Q: One other issue I'm having is that the content for the menu bar in java "selected tab" on my site does not show up in IE7. Works fine in firefox, though. Any ideas about that?
A: Try to delete height: 0%; parameter from the styles:
<div id="content1" style="height: 0%; visibility: hidden;" class="tabPage">
So you'll have:
<div id="content1" style="visibility: hidden;" class="tabPage">Q: I downloaded the tuner and am testing the file prior to purchasing. Is there a way to set up categories and beneath those categories there are subitems...then depending on what page I am on in the website, the appropriate category and subitems automatically show up in the javascript tree view menu?
If so, can you please tell me where and how to setup a menu if it's just changing a variable. Maybe you have an example of the web?
Here's an example of what we are needing. If you open your website http://deluxe-tree.com/samples-sample.html there are 2 sep. menus, one at the top and one on the side.
If I click Samples on the top menu, the samples submenu should automatically expand on the javascript tree view menu. How would I set this up?
A: See how you should highlight and expand the selected items here:

I'm sending you the example.Q: How can I from javascript code change a displayed tab selection to another one in the dynamic menu tabs... lets say from first tab to the third tab?
A: This Tabs menu can save pressed item automatically within1 page only.
If you open another page, the menu can't remember presseditem.
You should do that manually using Javascript and menu parameters
( var bselectedItem and var var bselectedSmItem) or using any server-side script (php, asp, etc.)
Deluxe Tabs doesn't support API functions which can return theselected tab.
If your site is written on PHP you can set "bselectedItem" and "varbselectedSmItem" parameters
based on your link beforeyou call your data file.
For example, move "bselectedItem" and " var bselectedSmItem" parametersfrom your data file to your code.
<TD vAlign=top align=left>
/* Select Tab */
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript1.2">
var bselectedItem=<?php echo $seltabs; ?>;
var bselectedSmItem=<?php echo $selsmtabs; ?>;
</script>
<SCRIPT src="data.js" type=text/javascript></SCRIPT>
</TD>
You should define seltabs and selsmtabs using server side script.
You can also set it on every page before you call data.js file, forexample:
<TD vAlign=top align=left>
/* Select Tab */
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript1.2">
var bselectedItem=4;
var bselectedSmItem=3;
</script>
<SCRIPT src="data.js" type=text/javascript></SCRIPT>
</TD>
Try that.
Q: Thank you for your help, I have downloaded the updated link the .js files are there. I have been using the tuner and was wondering how to change the colors of the main menu bar. I have selected a template that we like (Vista 3, #5), but it isn't quite the right shade of green. I have figured out how to change the colors of all of the "sub" menus, but I don't see where to change the main menu bar. Is this possible, if so, where do I make the change(s)?
A: Top menu items in Vista styles use images as backgrounds. You cannotchange its color in Deluxe Tuner.
You should change the image color. You can do it in any Graph Editor,for example PhotoShop.
