Javascript Menu. DHTML Menu.

  • Tune menu parameters manually or using Deluxe Tuner. Then add several rows of a code within html page - your menu is ready!
  • Use special JavaScript functions for: Dynamic changing of items (text, link, icons and even individual style!). Making a menu item active/inactive. Addition/removing of items. Changing of visibility of items. Getting the information on any menu, submenu and items. Other tricks.
  • Opportunity to control the menu from the keyboard.
  • Cross-frame mode allows you to build full-featured menus on the pages that use frame-based structure. But for all that it's not necessary to insert any additional code into all the pages - just specify some additional parameters of the menu.

Recent Questions

Q: 1: For the deluxe-menu, can I keep a submenu shown even when my mouse pointer is NOT over the submenu anymore (besides the delay functions?) and hides only after a mouseclick somewhere (like the Microsoft menu of outlook)?

2: Is there a way to use the smartscrolling function (for a vertical menu) on the MAIN menu instead of only for the submenu's?


A: 1) Unfortunately, you can't do it.
You can use Deluxe Tree,
http://deluxe-tree.com

2) Yes, you can't use scrolling in the main menu. But if you have verylarge menu you can use multilevel menu,

Theoretically we can do scrolling in the main menu, but we think that it will be better touse multilevel menu in that case.


Q: One other issue I am having if you don't mind helping. On my web site when I run the menu I get an Errors on page message with the following

Line: 16
Char: 18132
Error: Access is denied.
Code: 0
URL: http://www.site.id.au/left_frame.htm

When I run the site from my local PC with the menu, I don't get this error?
Could you possibly suggest why? I can't find anything on your site.


A: Try to check all you paths.
original setting:

  var tmenuBackImage="";
  var titemBackImage=["",""];

changed to:

  var tmenuBackImage="images/blank.gif";

  var titemBackImage=["images/blank.gif","images/blank.gif"];

Try to specify units in "px".
  var tmenuWidth = "180px";
It's necessary to specify exact value for Mozilla browsers. It helpsto position menus correctly.

You should set this parameter:
  var tmenuHeight = "auto";
Now you have such parameters in the menu:
   ["||24","C:/Documents and Settings/Paul/My Documents/My Web Sites/site.id.au/guide/24.htm", , , , , "main_frame", , , , , ],
   ["||30 Days","C:/Documents and Settings/Paul/My Documents/My Web Sites/site.id.au/guide/30days.htm", , , , , "main_frame", , , , , ],    ["||Battlestar Galactica","C:/Documents and Settings/Paul/My Documents/My Web Sites/site.id.au/guide/battlestarg.htm", , , , , "main_frame", , , , , ],
   ["||Blade","C:/Documents and Settings/Paul/My Documents/My Web Sites/site.id.au/guide/blade.htm", , , , , "main_frame", , , , , ],
   ["||Eureka","C:/Documents and Settings/Paul/My Documents/My Web Sites/site.id.au/guide/eureka.htm", , , , , "main_frame", , , , , ],
   ["||I Pity the Fool","C:/Documents and Settings/Paul/My Documents/My Web Sites/site.id.au/guide/ipitythefool.htm", , , , , "main_frame", , , , , ],

You cannot use local paths on your website.
Please, correct it. <
br>You should write for example:    ["||24","site.id.au/guide/24.htm", , , , , "main_frame", , , , , ],
   ["||30 Days","site.id.au/guide/30days.htm", , , , , "main_frame", , , , , ],
   ["||Battlestar Galactica","site.id.au/guide/battlestarg.htm", , , , , "main_frame", , , , , ],

Try to use also the attached engine .js files on your server.


Q: Why don't any of the effects work in Firefox? I have built several different types of menus and they don't work the same in firefox as they do in IE. Is there a way to fix this? i.e. adding any html code or anything?


A: Yes, it is really so. Firefox supports only transparency of the menu.
Visual effects work in IE only. other browsers don't support them.

Q: Here is a snapshot from the javascript drop down menu:

["admin","/Main/Administration.asp", "", "", "", "", "1", "", "", ],

 ["|test1","http://www.vg.no", "", "", "", "", "0", "0", "", ],

 ["|test2","/Main/Setup.asp", "", "", "", "", "0", "0", "", ],

If I click on test1 which is a Norwegian newspaper, it works.

But it I click on test2 which is a link to my page – it does not work.

A: You cannot use "" symbols within menuItems. It is not correct.
Try to write your javascript drop down menu items in the following way:

["admin","/Main/Administration.asp", "", "", "", "", "1", "", "", ],
 ["|test1","http://www.vg.no", "", "", "", "", "0", "0", "", ],
 ["|test2","/Main/Setup.asp", "", "", "", "", "0", "0", "", ],
