Q: Can I use just one data.js in one folder that all the pages with a dhtml popup menu point to?
A: If you don't want to create your menu on each page you can use aserver-side script
(php, asp, vb, etc.) to generate html pages fromtemplates on your server.
You can use cross frame menu.
It allows you to build full-featured menus on the pagesthat use frame-based structure.
And it's not necessary to insert any code into all the pages -just specify the additional
parameters of the menu and initialize it.
To install the menu in a cross-frame mode, see more info here:
http://www.deluxe-menu.com/cross-frame-mode-sample.htmlQ: In my previous email asking about your menu program's ability to display a different color word on a menu item when the site is on that selected page, I made a mistake - I was experimenting with Vista xp1 style, the black/blue shiny dhtml menu templates.
A: The menu has only two states normal and mouseover. We'll try to add the pressed state in the future.
You can set a pressed item using Javascript API:
function dm_ext_setPressedItem (menuInd, submenuInd, itemInd, recursion)
Sets a current pressed item.
menuInd - index of a menu on a page, >= 0.
submenuInd - index of a submenu, >= 0.
itemInd - index of an item, >=0.
recursion = true/false - highlight parent items.
But notice, to use dm_ext_setPressedItem() you should know ID of selected item and subitem.
You can't get this ID after you reload your page. That is why you should write your own code on PHP.
Q: Will the java menu api changing the node image on the fly in real time?
A: Yes, API functions will change the node image on the fly.
Q: What can you tell me about the compatibility with Yahoo SiteBuilder. I like the navigator bars they offer, but there are no drop-down menus and you seem to offer a wonderful array of options.
Please let me know if it is worth my time to give you a try.
A: Unfortunately, we don't provide support by phone, e-mail only.
Deluxe Menu wasn't developed as Dreamweaver/Frontpage/Yahoo SiteBuilder extension,BUT you can use it as standard Javascript files. To install the menuinto your html page:
1. open the page in your program
2. open html source code of the page
3. add several rows of code (<script> tags), For info see: http://deluxe-menu.com/installation-info.html
That's all.
