Q: I do not know how to prevent IE7 or IE8 displaying a security warning for the javascript dropdown menuI have created using your software. I get the warning message when I view the menu that I have created.
A: Try to set the following options in Internet Explorer:
1) Go to 'Tools -> Internet Options -> Security'
2) Select Local Intranet and then press 'Custom level...' button.
3) Run ActiveX Controls and plug-ins = Enable
Automated Prompting for ActiveX Controls = Disable
Q: I would like to add the javascript API to a link contained in my website that will have the corresponding item in the deluxe-tree menu act as if it was "clicked".
Presumably I need to add the script (for example) <A HREF="http://deluxe-menu.com/features-info.html" TARGET="_self" "..javascriptHere ..">. Can you give me an example please of what code goes into there.
I presume I use dm_ext_setPressedItem (menuInd, submenuInd, itemInd, recursion) but where do I get the ????Ind data from and make the javascript call in the above link.
A copy of a working example together with where to get the data , perhaps on your own web pages, would help.
A: Deluxe Tree doesn't save a presseditem as it saves a tree state. It works within 1 page only and if youreload the page you should set a pressed item using Javascript API:
function dtreet_ext_setPressedItem (menuInd, itemID)
<script type="text/javascript">
var i = <?php echo $selitem; ?>;
onload=setPressed;
function setPressed()
{
dtreet_ext_setPressedItem(0,dtreet_ext_getItemIDByIndex(0, i));
}
</script>
You should define selitem using server side script.
Q: My top levels over the menu have no link and as such I need the cursor not to change when hovering over it – only change over the menus that drop down.
Please let me know how to fix this
A: Unfortunately, you can't change cursor type for different items.
But you can write so:
["< a href='http://deluxe-menu.com/'> Home ["Product Info","", , , , , "0", , , ],
["|What's New","", , , , , "0", , , ],
In all items with links you should use < a> tag.
Set this parameter:
var itemCursor="default";
Q: I am trying the menu and facing one problem…
The text is too large and doesn't wrap around.. instead it makes the javascript left menu wider.
My javascript left menu needs to be 175 px only.. if there are too many characters in the link, I like it to wrap around to the next line…
Any options?
A: You should set the following parameter:
var noWrap=0;
You can also use standard <br> tags inside item's text:
["All Card <br>Envelopes","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
