Q: I need to include backgroundimages for my navigation, so I put them in the same folder where the "data.js" file can be found. I am using the deluxe tuner in order to call these files and it looks great in the preview. As soon as I save the file and load it in the browser, the background images are missing.
Any solutions for this problem?


A: Now you have such paths for all your images data.files/image.gif

  var itemStyles = [
["itemWidth=128px","itemBackImage=data.files/nav01_off.gif,data.files/nav01_off.gif"],
["itemWidth=128px","itemBackImage=data.files/nav02_off.gif,data.files/nav02_off.gif"],
["itemWidth=128px","itemBackImage=data.files/nav03_off.gif,data.files/nav03_off.gif"],
["itemWidth=128px","itemBackImage=data.files/nav04_off.gif,data.files/nav04_off.gif"],
["itemWidth=128px","itemBackImage=data.files/nav05_off.gif,data.files/nav05_off.gif"],
];

But you don't have images in "data.files/" folder. That's why youcan't see them.
Please, check all your paths.

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: After I create that submenu I want to move those items up or down within that submenu in the javascript editor.


A: Do you want to move your subitems within Deluxe Tuner?

To move items select items you want and use a mouse drag'n'drop method.

To copy items select those you want and use a mouse drag'n'drop method holding a Ctrl key.
Also you can use a contextual menu - a right mouse click on the list of items.


Q: Now I need to work out how to add multiple menu's to a page? Are you able to reference these separately - is this possible.

The page that I am creating lists out notes from our system - there is a "options" button to the right of each note - when the cursor hovers over this button I want to dynamically load themenu's. On any page there could be over a 100 of these "option" buttons and the menu that would load from each option button could be different and specific to the note.


A: You can add as many menus as you want on the one page.

You should call
<SCRIPT type=text/javascript>  var dmWorkPath = "data.files/";</SCRIPT>

<SCRIPT src="data.files/dmenu.js" type=text/javascript></SCRIPT>

and then call your data files:

<SCRIPT src="data.files/data1.js" type=text/javascript></SCRIPT>

<SCRIPT src="data.files/data2.js" type=text/javascript></SCRIPT>

<SCRIPT src="data.files/data3.js" type=text/javascript></SCRIPT>

<SCRIPT src="data.files/data4.js" type=text/javascript></SCRIPT>

You can try to use pop up menus

You may also generate a menus from a database or XML using any server-side script, e.g., PHP, ASP, VB, etc.


Q: As I have stated before, your Deluxe-Menu is very very good.

But there is allways room for improvement.

Is there any chance to see support for the following in Deluxe-Menu:

When I move the mousepointer above a menuitem and right-click I would like to see in the javascript contextual menu (the context menu provided by the browser):

Open Link in new window
Open Link in new tab

If the above is not possible or not something you want to enable.... then, there should be possible to make a workaround to make this work:

I see there is support for custom javascript contextual menus.....
.... is there any possibility to make a custom context menu that show above a menuitem and that show when right clicking on the menuitem.
Should hopefully be possible to create in such way that I create one context menu in javascript (the deluxe menu way... ) , but when clicking on "Open link in new window" from that custom menu, then the JS code should call a javascript function of mine (or yours), with a parameter related to the menuitem that was right-clicked...
And this javascript function should be able to resolve the actual URL (based on the input parameter rel. to the menuitem) and then open a new window using window.open()

If not possible to implement using the native browser context menu, then I belive it should be possible to do it using my workaround how to.....
Just a thought....
Any suggestions on how I can make the workaround work, or if maybe you could support the workaround in some way in future releases of Deluxe-Menu?

A: Yes, there is a workaround.
You can write your items in the following way:
 ["|<a href='http://www.domain.com' class="link">test test test</a>",""],

You should assign style for this link.
A.link {
...
}
A.link:hover {
...
}
