Q: Very interested by your product.I want to know, before buy, if I can call javascript function when the user click on a items in the horizontal drop down menu?
A: You're able to use Javascript for each item, for example:
var menuitems = [
["item text", "javascript:your_code_here"]
];
Unfortunately, you can't assign onmouseover/onClick event to each item.
However, you can achieve this by using standard html objects within items, for example:
var menuitems = [
["<div onClick='your_code_here'>item text</div>", "index.html"]
];
Q: I am trying to implement something with your wonderful product and have annoying problem that I am sure You are going to solve.
I am using 2 deluxe-menus on the same page.
The first one for showing some hierarchy of sites, and the second for showing pop-up right-click context menu (that clicked on some menu-item from the first deluxe-menu) .
The problem is that in case the user clicked on some sub-menu from the first css horizontal menu drop down, then all the sub menus disappear. I want them to stay.
I tried to give to the first deluxe-menu *smHideOnClick*=0 , but it doesn't help.
A: Try to set the following parameter:
var smHidePause=-1;
Q: Where do I increase the width of the javascript menu bars for each entry? Some of my links are a bit longer than the image and it's causing it to use part of another gif to cover it. Sorry not sure if I even explained that right. Let me know if this makes sense.
A: I suppose that you're using Vista style templates.
The width of vista images is 94px. If the width of your menu itemis wider than 94px you should correct the width of the images in anygraph editor, for example in Photoshop. You should set the width ofthese images 120px and set the following parameter:
var itemStyles = [
["itemWidth=120px","itemBackColor=transparent,transparent","itemBorderWidth=0","fontStyle=bold 10pxTahoma","fontColor=#FFFFFF,#F8FF95","itemBackImage=columbine.files/btn_orange.gif,columbine.files/btn_orange2.gif"],
];
You can also try to use the following parameter to use combinedbackground for your items:
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 ='';
Q: I recently downloaded Deluxe Menu to try before I buy. While it was easy to create a menu, when I followed the directions for pasting in the two lines of code where I wanted the menu to appear, it didn't work. Rather, it always positioned the menu at the very top of the page.
Is this intentionally the case because this is a trial version?
I very much like the program; however, I have to know it's going to work correctly before I buy.
A: Info about installation of the menu on your html page you can findhere:
http://deluxe-menu.com/installation-info.html
> Rather, it always positioned the menu at the very
> top of the page.
Please, check that you have
var absolutePos=0;
You can also send us a copy of your html page (including .js files) and we will check it.
