Q: I am testing out your menu system as I try to redesign my site. It is a vertical menu with submenus.

I have hundreds of pages in my site and I'd like to be able to attach your menu system to all of them.
However, I will be making changes to the menu system on a regular basis.
I do not want to go change every program in the site each time I need to make a menu change.

I was hoping you could give me some kind of programming code that I could enter into the <body> section of my html files which would automatically read a file into my prograrm, which contained the menu code.
This way when a menu change is needed, I edit one file, all the programs read that file and display the menu.

As an example of the code I would want read into a webpage at start up:

<script type="text/javascript">  var dmWorkPath="files/";</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="files/dmenu.js"></script>
<div id="dmlinks" style="font:bold 9px Verdana;color:#FFFFFF;text-decoration:none">
<a id="dmI0" HREF="500main.htm">Home</a>
<a id="dmI2" HREF="tixbbs.htm" TARGET="text">For Sale</a>
<a id="dmI4" href="testlink.html">Place Ad</a>
<a id="dmI5" href="testlink.html">Sources</a>

</div>
<script type="text/javascript" src="data-deluxe-menu.js"></script>


A: If you change the menu parameters only there is no need to change code on each page. You should only replace your old data file (data-deluxe-menu.js) with the new one.

If you don't want to install your menu on each page, you can try to use frames, the menu has a cross-frame mode.
Please, see more info about cross-frame mode here:
http://deluxe-menu.com/cross-frame-mode-sample.html

Also you can use a server-side script (php, asp, vb, etc.) to generate html pages from templates on your server.


Q: I am really interested in this product but I am having difficulty adding content to the java menu bar tabs. I checked the FAQ section and followed the directions, but when I test it nothing happens and I get an error on page at the bottom.


A: See, for each item you should assign the ID property of the contentDIV (see data file with your menu parameters). You should set  var tabMode=0;

["Style Name","contentName", "", "", "", "", "1", "", "", ],
["-","", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["Style Description","contentDescription", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["-","", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["Style Variations","contentVariations", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["-","", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["Empty","", "", "", "", "", "2", "", "", ],

And on your html page you should create DIV's with such ID. You canset background image for these DIV's in styles.

<div id="contentName" style="height: 0%; visibility: hidden; background-image: url('img/back.jpg'); background-repeat:repeat-y;" class="tabPage">
<br><br><br>
<p align=center><img src="img/style01_title.gif" width=140 height=90 alt="Glass Style Tabs"></p>

<br><br><br>

You should paste your content here!!!!!
</div>

<div id="contentDescription" style="height: 0%; visibility: hidden;" class="tabPage">

<br><br><br>
<p align=center><img src="img/style01_title.gif" width=140 height=90 alt="Glass Style Tabs"></p>

Q: I have started using your menu and when testing in both IE-browsers the CPU jumps to 100% for at least 30 to 60sec.
Then the sub menu appears but also not as fast as in Firefox(no effects).

Now does my menu contains about 1476 item-lines, and I use the cross-frame modus.

Any ideas?


A: It is possible that the loading speed can be lower if the menu is very large. But it doesn't take so much time.
Yes, you can notice some delay in IE, but in over browsers it works better.
Deluxe Menu works fast, but 1500 is a large value.
I tried to create large menus on my machine: P4 3GHz, 512RAM WinXP SP2
It takes:
- 1000 items ~ 10 sec
- 2000 items ~ 40 sec

You can try to use AJAX-like technology.

Q: I played with it and I got the tabs java script horizontal menu to work. but having problems with them:

1. I want the tabs to open when you mouse over them, not when you click. Is it possible to do this?

2. I want the tabs to close when your mouse leave them. Can I do this?

3. It keeps saying "Incorrect key" when you click on them. Is it possible to fix them?

A: No, unfortunately it is not possible in Deluxe Tabs.

But you can use Deluxe Menu to create such java script horizontal menu.

To create such menu you should set the following parameters:

  var smOrientation=1; //horizontal orientation of submenus
  var subMenuAlign="pleft"; //submenu position (left align)
  var smHidePause=-1; //your submenus won't be hidden till you click orscroll the page.

"Incorrect Key" message means that you didn't paste your reg. key into data.js filewith your menu.

You should paste your key parameter into .js file where your java script horizontal menuparameters (vars) and items (  var bmenuItems) are placed.You should paste the following code at the beginning of the file:

/*
Deluxe Menu Data File
Created by Deluxe Tuner v3.2
http://deluxe-menu.com
*/

  var key="XXXXXX";

// -- Deluxe Tuner Style Names

Where XXXXX the key from your license message.
Try to clear also browser cache.

Notice your key will work on registered domain only. It won't work onlocal machine.
