Javascript Menu. DHTML Menu.

  • Create contextual menus for your pages. For this purpose you should assign a special function for the object you want. The current coordinates of the mouse pointer or your own ones can be used for the contextual menu.
  • When the submenu is larger than the visible area of the page the submenu will be automatically decreased. To see all the submenu items you do not need to use scrollbars or something like that - just put your mouse to the bottom of a submenu and it will be automatically scrolled! You can also specify height and width for each separate submenu.
  • Build menus completely based on Cascading Style Sheets. It is possible to appoint the individual CSS styles for separate elements of the menu.

Recent Questions

Q: We have several problems with your menu.
Notice when trying to select a drop down item…the item disappears, rather than holding in place as the mouse is over the menu item.

Second, we’d like to know how to expand the width of the main headers and sub headers. Currently, they are not of the same width.

Lastly, we’d like to change the font and load new fonts to match the branding of the menu items.
Please let us know where we can find instructions to make these modifications/customizations.


A: Please, try to write your menuItems parameter correctly.
You should set "iconOver" parameter for each item (you can set "").
Please, see how you should write your menuItems:

["","index.php","nav_home_out.gif","nav_home_over.gif","","_self","0",,,],
["","","nav_experience_out.gif","nav_experience_over.gif","","_self","0",,,],
     ["|Contestants","experience_contestants.php","","","_self","2",,,],
...

You should use Individual styles, for example:

  var itemStyles = [
["itemWidth=120px","arrowImageMain=image1,image2=home_out.gif,home_over.gif"],     // style 0
["itemBorderWidth=2","itemBorderStyle=solid,solid", "itemBorderColor=#AA0000,#0000FF"],     // style 1
["fontStyle=bold 12px Arial,Helvetica", "fontDecoration=none,underline"],     // style 2
];

  var menuItems = [
["","index.php","nav_home_out.gif","nav_home_over.gif","","_self","0",,,],
    ["","","nav_experience_out.gif","nav_experience_over.gif","","_self","0",,,],
...

For submenus you should set the following parameter:

  var smWidth="150px";

> Lastly, we’d like to change the font and load new
> fonts to match the branding of the menu items.

You should also use Individual styles.
But you should set this parameter:

  var fontStyle="";
And then use different fonts for your items.


Q: Is there any way to have the browser reset the horizontal tree view to allcollapsed each time the browser is reopened?

A: You should set the following parameter in that case:

  var tsaveState=0;

Q: How does one go about changing the parameter or the JavaScript so that a vertical menu selection stays 'on'? In other words, the vertical menu remains selected, perhaps in a background color that shows the user this menu choice is selected and the user is in the selected menu area.

A: To save your navigation path you should set the following parameter:

  var saveNavigationPath = 1;
The menu keeps items highlighted during menu navigation.
0 - disabled, 1 - enabled (default).

You can highlight menu items by default in two ways:

1) Set the pressed item on each page idividually using the following parameter:

  var pressedItem = -2;
The toggle mode. Sets an index of an item that will be highlighted by default.
-2 - the toggle mode is disabled;
-1 - the toggle mode is enabled, but no items highlighted by default;
0,1,2,3,... - index of highlighted item in a top-level menu.
- delete   var pressedItem=1; parameter from your data file
- set correct parameter on each page before you call data file, for example:

<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>
<script type="text/javascript">  var pressedItem=2;</script>
...
<script type="text/javascript" src="menudir/data.js"></script>

2) Set the pressed item/subitem using dm_ext_setPressedItem () function.

Q: Can I put the icon on the left hand side of the text or does it have to be the right in the tree menu script?

A: You can put the icon as you wish on the left or right side.
You may set a alignment of icons and arrows.
To set them use these parameters:

  var ticonAlign="right";
  var texpandBtnAlign="right";

To set alignment of the top items in XP-style use:

  var tXPAlign="right";
