Q: The popup menu gives the (first) menu of the top menu. I need of course for this to be the menu of the popup.
A: Installation of your menu is not correct.
Now you have:
1) There is no need to call dmenu_popup.js file. You should delete thefollowing line:
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript1.2" src="dmenu_popup.js"></script>
2) Where you call source_pop.js file for Popup menu?
You should add:
<SCRIPT language=JavaScript1.2 src="menu_files/source_pop.js"type=text/javascript></SCRIPT>
3) The ID of your Popup menu is 1. Now you have ID - 0.
<img src="testimage.gif" width="200" height="200" onClick="return dm_popup(0, 9000, event);" style="cursor:hand;">
you should write:
<img src="testimage.gif" width="200" height="200" onClick="returndm_popup(1, 9000, event);" style="cursor:hand;">
Q: Do you have a template example of creating menu javascripts using data stored in a database?
A: You may generate a menu from a database or XML using any server-side script, e.g., PHP, ASP, VB, etc.
However, these scripts don't work inside of Javascript .js files,
so, you should move parameters of a menu from a .js file into an html-page, e.g.:
<!-- Deluxe Menu -->
<noscript><a href="http://deluxe-menu.com">Javascript Menu by Deluxe-Menu.com</a></noscript>
<script type="text/javascript"> var dmWorkPath = "menudir/";</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="menudir/dmenu.js"></script>
<!-- (c) 2006, http://deluxe-menu.com -->
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript1.2">
// and describe parameters of a menu
var parameter1=value1;
var parameter2=value2;
etc.
var menuItems = [
// here you generate items using server-side scripts (php, asp, vb, etc.)
];
</script>
The example of the menu working with PHP/MYSQL you can find here:
http://deluxe-menu.com/rq-loading-bar-MySQL-support.htmlQ: Very interested by your product, I want to know, before buy, if I can call javascript function when the user click on a menu Items;
you have this example, but I want the possibility to call a javascript function in the client side :
var menuItems = [
[text, "javascript:alert('Hello, world!')", icon1, icon2],
];
Is it possible, if yes could you give the sample, because Milovic menu have a javascript:function call, what about your product ?
Thank you for the answer.
A: You're able to use Javascript for each item, for example:
var menuitems = [
["item text", "javascript:your_code_here"]
];
Unfortunately, you can't assign onmouseover/onClick event to each item.
However, you can achieve this by using standard html objects within items, for example:
var menuitems = [
["<div onClick='your_code_here'>item text</div>", "index.html"]
];
Unfortunately we don't have such example.
Q: I never succeed to see the images in the dhtml menu examples using my default folder hierarchy (ie : a folder for the html files and a folder for the js files). The only way for me was to create the data.files folder in the html folder. It works but it does not follow my production standard. Did I forget something ?
A: You should set relative paths according to your html page.
For example, you have such file structure:
web-content/
data/
dmenu.js
data.js
Artwork/
image.gif
...
pages/
1.html // page with the dhtml menu examples
2.html // page with the dhtml menu examples
...
So in Deluxe Tuner you should open image.gif file.
You will have, for example:
d:\webpages\site\web-content\Artwork\image.gif
Then you should delete "d:\webpages\site1\web-content\" and add ../prefix. The path will be:
../Artwork/image.gif
You can also set path_prefix
var pathPrefix_img = "../Artwork/";
Or you can try to use absolute paths, for example:
var pathPrefix_img = "http://domain.com/images/";
