Q: I now wish to dynamically change the drop down menu in html parameters. For this, I have set the following parameters:

// Dynamic Menu
  var dynamic=1;

1.Please send me the reference link for the dynamic menu commands available (for javascript).

2.Now AFTER initialization, dm_init();, I wish to change the default   var itemTarget="Sub_Main";

How do I do that??

A: You can find more info about API functions here:
http://deluxe-menu.com/functions-info.html

Unfortunately it is not possible to change drop down menu in html parameters (  var ...)after menu initialization.
So, there is no way to change
  var itemTarget="Sub_Main";

But you can change target for each item individually (targetparameter in menuItems) using dm_ext_changeItem function.

  var menuItems = [
[text, link, iconNormal, iconOver, tip, target, itemStyleInd, submenuStyleInd, jsFilename],
[text, link, iconNormal, iconOver, tip, target, itemStyleInd, submenuStyleInd, jsFilename],
...
];



Q: I am having a problem trying to get my scrolling menu javascript to work correctly with frames.

My web page is frame based. There are THREE (3) Rows. The top roe is "header" and the bottom row is "footer". The center row is divided into TWO (2) columns. The left is "contents" and the right is "main". This is a very standard configuration.

I have created a menu called "member-menu" and added it to the "content" html file. I have edited the "member-menu.js" file to add the "dm_initFrame("FrmSet",0,1,0); at the end of the file. Using the instruction provided when the scrolling menu javascript was saved. I then uploaded all of the required file to my server. At this point everything is fine, I go to a password protected page in the "\members" folder and this seems to work also. When I try to go to a "submenu" it wants to expand to the right in the "content" FRAME. I need it to expand into the "main" FRAME on the right.

I know that I am doing something wrong. I have read the instructions a dozen times and can't find the problem.

A: You should write the ID of your frames correctly, for example now youhave:

header - 0
contents - 1 (frame with the menu)
main - 2 (frame with submenus)
bootom - 3

In that case you should write init function in the following way:

dm_initFrame("FrmSet",1,2,1);

where - dm_initFrame("FrmSet",frame with the menu,frame with submenus,1);

Try that.

Q: I cannot see the shadow on the top items of the menu. Can you help me?


A: Now you have shadow the submenus only, if you want to have shadowfor the top items you should set the following parameters:

//--- Transitional Effects & Filters
  var shadowLen=4;
  var shadowColor="#B1B1B1";
  var shadowTop=1;

You can see the shadow in Internet Explorer 5+ only.

Q: My question is how can I change the size and color of the font for the
main items in the simple dhtml menu, not the drop downs?


A: You can use Individual Item Styles in that case:
http://deluxe-menu.com/individual-item-styles-info.html

Set the style you need for subitems:

  var fontStyle=["normal 11px Trebuchet MS, Tahoma","normal 11px Trebuchet MS, Tahoma"];

Set the style you need for main items:

  var itemStyles = [
["fontStyle='bold 12px Arial','bold 12px Arial'"], // style 0
];

Assign this style for main items:

  var menuItems = [
["Scenic album","scenic-album.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", "", "", ], //assign style 0
 ["|Item 8","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
 ["|Item 9","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],>  ["|Item 10","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ], ["Floral album","floral-album.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", "", "", ], //assign style 0
["Southwest album","southwest-album.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", "", "", ], //assign style 0
["Wildlife album","wildlife-album.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", "", "", ], //assign style 0
];
