Q: I need to load a tab page and have the correct javascript menu rollover tab showing based on a variable that is available when the page loads. How do I get the tab to change to a different tab then the one defined in the configuration file?
Example
bmenuItem = 0; /* this is the default */
When my page reloads I want bmenuItem = someVariable;
How do I do this?
A: Deluxe Tabs doesn't support API functions which can return theselected javascript menu rollover tab.
You can set "bselectedItem" and " var bselectedSmItem" parametersbased on your link before you call your data file.
For example, move " var bselectedItem" and " var bselectedSmItem" parametersfrom your data file to your code.
<TD vAlign=top align=left>
/* Select Tab */
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript1.2">
var bselectedItem=<?php echo $seltabs; ?>;
var bselectedSmItem=<?php echo $selsmtabs; ?>;
</script>
<SCRIPT src="data.js" type=text/javascript></SCRIPT>
</TD>
You should define seltabs and selsmtabs using server side script.
You can also set it on every page before you call data.js file, forexample:
<TD vAlign=top align=left>
/* Select Tab */
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript1.2">
var bselectedItem=4;
var bselectedSmItem=3;
</script>
<SCRIPT src="data.js" type=text/javascript></SCRIPT>
</TD>
Q: How can I have two menus dhtml under each other using the float option? So that do not collide with each other?
A: You can try to adjust the following parameters to the one menu:
var floatableDX=15;
var floatableDY=15;
Q: The dhtml floating menu does not align to the top of the column and it migrates as one scrolls up or down the page. I would like it to stay in one place.
A: 1) Add valign="top"> parameter for the TD tag with the menu:
<td valign="top">
<script type="text/javascript" src="welcome_files/frenchdata.js"></script>
2) Open your frenchdata.js file in any text editor (or Deluxe Tuner) and change:
var absolutePos=0;
var posX="20px";
var posY="120px";
to
var absolutePos=0;
var posX="0px";
var posY="0px";
3) To turn off the floating feature you should set the following parameter in yourfrenchdata.js file:
var floatable=0;
Q: Are these cool html scripts compatible with .NET?
A: Yes, Deluxe Menu works in .NET.
Deluxe Menu is a Javascript product. It means that it works on aclient side and it doesn't work on a server side as ASP.NET script.
So, you can create the menu using standard html page and them movemenu code within .asp page.
