Javascript Menu. DHTML Menu.

  • Setup menu parameters manually or using De Luxe Tuner. Then add some rows of a code within html page code and your menu is ready!
  • Use special Java Script methods for: Dynamic changing of items (link, text, icons, arrows and even individual style!). Addition/removing of items or submenus. Disabling and enabling menu items. Getting the info on every submenu, menu, and items. Changing appearance of items. Other coding tricks.

  • Ability to handle the menu from the keyboard via keystrokes.

Q: My office-colleague gilles petremand just bought your "deluxe menu" and all-in-all it looks great!!!!

What we don't manage to do is to create a moving java menu sample based on.

Is this only possible with the "ms office toolbar-like mode" 'coz we'd like to use the image based menue template and change it to a moving one - POSSIBLE?!?

A: To create a movable or floatable menu you should set severalparameters in your data file only.

See more info here:
http://deluxe-menu.com/movable-menu-sample.html
To create movable menu you should set the following parameters:
//--- Movable Menu
  var movable=1;
  var moveWidth=12;
  var moveHeight=20;
  var moveColor="#AA0000";
  var moveImage="movepic2x20.gif";
  var moveCursor="move";
  var smMovable=1;
  var closeBtnW=13;
  var closeBtnH=16;
  var closeBtn="closebtn.gif";

http://deluxe-menu.com/floatable-menu-sample.html
To create floatable menu you should set the following parameters:
//--- Floatable Menu
  var floatable=1;
  var floatIterations=6;

Q: How do I set just one drop down menu hyperlink to open in a new window when the rest is set to _self?

A: You can set item's target for each item individually:

["Home","testlink.htm", "default.files/icon1_s.gif", "default.files/icon1_so.gif", "", "Home Page Tip", "_blank", "", "", "", ],



Q: Hello. We need some tech support regarding our deluxe menu.

All of our pages that have the menu code on them are suddenly giving status bar errors that say: "Done, but with errors on page"

When pulling up the error details, the dialog says:

Line: 2
Char: 1
Error: Syntax error
Code: 0

On pages that do not have the menu at all, we're not getting the error.


A: Now you have such code:

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="" type="text/javascript">
<!--

  var dmWorkPath = "menu/";

function MM_preloadImages() { //v3.0
  var d=document; if(d.images){ if(!d.MM_p) d.MM_p=new Array();
  var i,j=d.MM_p.length,a=MM_preloadImages.arguments; for(i=0; i if (a[i].indexOf("#")!=0){ d.MM_p[j]=new Image; d.MM_p[j++].src=a[i];}}
}
//-->
</SCRIPT>

So, your menu cannot find   var dmWorkPath = "menu/"; parameter on yourpage.

Try to write your code in the following way:

<SCRIPT type="text/javascript">  var dmWorkPath = "menu/";</script>
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="" type="text/javascript" src="menu/dmenu.js"></SCRIPT>

Q: I purchased your menu and I am currently using it. I was trying to use the vista template with the images. Yet when I have an js dropdown menu item that is a little long in text the image breaks in to two buttons. Is there a way to fix this or is that just the way it is with these templates?

A: Images in Vista Templates have the fixed width and height (92 x21):

  var itemStyles = [
["itemWidth=92px","itemHeight=21px","itemBackColor=transparent,transparent","itemBorderWidth=0", "fontStyle=normal 11pxTahoma","fontColor=#3A3A3A,#000000", "itemBackImage=data-vista-2-04.files/btn_olive.gif,data-vista-2-04.files/btn_white.gif"],
];

When items text is too long you can have such effect.

You can try to use combined background for your items, for example:

  var beforeItemImage = [,]; //left-side image for normal and mouse over state
  var itemBackImage = [,]; //background or image for normal and mouse over state
  var afterItemImage = [,]; //right-side image for normal and mouse over state
  var beforeItemImageW = '';
  var afterItemImageW = '';
  var beforeItemImageH = '';
  var afterItemImageH ='';

But you should create a small images in any Graph Editor, for example:
button_n_back.gif
button_n_left.gif
button_n_right.gif
button_o_back.gif
button_o_left.gif
button_o_right.gif
