Q: I intend to purchase a copy of Deluxe menu where I will be using tree menu for a project. I have created the tree describing the menu and copied the data.Files folder, data.js file to the area where the HTML page is and pasted the relevant text into html file.
When opening the page, the tree menu in javascript is not displayed. Can you please help me resolve this problem. I have attached the data.files folder (in zipped form), the data.js file and the html page I am using
A: Now you have the following code on your html page:
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<script type="text/javascript" src="data.files/dtree.js"></script>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
</BODY>
</HTML>
It is not correct you should install the menu in the following way:
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<script type="text/javascript"> var tWorkPath="data.files/";</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="data.files/dtree.js"></script>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
<script type="text/javascript" src="data.files/data.js"></script>
</BODY>
</HTML>
You can use "Export to HTML" function in Deluxe Tuner.
Q: At the first time arrow images are loaded successfully in the menu, That time I click the menu and open a new page in crossframe.
After that I try to open new page from Main Menu, the arrow images are not displayed in the Sub-menus.
A: Thanks for your interest in our products.
You can use additional parameters to make menu paths absolute:
var pathPrefix_img = "http://domain.com/images/";
var pathPrefix_link = "http://domain.com/pages/";
These parameters allow to make images and links paths absolute.
For example:
var pathPrefix_img = "http://domain.com/images/";
var pathPrefix_link = "http://domain.com/pages/";
var menuItems = [
["text", "index.html", "icon1.gif", "icon2.gif"],
];
So, link path will be look so:
http://domain.com/pages/index.html
Images paths will be look so:
http://domain.com/images/icon1.gif
http://domain.com/images/icon2.gif
Please, try to use these parameters.
Q: What do you recommend for "remembering" the tab in the js tab menu,
so that when the page reloads the correct tab is highlighted.
A: Deluxe Tabs doesn't support API functions which can return theselected tab aslo.
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=^lt;?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: Hello I am trying out deluxe menus. Fantastic piece of software - however the test menu I have created only works fine when I upload to an area outside the restricted area (i.e members area) of my server. Inside this area and it does not appear. Is that becuse I am using the trial version?
A: Thanks for your interest in our products.
No, it is not the reason. Trial version has full functionality.
