Javascript Menu. DHTML Menu.

  • There can be multi level menus - create as many rows or columns of the menu as you want.
  • Use a mouse to drag a menu as a usual window. Also you can construct the menu where each submenu can be "detached" from the main menu (MSOfficeToolbarLike mode).
  • When the page is scrolled the menu remains visible. The DHTML menu can "float" along one or two coordinate axes.

Recent Questions

Q: I would like to add the javascript API to a link contained in my website that will have the corresponding item in the deluxe-tree menu act as if it was "clicked".

Presumably I need to add the script (for example) <A HREF="http://deluxe-menu.com/features-info.html" TARGET="_self" "..javascriptHere ..">. Can you give me an example please of what code goes into there.

I presume I use dm_ext_setPressedItem (menuInd, submenuInd, itemInd, recursion) but where do I get the ????Ind data from and make the javascript call in the above link.

A copy of a working example together with where to get the data , perhaps on your own web pages, would help.

A: Deluxe Tree doesn't save a presseditem as it saves a tree state. It works within 1 page only and if youreload the page you should set a pressed item using Javascript API:

function dtreet_ext_setPressedItem (menuInd, itemID)

<script type="text/javascript">

  var i = <?php echo $selitem; ?>;
onload=setPressed;
function setPressed()
{
dtreet_ext_setPressedItem(0,dtreet_ext_getItemIDByIndex(0, i));
}

</script>
You should define selitem using server side script.



Q: My question is how can I change the size and color of the font for the
main items in the simple dhtml menu, not the drop downs?


A: You can use Individual Item Styles in that case:
http://deluxe-menu.com/individual-item-styles-info.html

Set the style you need for subitems:

  var fontStyle=["normal 11px Trebuchet MS, Tahoma","normal 11px Trebuchet MS, Tahoma"];

Set the style you need for main items:

  var itemStyles = [
["fontStyle='bold 12px Arial','bold 12px Arial'"], // style 0
];

Assign this style for main items:

  var menuItems = [
["Scenic album","scenic-album.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", "", "", ], //assign style 0
 ["|Item 8","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
 ["|Item 9","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],>  ["|Item 10","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ], ["Floral album","floral-album.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", "", "", ], //assign style 0
["Southwest album","southwest-album.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", "", "", ], //assign style 0
["Wildlife album","wildlife-album.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", "", "", ], //assign style 0
];

Q: I cannot figure out how to make the text break into two lines.

A: You can use wrapping in Deluxe Menu.
Please, use <br> tag in your menuItems, for example:

"item<br>text"


Q: Can a menu item that expands the submenu items when selected also work as a link?

A: Actually you cannot use links for the top items in the XP Style.

But you can write:

["<a href='index.html' class='home'>Home</a>","", "", "", "", "Return to Index page", "", "0", "", ],
["<a href='http://www.domain.uk' class='home'>About Us</a>","", "", "", "", "", "", "0", "", ],
 ["|Introduction","http://www.domain.uk/introduction.htm", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],

And create styles
.home{
color: #FFFFFF;}
.home:hover{
color: #FFBEBE;}

But in that case the submenu and link open when you press "About Us" item. I think that it is not verygood behaviour. You can also try to specify target parameter

["<a href='index.html' class='home'>Home</a>","", "", "", "", "Return to Index page", "", "0", "", ],
["<a href='http://www.domain.uk' class='home' target="_blank">About Us</a>","", "", "", "", "", "", "0", "", ],
 ["|Introduction","http://www.domain.uk/introduction.htm", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
