Q: I need to work it with PHP/MySQL. I have found some information on it in your Support section, but have problems to understand and wonder if you have more information or a working sample of the loading bar with PHP/ MySQL.

A: Info about generating menu (menu items )from a database, please, see:

http://deluxe-menu.com/generate-menu-from-database-xml-php-asp-vb-support.html
Please, see the example of .php file.
The content of .php file depends on your database structure.


<?php

// The example for PHP/MySQL.
// MySQL database has the table "menuTable" that contains data for menu items.
// The table has the following fields:
// 1. "text" - item text
// 2. "link" - item link
// 3. "icon1" - item icon (normal state)
// 4. "icon2" - item icon (mouseover state)
function getMenuItems()
{
$jsItems = '';

// Select all records from table "menuTable"
$allItems = mysql_query('SELECT * FROM menuTable;');

// Extract items data from database and build Javascript code for menuItems
while ($itemData=mysql_fetch_array($allItems))
{
$jsItems .= '["'.$itemData['text'].'", "'.$itemData['link'].'", "'.$itemData['icon1'].'", "'.$itemData['icon2'].'"],';
}

// Return Javascript code
return $jsItems;
}

?>

<script>
  var menuParam1 = value1;
  var menuParam2 = value2;
  var menuParam2 = value2;
...

  var menuItems = [

<?php

// Write Javascript code for menu items
echo getMenuItems();

?>

];

</script>



Q: I've now begun to offer my clients multiple levels offunctionality. Is there any way to add another level of complexity to the php drop down menu? Would AJAX Menus be the best approach for doing this?

A: You can do it in three ways now.

1) You can use API functions to generate items dynamically:

function dm_ext_createSubmenu (menuInd, submenuInd, itemInd, iParams)
function dm_ext_addItem (menuInd, submenuInd, iParams)

See more info:
http://deluxe-menu.com/functions-info.html

2) Use AJAX feature and create different .js files depend on company and user level.

3) Generate your menu items dynamically from database.
Unfortunately we don't have working example with ASP.

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) 2008, 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.)
];


The example of the menu working with PHP/MYSQL you can find here:
http://deluxe-menu.com/rq-loading-bar-MySQL-support.html



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.


Q: How do I create more space between the menu items?

I have tried adding to the Item Appearance, itemSpacing and itemPadding.


A: You can paste the separator.
Please, see the following parameters:

//------- Separators -------
  var separatorWidth = "10";
  var separatorHeight = "20";
  var separatorAlignment = "center";
  var separatorImage = "C";
  var separatorVWidth = "150";
  var separatorVHeight = "10%";
  var separatorVImage = "image.jpg";

You can create separators using menuItems, for example:

  var menuItems = [
["item 1"],
["-"], // this item is separator
["item 2"],
];

You can also use this parameter:

  var itemPadding = "4px";

You can also set multiple values, for example:

  var itemPadding = "2px 15px 5px 5px";

(top, right, bottom, left)
