Javascript Menu. DHTML Menu.

  • Create contextual menus for your pages. For this purpose you should assign a special function for the object you want. The current coordinates of the mouse pointer or your own ones can be used for the contextual menu.
  • When the submenu is larger than the visible area of the page the submenu will be automatically decreased. To see all the submenu items you do not need to use scrollbars or something like that - just put your mouse to the bottom of a submenu and it will be automatically scrolled! You can also specify height and width for each separate submenu.
  • Build menus completely based on Cascading Style Sheets. It is possible to appoint the individual CSS styles for separate elements of the menu.

Recent Questions

Q: I am using Deluxe Menu and I had a question.

When you roll your mouse over the menu items, the background color of that menu item changes (it becomes darker). Is there a way to establish a setting such that when a Menu Item is CLICKED, the color of that Menu Item STAYS darker. This will help the user know which category of the website they are currently visiting.

Please let me know. Thanks!


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: Can I call javascript within the drop menu javascript?

A: Yes, it is possible.
Actually you can use your own Javascript code instead standard links and html code inside item text. For example:

  var menuItems = [
["text", "javascript:your_code_here"]
];

or

  var menuitems = [
["<div onClick='urlSubstitution(\'transco/sheet.asp?stype=1\')'>Table of Contents</div>", ""]
];

Q: Can you please give me an example of how I would return the full path to the selected item of the web site menu?

A: See the following example:

function getFullPath(mInd){
  var result='';

// get pressed item
  var params = dm_ext_getMenuParams(mInd);
if (!(params[2]>=0)) return '';

function getPathForItem(mInd,smInd,itInd){
// get for this item
  var params = dm_ext_getItemParams(mInd,smInd,itInd);
  var result = params[2]+ '('+ params[3]+')';

// find root item id
if (smInd <= 0) return result;
params = dm_ext_getSubmenuParams(mInd,smInd);

for (  var smInd_=0;smInd_ for (  var itInd_=0;itInd_ itParam = dm_ext_getItemParams(mInd,smInd_,itInd_);
if (itParam[0]=arams[2])// id
return result + '->' + getPathForItem(mInd,smInd_,itInd_);
}
}
return result;
};

return getPathForItem(mInd,params[1],params[2]);
}
