Q: Hi - I'm using Deluxe Tuner/Menu version 2.0 and wanted to know if it's possible to set the status bar messages to something other than the link text from the menu items that it currently picks up?
A: You should set parameter:
statusString="tip";
Text in a browser's status bar when you put a pointer over an item. Values:
"link" - show item link;
"text" - show item text;
"tip" - show item tip.
With another value shows specified value.
Info about this parameter you can find here

Q: Hi there. I am evaluating your tabs before I purchase and I ran into a small problem. If I can get this resolved I am ready to purchase.
I need to be able to execute some javascript when I click on a tab. What I am planning on doing is I want to dynamically set the location.href property of an iFrame located inside of a content div.
I can't figure out how to do it. Any help will go a long way for me to decide to purchase. Thanks!
A: You can use your own javascript functions in the menu items.
You should paste "javascript:some_function()" into item's link field, for example:
["tab text","javascript: window.open('test.html', 'frameName')", ...],
or
["tab text","javascript: getURLForFrame()", ...],
Try that.
Q: I've noticed something strange in the Deluxe Tree and I am wondering if this is normal.
Here's an example I have in my "data.js" file to populate the javascript ajax tree:
var tmenuItems = [
["Mes alertes/My alerts","", "", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["|Francais","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "js/AjaxTreeFr.js", ],
["|English","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "js/AjaxTreeEn.js", ],
];
Here's basically how it goes:
- Basically the "0" represents a pre-built style that I have set for the root of my tree.
- Under this are the first child of the root called "Francais" and "English" which I link with a JS file to populate (Because the users will customize the alerts they want to see).
This works perfectly fine. But it is a workaround. Let me explain what I wanted in the first place:
var tmenuItems = [
["Mes alertes ","", "", "", "", "", "", "0", "", " js/AjaxTreeFr.js ", ],
["My alerts","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "js/AjaxTreeEn.js", ],
];
Basically I wanted to have 1 javascript ajax tree with 2 root items "Mes alertes" and "My alerts" but it seems impossible to attach a js file to the root of the tree view. (It doesn't get populated).
Any ideas?
A: See AJAX feature won't work for first-level in XP style now.
It works if you use:
var tXPStyle=0;
Q: I don't understand why this isn't working right. I haven't messed with the files in a long time now but someone wrote me an email saying I’ve had incorrect copyright on the javascript dropdown menu for a long time.
A: "Incorrect Copyright" means that the script can't find required copyright parameters.
To avoid this, please, change:
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript1.2" src="dmenu.js"></script>
to:
