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.

Q: Do your popup menus work with Dreamweaver?

A: Deluxe Menu wasn't developed as Dreamweaver/Frontpage extension and wedon't have plug-ins for it.
To install the menu into your html page:

1. create and save .js file with your menu parameters in Deluxe Tuner
2. open your .html page in Dreamweaver
3. Copy data.js file and "data.files/" folder in the same folderwith your html page.
4. add several rows of code (<script> tags).
For info see:
http://deluxe-menu.com/installation-info.html

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

<body>

<script type="text/javascript" src="data.js"></script>

That's all.

It is possible that Dreamweaver changes some paths,
so you'll havean error in the preview.
On your site or in your browser there'll be no errors.




Q: I am facing problem with deluxe tab. When a first level jscript tab is selected, sub tab of that tab should be in selected mode.

I need to change text color of "New contact" (sub tab) in selected mode to black.

A: Unfortunately Deluxe Tabs doesn't have such a feature now.

You use main tabs to show sub-tabs and click on sub-tabs to show their content or openlinks.

On the initial page load you can set the selected item and submenu item using thefollowing parameters:

  var bselectedItem=1;
  var bselectedSmItem=2;


Q: May I use this menu in Arabic mode I mean in right to left mode?

If yes please let me know how?


A: You're able to use any characters for Deluxe Menu in the same way asyou use them for standard html page.

The only issue is that submenus can be shown in incorrect positionwhen you're using dir=rtl for your page.

  var dmRTL = 0;
Set this parameter to 1 if you're using right-to-left direction of html page <HTML dir=rtl>.

Use also
  var smViewType = 2;
for right-to-left languages.

Please, see example:
http://deluxe-menu.com/ways-showing-submenus-sample.html

This examples demonstrates how the menu can change a submenusdirection. Use   var smViewType parameter to change a submenusdirection:

  var smViewType = 0..3;

Values:
0 - from left to right;
1 - from left to right + upwards;
2 - from right to left;
3 - from right to left + upwards;

In Deluxe Menu when you call data .js file you can try to specify the encoding:

<script src="data.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

Unfortunately, you can't use arabic characters in Deluxe Tuner application.You should manually correct your code.


Q: Hi, just a quick question, is it possible to change which tab is displayed when the page is first rendered.

For instance, if you have 4 tabs, going right to left, can you load the css menu tabs with the second tab being displayed first?


A: See, if you use Tab Mode
  var tabMode = 1;

  var bselectedItem = 0; //main items
  var bselectedSmItem = -1; //submenus

If you use
  var tabMode = 0;
  var bselectedItem = 0;

See, the ID of the item starts with 0.

So, if you use TabMode (  var tabMode=1;):

  var bselectedItem = 4;

["-", ] - separator, ID = 0
["Mac Tab 1", "content1"], ID = 1
["Subitem1","testlink.html",] ID = 2
["Subitem2","testlink.html",] ID = 3
["Mac Tab 2", "content2"], ID = 4 // selected tab
["Subitem1","testlink.html",] ID = 5
["Subitem2","testlink.html",] ID = 6
["Mac Tab 3", "content3"], ID = 7
["Subitem1","testlink.html",] ID = 8
["Subitem2","testlink.html",] ID = 9
["Mac Tab 4", "content4"], ID = 10
["Subitem1","testlink.html",] ID = 11
["Subitem2","testlink.html",] ID = 12

If you use tabs (  var tabMode=0;):

  var bselectedItem = 2;

["-", ] - separator, ID = 0
["Mac Tab 1", "content1"], ID = 1
["Mac Tab 2", "content2"], ID = 2 // selected tab
["Mac Tab 3", "content3"], ID = 3
["Mac Tab 4", "content4"], ID = 4
