Q: Could you please help me with coding of the submenu box in your java script dropdown menu?
I hope you can see images I've included in this email.
I want to put a large block of text in the submenu.
Now I can do it like the code shown here and it wraps and works OK.
["Text display","", "", "", "", "", "0", "0", "", ],
["|Text Line 1 Text Line 1Text Line 1Text Line 1<br>text Line 2text Line 2text Line 2text Line 2<br>Text line 3Text line 3Text line 3Text line 3<br>text line 4text line 4text line 4text line 4text line 4", "", "", "", "", "", "", "0"],
];
The problem is that if I want a large amount of text, the line of code with text in it will be 10 miles long. Please note the line of code above isn't broken in practice. The email wraps it.
Is there any way to break the code into lines instead of one very long line?
For example:
["Text display","", "", "", "", "", "0", "0", "", ],
["|Text Line 1 Text Line 1Text Line 1Text Line 1<br>
Line 2text Line 2text Line 2text Line 2<br>
Text line 3Text line 3Text line 3Text line 3<br>
text line 4text line 4text line 4text line 4text line 4", "", "", "", "", "", "", "0"],
];
No matter what way I try It won't work
Is there a way?
A: The only way to do that is
["|Text Line 1 Text Line 1Text Line 1Text Line 1<br>"+
"Line 2text Line 2text Line 2text Line 2<br>"+
"Text line 3Text line 3Text line 3Text line 3<br>"+
"text line 4text line 4text line 4text line 4text line 4", "", "", "", "", "", "", "0"],
];
Q: I see you have a right click in expanding menu javascript, is this function available in Deluxe Menu?
A: Unfortunately, you can't assign onmouseover/onClick/onContextMenu event to each item.
However, you can achieve this by using standard html objects within items, for example:
var menuitems = [
["<div onContextMenu='your_code_here'>item text</div>", ""]
];
Q: Is there any way to keep a menu lit up when going to another page? Or do the menus always have to default back to their normal state?
I want the menu to know what page the user is on and keep that section highlighted. Any ideas?
A: You should set a pressed item using Javascript API:
function dm_ext_setPressedItem (menuInd, submenuInd, itemInd, recursion)
Sets a current pressed item.
menuInd - index of a menu on a page, >= 0.
submenuInd - index of a submenu, >= 0.
itemInd - index of an item, >=0.
recursion = true/false - highlight parent items.
But notice, to use dm_ext_setPressedItem() you should know ID of selected item and subitem.
You can't get this ID after you reload your page. That is why you should write your own code on PHP.
Q: I want to open a new html window on top of my current page – but I want the new html window to be a certain size only (800 x 400).
How do I do this? Can you give me the code so I can paste in the data file rather than the tuner?
A: You should write:
["Test Window","javascript:window.open('http://www.microsoft.com','_blank',
'height=400,width=800,top=10,left=10,status=yes,toolbar=no,menubar=no,location=no');", , ,'MonitorExceptions' , ,'', '',,],
