Recent Questions

Q: How does the search engine stuff work. A web developer told me to stay away from java script if you want google to recognize your webpage.
Can you comfort me by telling me how it works.


A: Spiders can't read dynamically-generated Javascript code, so theycan't read menu links.
Search engine friendly means that you can add additional html codewithin your html page. You can generate such a code using Deluxe TunerGUI that you can find in the trial menu package. But if you'll use themenu without any additional html code, spider won't see menu links.

Q: As a part-time webdeveloper I have gotten very interested in your product. I really appreciate a number of things

- it's very flexible
- it's very easy to work with
- examples nicely show the capabilities

But I have a couple of questions:

- When opening a menu, there is an option for keeping the menu-item that has been pressed hightlighed (so that the user can see what he/she pressed). Is it possible, programmatically, to decide when this highlighting should be removed? The scenario is that, when a menu-item is clicked the used might browse for a couple of pages within the context defined by the menu-item, but when the user leaves, the menu-item should no longer be highlighted. I will (programmatically) decide the context, but is it possible for me to interact with the menu, and for example decide explicitly which menu should be highlighted?
- Our design department would like the menu containing the elements: "Skovdrift, Juletreer, Skovrejsning, etc". Please notice that "Brende" is supposed to show a menu item that is hightlighted. Is is possible to create this menu such that it is dynamic and each item is text-based (and not based on two pictures for each menu-entry: hightlighted and not)? I've been wondering how to solve this problem, but I cannot figure out a solution. The problem that I is stuck at, is how organise this speciel "frame" around each menu-element. Something that be partly accomplished using "arrowImageMain", but that does not bring me all the way. Please notice that the menu-items might not have any sub-menu.


A: I suppose that you're saying about
  var pressedItem=-2;
Defines an item that will appear in the highlighted state
(-2 - normal mode, -1 - toggle mode is active, but highlighted item not defined, 0,1,2,3,... - # of pressed item including separators)

This parameter will not approach you.

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'm using the deluxe-tree; my dynamic tree menu is very long; and the page has a vertical scroll bar as a result. My question is, does the dynamic tree menu support anchors? So let's say I do mypage.aspx#mynode, and mynode is a tree-node, and happens to be on the bottom of the page, can we make it so that the user goes to that node, without him using the vertical scroll bar?

A: No, it is not possible.
But you can collapse your tree menu by default:
  var texpanded=0;

and use API functions to expand the specific items based on the page you are now:

<script>
dtreet_ext_expandItem (dtreet_ext_getItemIDByIndex (0, 0), 1);
dtreet_ext_setPressedItem (0, dtreet_ext_getItemIDByIndex (0, 1));
</script>

Q: I am just in the process of evaluating your deluxe menus product for possible purchase.  
I have installed the product and i am using the Deluxe Tuner product to create my menus based on the Vista 3-08 template.  

I save the project and it adds the .js files in the correct location ( all under Menu folder in my project), but none of the images for the top level menu are copied (btn_red.gif or btn_red2.gif).  

So when i run my website, i see the drop down menus but no header menu images (see attached image).  

What image files need copying to which location in my websites main folder?


A: When you save your menu in Deluxe Tuner (use "Save as..." or "Exportto HTML" functions) you'll get a folder with all engine files(dmenu.js, dmenu_add.js ...) and all images.

So, for Vista Style 3-08 template you'll have the following images:

arr_white.gif
arrv_white.gif
blank.gif
btn_red.gif
btn_red2.gif

You should copy folder with all these files on your server.
