Q: I am trialing your tab menus at the moment and plan to use them on my website. I think they are excellent. I have been trying to work something out and hope you can help me. I have a nice menu set up, and want to change web pages when one of the tabs is clicked. How can the new page have the same java jump menu, but with a different tab activated? I can only seem to get this to work with a menu on a page that goes nowhere. I would have to pass a new value to bselectedItem but I don't know how.

A: Deluxe Tabs doesn't support API functions which can return theselected tab.

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>

Try that.



Q: I need to be able to set backcolor of selected menu item of the current page in the dhtml collapse menu. Is there a way to do this?

A: No, unfortunately now you can set the font color for the pressed menu itemonly. We'll try to add more parameters to the pressed item in the nextversion of the dhtml collapse menu.



Q: There's no explanation of what to do after creating a dhtml menu example or where to paste the code, which files to upload..

A: 1. Create your menu in Deluxe Tuner.

When you open Deluxe Tuner you can click "File/New"
and add items and subitems using buttons "Add Item" and "Add Subitem" on
the main window.
You should set items and subitems parameters on the "Item Parameters"window.
See also other parameters for the menu on the main window.

More info about menu parameters you can find on our site

http://deluxe-tree.com/parameters-info.html
http://deluxe-tree.com/menu-items-info.html

You can also use Individual Styles for items and subitems

http://deluxe-tree.com/individual-item-styles-info.html
http://deluxe-tree.com/individual-submenu-styles-info.html

2. You should install the menu on your page.
You can click, for example, File/Export to HTML (you can't do it inthe MAC version).
Save your data file.
Add several rows into your html page.

<head>
...
<!-- Deluxe Menu -->
<noscript><a href="http://deluxe-menu.com">Javascript Menu by Deluxe-Menu.com</a></noscript>
<script type="text/javascript">  var WorkPath="deluxe-menu.files/";</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="deluxe-menu.files/dmenu.js"></script>
...
</head>

<body>
...
<table>
&tr><td>%lt;script type="text/javascript" src="deluxe-menu.files/data.js"></script></td></tr> //data.js - data file created in Deluxe Tuner.
</tablegt;
...
</body>

You should also copy all engine files
dmenu.js
dmenu4.js
dmenu_add.js
dmenu_dyn.js
dmenu_key.js
dmenu_cf.js
dmenu_popup.js
dmenu_ajax.js
dmenu_search.js

into "deluxe-menu.files/" folder. You should place this folder in the
same folder with your index.html page.

Try that.



Q: I need to know how to have the background in the main menutransparent, and then the sub-menu/s a different translucent color.
Or, the background for the main menu one color, and the sub-menu/s a different color..

A: To set transparent background for the menu you should set:

  var menuBackColor="transparent";
  var itemBackColor=["transparent","transparent"];

and use Individual Item Styles for your submenus:

  var itemStyles = [
["itemBackColor=#8EE8E1,#26BBB0"], //style0
["itemBackColor=#F4B7FB,#E65AF5"], //style1
];

  var menuItems = [
