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.

Recent Questions

Q: Do you have any working examples of a menu generated using .php from a MySQL database?

Our website is dynamic from a MySQL db and we already have categories and sub-categories. It would be useful if we could use this with our deluxe menu.

I don't know how to set this up, so any assistance would be appreciated.


A: You may generate a menu from a database or XML using any server-side script, e.g., PHP, ASP, VB, etc.
However, these scripts don't work inside of Javascript .js files, so, you should move parameters of a menu from a .js file into an html-page, e.g.:

<!-- Deluxe Menu -->
<noscript><a href="http://deluxe-menu.com">Javascript Menu by Deluxe-Menu.com</a></noscript>
<script type="text/javascript">  var dmWorkPath = "menudir/";</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="menudir/dmenu.js"></script>
<!-- (c) 2006, http://deluxe-menu.com -->

<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript1.2">
// and describe parameters of a menu
  var parameter1=value1;
  var parameter2=value2;
etc.

  var menuItems = [
// here you generate items using server-side scripts (php, asp, vb, etc.)
];</script>

The example of the menu working with PHP/MYSQL you can find here:

Q: It seems like that I'm unable to pull data from Word, Excel, JPG's etc into the floating window?

A: You can use the following content for the popup window:
Iframe(url);
Object_id;
text(html content).

So, to add image/text inside the popup window you should set:

winContent - Html Content
and add the following tag.
<img src="images/img.jpg" alt="screen">
<p align="right"> Text text .... </p>

To add content from the excel file you can export it to html file andthen set the following parameter:
winContent - Iframe(url)
data.html
and then enter the name of the html file with your excel data




Q: How do I open a PDF document in a new window?  Is this in the Item Parameters window?

A: You can specify target parameter for each item
 ["|Open file","file.pdf", "", "", "", "_blank", "", "", "", ],

If you want to use context menu you can try to write your menuItems in the following way:
 ["|<a href='file.pdf' target='_blank'>Open file</a>","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],

But you should create correct style for <a> tag.



Q: Some menu entries may be disabled and clicking on them should produce predefined javascript alert message?


A: To create disabled items you should set "_" symbol in the targetparameter of the menuItems.
If the target is "_" the item is disabled.
You can assign a font color for all disabled items using the following menu parameter:
  var fontColorDisabled = "#AAAAAA";
You can write a javascript code instead of an item link:

["item text", "javascript:alert('Hello World')", , , ,"_",]

That's all.
