Q: I have an interest in purchasing your product but wanted to ask a question to see if it would satisfy my needs. The menu samples you have are all horizontal, can your menu go vertical?
A: To create vertical menu you should set the following parameter:
var isHorizontal=0;
Please, try the trial version at first.
Q: I purchased the full package for the application. Great job!
I have no questions about generating and/or customizing DHTML menues - it's pretty straight forwards.
I am trying to find out how to generate and customize POPUP WINDOWS.
A: To assign popup windows for links on your page do the following:
1) Open your page (for example index.html page) in any text editor.
Add link in the place where you want to have it and specify the ID (for example: win1) for it, for example:
<a href="javascript:;" id="win1">Click Here to see a window</a>
Change parameters of windows in data files, for example popup-window-XP.js.
Open it in any text editor.
2) Add your content.
You can use HTML content, Iframe (url) or any object on your page as popup windows content - Object ID.
For example select HTML content (winContent parameter in the 'Common' section), for example:
<div style="text-align:center;"><b>Sample content</b></div>
This is a simple HTML code for content. Here you may also set link to content page or ID of some element.
3) In the 'Actions' section specify the id of your link (win1) for the onClick event.
4) For example: open the popup-window-XP.html file in any text editor.
Copy all code for Popup window and paste it in the beginning of the <body> tag:
...
<body>
<!-- Deluxe Popup Window -->
<noscript><a href="http://deluxepopupwindow.com">menu drop down by DeluxePopupWindow.com <script type="text/javascript" src="popup-window-XP.files/dpopupwindow.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="popup-window-XP.js"></script>
<!-- (c) 2009, DeluxePopupWindow.com -->
5) Copy 'popup-window-XP.files/' folder and popup-window-XP.js file into the samefolder with your index.html (root folder of your website).
Q: Is it possibly that menu dynamic remembers the last action if I go to previous page?(so the menu stays fault out)
I know TreeMenu does this, but I want to use DeLuxeMenu
A: Deluxe Menu doesn't save state as Deluxe Tree.
But you can set pressed item on each page with Deluxe Menu using
dm_ext_setPressedItem () funtion.

Can I break it down to 1 book for 1*.JS ? How?
A: You cannot divide your menuItems parameter.
You can only use one .js file for your menu parameters and the other.js file for your menuItems = [...];
But you can do it in two ways.
1) You can try to use several menus on the one page, for example:
param.js // file with menu parameters (all parameters before menuItems = [...];)
menu1.js // menuItems for "AC-DC", "ANLOG"
menu2.js // menuItems for "DIGITAL", "WinXP"
menu3.js // menuItems for "MS-Word", "MS-Excel"
In these menu files you should write
menuItems = [
...
];
dm_init();
Then you should install your menu in the following way
<script type="text/javascript" src="param.js"></script>
<table>
...
<script type="text/javascript" src="menu1.js"></script>
...
<script type="text/javascript" src="menu2.js"></script>
...
<script type="text/javascript" src="menu3.js"></script>
But it will be easier to use vertical menu in such case
var isHorizontal=0;
var smColumns=1;
2) You can also try to add some code, see the attached example.
In the first file (@MY books (Multiple Col.js) I write menuItems for the first item "AC-DC".
Notice that you should delete comma at the end of the last item
var menuItems = [
["AC-DC","", , , , , , , , ],
["|@Book1","testlink.htm", , , , , , , , ],
...
["|@Book3","", , , , , , , , ],
["||CH02","", , , , , , , , ],
["||CH01","", , , , , , , , ] // delete comma at the end of the last item
];
In the second file (@MY books (1.js) you should write
menuItems = menuItems.concat(
[
["ANLOG","", , , , , , , , ],
["|@Book1","", , , , , , , , ],
["|@Book2","", , , , , , , , ],
["|@Book3","", , , , , , , , ] // delete comma at the end of the last item
]
);
In the third file (@MY books (2.js) you should write
menuItems = menuItems.concat(
[
["DIGITAL","", , , , , , , , ],
["|Item 1332","", , , , , , , , ],
["WinXP","", , , , , , , , ],
["|Item 1333","", , , , , , , , ],
["MS-Word","", , , , , , , , ],
["|Item 1334","", , , , , , , , ],
["MS-Excel","", , , , , , , , ],
["|Item 1335","", , , , , , , , ] // delete comma at the end of the last item
]
);
dm_init();
Notice that you should write dm_init(); function in the last file.
In the .html file you should write
...
<tr>
<script type="text/javascript" src="@MY books (Multiple Col.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="@MY books (1.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="@MY books (2.js"></script>
</tr>
I hope you understand me.
