Q: Is it possible via code customization to remove the border only forthe top level of js dropdown menu?
A: You can use Individual Item Style in that case.
You should create Individual Style, for example:
var itemStyles = [
["itemBorderStyle=none,none"], // style 0
];
And assign it for top items:
var menuItems = [
["Home","testlink.html", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", "", "", ], // assign style 0
["Product Info","", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", "", "", ], // assign style 0
["|Features","testlink.html", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],

["|Sample 2 is Disabled","testlink.html", "", "", "", "_", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["Contact Us","testlink.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", "", "", ], // assign style 0
];

Q: As I have stated before, your Deluxe-Menu is very very good.
But there is allways room for improvement.
Is there any chance to see support for the following in Deluxe-Menu:
When I move the mousepointer above a menuitem and right-click I would like to see in the javascript contextual menu (the context menu provided by the browser):
Open Link in new window
Open Link in new tab
If the above is not possible or not something you want to enable.... then, there should be possible to make a workaround to make this work:
I see there is support for custom javascript contextual menus.....
.... is there any possibility to make a custom context menu that show above a menuitem and that show when right clicking on the menuitem.
Should hopefully be possible to create in such way that I create one context menu in javascript (the deluxe menu way... ) , but when clicking on "Open link in new window" from that custom menu, then the JS code should call a javascript function of mine (or yours), with a parameter related to the menuitem that was right-clicked...
And this javascript function should be able to resolve the actual URL (based on the input parameter rel. to the menuitem) and then open a new window using window.open()
If not possible to implement using the native browser context menu, then I belive it should be possible to do it using my workaround how to.....
Just a thought....
Any suggestions on how I can make the workaround work, or if maybe you could support the workaround in some way in future releases of Deluxe-Menu?
A: Yes, there is a workaround.
You can write your items in the following way:
["|<a href='http://www.domain.com' class="link">test test test</a>",""],
You should assign style for this link.
A.link {
...
}
A.link:hover {
...
}Q: I can't seem to get the floating function to work for a image tab menu.
A: Notice, your tree menu won't float with relative position. You shouldset:
var tabsolute=1;Q: Can you provide an example of how to dynamically change the menu items at runtime for the dropdown menus?
(asp is fine, but if it needs to javascript that is also ok)
A: 1) You can use API functions to affect items dynamically:
http://deluxe-menu.com/functions-info.html
2)Generate your menu items dynamically from database.
Unfortunately we don't have working example with ASP.
You may generate a menu from a database or XML using any server-side script, e.g., PHP, ASP, VB, etc.
However, these scripts don't work inside of Javascript .js files, so,
you should move parameters of a menu from a .js file into an html-page, e.g.:
<!-- Deluxe Menu -->
<noscript><a href="http://deluxe-menu.com">Javascript Menu by Deluxe-Menu.com</a></noscript>
<script type="text/javascript" src="menudir/dmenu.js"></script>
<!-- (c) 2008, http://deluxe-menu.com -->
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript1.2">
// and describe parameters of a menu
var parameter1=value1;
var parameter2=value2;
etc.
var menuItems = [
// here you generate items using server-side scripts (php, asp, vb, etc.)
];
</script>
The example of the menu working with PHP/MYSQL you can find here:
