Q: We are now working with Deluxe Menu and can't get our favorite template to link. It is the one you call animated-icons
The example you gave has no links, but when we try to add links to it (in the 2nd parameter of any menu item), NOTHING happens.
It's not a broken link, it just wont do ANYTHING.
A: See your menu parameters. Now you have:
var itemTarget="";
var statusString="string";
You should set this parameters:
var itemTarget="_self";
var statusString="link";
Q: I'm trying out your menus, and I seem to have a problem with changing the title of a menu item. If the text is something like "Create a New Event" the entire menu spreads out and the rollover image starts replicating itself behind it, instead fo stretching with the text. So I see 1 /2 rollover images for that top level item, instead of just the one, width it's width spread out to accomodate the extra text.
I've tried the Styles bit, but that doesn't seem to fix the rollover image any...
Any pointers ?
A: You can try to set the exact width for each menu item using IndividualItem Styles.
You should use Individual Item Styles.
For example:
var itemStyles = [
["itemWidth=120","itemBorderWidth=1","itemBorderStyle=solid,solid"], //style0
["itemWidth=100","itemBorderWidth=1","itemBorderStyle=solid,solid"], //style1
["itemWidth=130","itemBorderWidth=1","itemBorderStyle=solid,solid"], //style2
["itemWidth=150","itemBorderWidth=1","itemBorderStyle=solid,solid"], //style3
];
["Home","testlink.htm"],
["Samples","testlink.htm"],
["|Group 1","", , , , , "0", , , ],
["|Group 2","", , , , , "1", , , ],
["|Group 3","", , , , , "2", , , ],
...
[" More Samples","testlink.htm"],
["|Group 1","", , , , , "3", , , ],
["|Group 2","", , , , , "1", , , ],
Where "0", "1", "2", "3" - style number in itemStyles.
You also should check the width of your rollover image. It should bethe same width as your items.
You can also use
tags in the item text, for example:
var menuItems = [
["line 1
line 2"],
];
Or you can set this parameter:
var noWrap=0;
Try that.
Q: I have a quick question: I have an iframe menu item (see note 1) for the dhtml menu sample,
and when I click a link in that iframe, I would like to close the menu.
Is this possible, perhaps by using a javascript call?
A: You couldn't close the menu, you can only hide it.
You can try touse the following code to hide the menu.
["||test menuitem
<iframe src='test.php' onClick='document.getElementById(\'dm0m0\').style.visibility=\'hidden\';'
></iframe>","", , , , ,"0" , , , ],
You can also place your Iframe in DIV tag with indents.
["||test menuitem
<div style='padding: 10px;'><iframesrc='test.php'
onClick='document.getElementById(\'dm0m0\').style.visibility=\'hidden\';'></iframe></div>","", , , , ,"0" , , , ],
Q: I 've faced problem in new version v3 of dhtml menu generator.
The problem is visualization of cyrillic fonts I took my js file - just edited it ( adding one menu item) and saved.
I think it's not just browser problem because if reopen js in deluxe menu we can see unreadable text. There are no such problems in V2.4.
A: Yes, this problem was fixed in the new version of dhtml menu generator.
Download the new version from the same link in your license messageand install it.
You should use UTF-8 encoding in that case.
