Q: Could you also tell me where I should place the images I wish to use in the menu, eg arrows. When I select an image to use they are not appearing in the preview, or when I launch deluxe-menu.html?
A: Please, check images paths within data .js file.
For example, if you have data.js file here:
c:/website/data.js
and your images are stored here:
c:/website/images/
you should set image name so (for example):
var arrowImageMain = ["images/arrow1.gif", "images/arrow2.gif"];
If you use Tuner, you should save data .js file before you'll selectimages. When you save .js file it means that you set a root directoryfor the project, so Tuner can make all selected images with relativepaths.
Q: I am using Deluxe-menu 3.0.
I can add dhtml popup menu items and submenu items. Each new sub menu item is placed at the bottom of that list. How can I move it up in the listing.
For instance if my menus are:
2007
2006
2005
2004
and I add 2008 - it will be placed below 2004, but I want it at the top of the list. Each item in the list has multiple subitems, so I don't want to delete the other items to get it in the correct order.
I looked through your help file, FAQ and online questions and could not find an answer.
A: To move items select items you want and use a mouse drag'n'drop method.
To copy dhtml popup menu items select those you want and use a mouse drag'n'drop method holding a Ctrl key.
You can find this info in Tuner's help, "Main Window" sheet.
Q: I am trying to create a tab menu and I have some questions. I want a tab menu that has four tabs. Each tab is a different image, the normal and hover state uses the same image and the selected state uses a different image. This will be applied to all four tabs. All the tabs will not have any text on them because the image will already have text on it. This tab menu will not have a submenu but will use <div id> tags to populate information when a certain javascript menu master tab is selected.
I am having difficulty trying to create this type of tab menu to work with the Deluxe Tuner. Each time I try to make an image as a tab that image is applied to all javascript menu master tabs which I do not want. I want each tab to have a different image.
Please advice how I can do this.
A: If you want to use different images you should use Individual ItemStyles and assign them for your tabs.
