Q: We would need to programatically open a particular tab in the horizontal tab menu.
A: Unfortunately Deluxe Tabs doesn't support API functions now.
You can use the following function to open specific tab:
dtabs_itemClick(menuInd,itemInd);
where
menuInd - index of a tab menu on a page, >= 0.
itemInd - index of a item, >=0.
For example:
<DIV onClick="dtabs_itemClick(0,2)" style="width: 200px; border: 2px solid #000;">
Click to open the third tab
</DIV>
Q: The submenus are going up instead of down in the sub navigation bar.
A: You should set the following parameter:
var subMenuVAlign="top";
Q: I am trying to use your Deluxe-Tabs, to use on our wwebsite, and to be honest, I am not much of a developer. So please forgive me for my naпve question(s). I have been trying to get 'Content' in to the tabbed dhtml menu build, and I cannot find how that is done.
Do you have an example with all the files (html too!) that shows a simple tabbed dhtml menu build with content for each Tab that I can look at to see how it is done.
I thought I was going to be able to generate the TABs, and point them to the HTML files I want them to use, and each time I selected a tab, that page would be displayed. That does not appear to be what is happening.
Your help would be greatly appreciated.
A: You should specify any Object ID name of the DIV.
See, for each item you should assign the ID property of the contentDIV (see data file with your dhtml menu build parameters).
["Style Name","contentName", "", "", "", "", "1", "", "", ],
["-","", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["Style Description","contentDescription", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["-","", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["Style Variations","contentVariations", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["-","", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["Empty","", "", "", "", "", "2", "", "", ],
And on your html page you should create DIV's with such ID. You canset background image for these DIV's in styles.
<div id="contentName" style="height: 0%; visibility: hidden; background-image: url('img/back.jpg'); background-repeat:repeat-y;" class="tabPage">
<br><br><br>
<p align=center><img src="img/style01_title.gif" width=140 height=90 alt="Glass Style Tabs"></p>
<br><br><br>
You should paste your content here!!!!!
</div>
<div id="contentDescription" style="height: 0%; visibility: hidden;" class="tabPage">
<br><br><br>
<p align=center><img src="img/style01_title.gif" width=140 height=90 alt="Glass Style Tabs"></p>
<br><br><br>
You should paste your description here!!!!!
</div>
Q: I want to have the dhtml popup display as you mouse over an image - is this possible?
A: Yes you can do it. Use smOrientation parameter in Individual Submenu Styles:
var menuStyles = [
["smOrientation=0"], //id=0
];
Assign it to the first item in third submenu:
["Home","testlink.html", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["Product Info","", "default.files/icon1.gif", "default.files/icon1o.gif", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["|Features","testlink.html", "default.files/icon2.gif", "default.files/icon2o.gif", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["|Installation","", "default.files/icon2.gif", "default.files/icon2o.gif", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["||Description of Files","testlink.html", "default.files/icon6.gif", "default.files/icon6o.gif", "", "", "", "0", "", "", "", ],
