Q: I have not been able to get the dhtml context menu - or any other Javascript - to appear. I use FrontPage2000. Any ideas?
A: See how you should install Deluxe Menu on your pages.
Deluxe Menus weren't developed as Dreamweaver/Frontpage extension,BUT you can use it as standard Javascript files. To install the dhtml context menuinto your html page:
1. open the page in your program 2. open html source code of the page 3. add several rows of code (<script> tags), For info see: http://deluxe-tree.com/installation-info.html
That's all.
It is possible that Dreamweaver changes some paths, so you havean error in the preview. On your site or in your browser there'll be no errors.
Create your menu in Deluxe Tuner application. You can create any dhtml context menu as you like in Deluxe Tuner.
2. You should install the menu on your page. You can click, for example, File/Export to HTML (you can't do it inthe MAC version).
Add several rows into your html page.
<head> ... <!-- Deluxe Menu --> <noscript><a href="http://deluxe-menu.com">dhtml context menu by Deluxe-Menu.com</a></noscript> <script type="text/javascript"> var dmWorkPath="deluxe-menu.files/";</script> <script type="text/javascript" src="deluxe-menu.files/dmenu.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="data-deluxe-menu.js"></script> //data-deluxe-menu.js - data file created in Deluxe Tuner. ... </head>
You should also copy all engine files dmenu.js dmenu4.js dmenu_add.js dmenu_dyn.js dmenu_key.js dmenu_cf.js dmenu_popup.js dmenu_ajax.js into "deluxe-menu.files/" folder. You should place this folder in thesame folder with your index. html page.
Q: Just purchased the license for deluxe-menu.
The javascript submenu do not go over top of my other elements like the FAQ says it should.
A: Now you have the following style Z-INDEX: 2000; for .titleTopCenterDIV.
The menu has lower index in that case.
Try to set it to Z-INDEX: 10;

Q: We can't figure out how to implement javascript tabs navigation into our web site.
A:See in Deluxe Tabs there are two modes:
1. var tabMode=0; You can create only one level of tabs and assign Object Id's of the DIV's to show when you click on the tab.
You can use Object ID as well as Link in both modes. Use the following prefixes within item's link field: "object:" - means that there is object id after it; "link:" - means that there is a link after it. "javascript:" - means that there is a javascript code after it, for example:javascript:alert(\'Hello!\')
