Q: I'm trying out your cool dropdown menu code.

I'm trying to rebuild my menu like this one

http://deluxe-menu.com/data-templates/vista-style-3-03-template-sample.html

I have a problem. In my case, I have some really long labels and some short ones. In some cases my text is larger than the button (see attachment). In your example all the buttons have the same width. Is it possible to have a Vista styled menu with different width for the buttons?

A: See images in Vista Templates have the fixed width and height (92 x 21).

If you want to change items' width/height you should change images.

btn_cyan.gif
btn_cyan2.gif

You can do it in any graph editor, for example in Adobe PhotoShop.

You should also change items width in your Individual Item Style.

  var itemStyles = [
["itemWidth=92px","itemBorderWidth=0","fontStyle=normal 11pxTahoma","fontColor=#FFFFFF,#FFFFFF","itemBackImage=btn_cyan.gif,btn_cyan2.gif"],
];

You can do it in Deluxe Tuner.



Q: Also once you click a link and go to a new page, how do you get the java choice menu tab for that new page to stay the highlighted one?

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=<?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: Can I put the icon on the left hand side of the text or does it have to be the right in the tree menu script?

A: You can put the icon as you wish on the left or right side.
You may set a alignment of icons and arrows.
To set them use these parameters:

  var ticonAlign="right";
  var texpandBtnAlign="right";

To set alignment of the top items in XP-style use:

  var tXPAlign="right";

Q: Can I use my own images as the tabs in a div tab menu?

A: The Drop down menu items have the following structure:
  var menuItems = [
[text, link, iconNormal, iconOver, tip, target, itemStyleInd, submenuStyleInd, jsFilename],
[text, link, iconNormal, iconOver, tip, target, itemStyleInd, submenuStyleInd, jsFilename],
...
];

Where iconNormal, iconOver - Icons of an item: icon in normal state, icon in mouseover state.

So you can set your menu items in a such way:

  var menuItems = [
["","testlink.htm", "icon1.gif", "icon1o.gif"],
["","", "icon2.gif", "icon2o.gif"],
 ["|","testlink.htm", "icon3.gif", "icon3o.gif"],
 ["|","testlink.htm", "icon4.gif", "icon4o.gif"],
 ["|","testlink.htm", "icon5.gif", "icon5o.gif"],
["","testlink.htm", "icon1.gif", "icon1o.gif"],
];
