Q: I am having trouble changing a template of dhtml drop down menu code. I am using the
http://deluxe-menu.com/data-templates/image-based-1-template-sample.html,
and I want to add more items to the top menu, however when I add an item, it doesn't follow the format of the existing items.
A: See, we use Individual Item Styles for the top items in this template.
For, example select the "CONTACTS" item on the main window.
In the "Item Parameters" window you can see Individual Styles assignedfor this item:
Item Style - Style1
Icons / Normal - images/spacer.gif
When you add the new item you should assign Individual Styles for itand add icon in the same way.
That is all.
Q: Is there a way to specify certian font styles escpecailly a hanging indent on the text of the javascript menu scroll?
A: You should use Individual styles, for example:
var itemStyles = [
["fontStyle=bold 12px Arial,Helvetica", "fontDecoration=none,underline"], // style 0
["fontStyle=normal 12px Arial,Helvetica", "fontDecoration=underline,underline"], // style 1
["fontStyle=normal 14px Arial,Helvetica", "fontDecoration=none,none"], // style 2
];
And assign styles to your items:
var menuItems = [
["1 Item","index.php","","","","_self","0",,,],
["2 Item","","","","","_self","1",,,],
["|Submenu Item","","","","","_self","2",,,],...
Q: I downloaded the trial version of deluxe-menu.
I created a four tab menu using the tab'stab menu generator; so far so good.
I read the tutorial where to past codeand ensuring all items wire in the menudir/; so far so good. The problem, you talk about two> files 'dmenu.js' & 'data.js', these files were not created bydeluxe-menu program.
Where are they, so that I can see if this thing works before buying, so far; not so good.
A: You may have another name for your data file (not data.js).
If you want to use tab menu you'll have dtabs.js engine file and data file.
1. create and save .js file with your menu parameters in Deluxe Tuner(you can use "File/Save as/HTML" function).
You can enter any name you like, for example enter "tab". So you'llhave tab.html, tab.js files and "tab.files" folder with all menu files.
2. open your .html page in any text editor
3. Copy generated tab.js file and "tab.files/" folder in the same folderwith your index.html page.
4. Open generated menu.html in any text editor and copy several rows of code (<script> tags), For info see:http://deluxe-tabs.com/product-info/?installation
