Q: I am currently having a look at the use of your drop down menu and was wondering if there was an option to make all of the top menu links the same size?
At current It looks like it is on a percentage increase related to the amount of text, can I change this to a fixed value no matter the text amount?
A: You can use Individual Item Style.
Use that parameter:
var itemWidth=100px
Width of an item (px, % or other units).
For example:
var itemStyles = [
["itemWidth=150"], // style 0
];
var menuItems = [
["Home", "index.html", "myicon1.gif", "myicon2.gif", "Home Page Tip", "_self", "0"], // assign style 0
["About", "about.html", "myicon3.gif", "myicon4.gif", "About Us Tip", "_self", "0"], // assign style 0
];
Q: How do I make the top nav buttons exactly the same width for each button?
Total menu width is 743px and I have 6 buttons I want the width of each button to be fixed at 123px.
I set var menuWidth="743" but it averages out the buttons based on the text.
A: You should use individual item styles. For example:
var itemStyles = [
["itemWidth=123px"], //style 0
];
var menuItems = [
["Home","testlink.html", , , , , "0", , , ], //style 0
["Product Info","", "deluxe-menu.files/icon1.gif", "deluxe-menu.files/icon1o.gif", , , "0", , , ], //style 0
Q: One intern design a menu for us using MenuTuner that we bought however Menu doesn’t work in Firefox or netscape.
It works fine in Internet Explorer.
Can you help? I’m attaching the zip file which you can extract and open index.html to see what’s wrong.
A: Try to specify units in "px".
var tmenuWidth = "230px";
It's necessary to specify exact value for Mozilla browsers. It helpsto position menus correctly.
You should set this parameter:
var tmenuHeight = "auto";
Q: I’m setting an after item image as follows (this code was generated by Deluxe Tuner, not by hand/text editor):
var afterItemImage=["designimgs/btn-ico.gif","designimgs/btn-ico-active.gif"];
var afterItemImageW=8;
var afterItemImageH=7;
As you can see, the after item image is not appearing in my access drop down menu – do you have any idea why that would be/how to fix?
A: You should create Individual style and assign it for the top access drop down menu items:
var itemStyles = [
["itemBackImage=designimgs/blank.gif,designimgs/blank.gif", "beforeItemImage=designimgs/blank.gif,designimgs/blank.gif", "afterItemImage=designimgs/btn-ico.gif,designimgs/btn-ico-active.gif", "beforeItemImageW=1","afterItemImageW=8", "beforeItemImageH=1","afterItemImageH=7","itemBorderWidth=0"],
];
