
If an item of a menu is very large, as "please, select the color you prefer for the background of the image of the photo of your san", as can I put a break line to obtain the item written in two or more lines?, as, for example:
please, select the color you
prefer for the background of
the image of the photo of your son
only an item, anly a link, but three lines in the item.
A: Try to set this parameter:
var noWrap=0;
If it is not suitable for you, try to use <br> tags in the item text, for example:
var menuItems = [
["please, select the color you<br>prefer for the background
of<br>the image of the photo of your son",,,],
];
