Javascript Menu. DHTML Menu.

  • Create contextual menus for your pages. For this purpose you should assign a special function for the object you want. The current coordinates of the mouse pointer or your own ones can be used for the contextual menu.
  • When the submenu is larger than the visible area of the page the submenu will be automatically decreased. To see all the submenu items you do not need to use scrollbars or something like that - just put your mouse to the bottom of a submenu and it will be automatically scrolled! You can also specify height and width for each separate submenu.
  • Build menus completely based on Cascading Style Sheets. It is possible to appoint the individual CSS styles for separate elements of the menu.

Q: I am using deluxe menus and have a problem with images not downloading when the page loads. Is there a way to instruct the menus to preload the images instead of waiting until a person mouse overs the basic drop down menu for the first time?

I am using images that are called via stylesheet.

A: Please try to add the following basic drop down menu parameter:

  var dm_writeAll = 1;



Q: Is there a way to hide a javascript top menu options using either CSS or the java api based on the site user?

(I use ColdFusion for scripting)

A: Deluxe Menu supports Javascript API.
You can find more info here:

http://deluxe-menu.com/dynamic-functions-sample.html

You can try to use API functions in that case:

function dm_ext_changeItemVisibility (menuInd, submenuInd, itemInd, visibility)

To disable items you should set the target parameter to "_".

You can try to use the following function

function disable() {
dm_ext_changeItem(0, 1, 1, ["", "", "", "", "", "_"]);
}
to disable your items.



Q: The AJAX sample for tree menu script on website does not have any styling applied at the moment.
I am assuming that it would support full styling with AJAX as well.
Is this correct?

A: You can use any style and templates for the AJAX sample.
Create a menu and set style you need using Individual Item Styles.
To enable AJAX Tree Menu use the following menu parameters:

  var tajax=1;

Then set your menu in such way:

  var tmenuItems = [

["Deluxe Tree: XP Style","", "", "", "", "XP Title Tip", "", "0", "", "data-samples/data-ajax5.js", ],
["+Samples Gallery","", "", "", "", "XP Title Tip", "", "0", "0", "", ],
 ["|Samples Block 1","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "data-samples/data-ajax.js", ],
 ["|Samples Block 2","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "data-samples/data-ajax.js", ],
 ["|Samples Block 3","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "data-samples/data-ajax.js", ],
];

Each .js file must contain menuItems variable for the submenu in the following format:

  var tmenuItems = [

[text, link, icon1, icon2, icon2, tip, target, itemStyle, submenuStyle, jsFileName],
];

Where jsFileName - .js filename on the server that contains tmenuItems variable for the submenu.
For example:

  var tmenuItems = [

["Home","testlink.htm", "", "", "", "Home Page Tip", "", "", "", "", ],
["Product Info","", "", "", "", "Product Info Tip", "", "", "", "data-samples/data-ajax2.js", ],
["Samples","", "", "", "", "Samples Tip", "", "", "", "data-samples/data-ajax4.js", ],
["Purchase","testlink.htm", "", "", "", "Purchase Tip", "", "", "", "", ],
["Support","", "", "", "", "Support Tip", "", "", "", "", ],
 ["|Write Us","mailto:[email protected]", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
];
