Q: I’m interested in buying your products.
I have no experience in programming, only know html/php.
How easy would it be to set up these mouseover menus?
I understand your explanation of copying scripts into the relevant html pages.
But what about inserting the menus? Do I have to program them myself?


A: Unfortunately we don't have step by step tutorial now. We'll try tocreate it in the nearest time.

1. Create your menu in Deluxe Tuner application.
You can create any menu as you like in Deluxe Tuner.

You can use ready to use templates. You can find them in the templateswindow.

When you open Deluxe Tuner ( Deluxe Menu ) you can click "File/New"
and add items and subitems using buttons "Add Item" and "Add Subitem" onthe main window.

You should set items and subitems parameters on the "Item Parameters"window.
See also other parameters for the menu on the main window.

More info about menu parameters you can find on our site
(you can alsouse local version of the site which you can find in the trial package
"Deluxe Menu / deluxe-menu.com /")

http://deluxe-menu.com/parameters-info.html
http://deluxe-menu.com/menu-items-info.html

You can also use Individual Styles for items and subitems:

http://deluxe-menu.com/individual-item-styles-info.html
http://deluxe-menu.com/individual-submenu-styles-info.html

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">Javascript 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>

<body>
...
<table>
<tr><td>
<script type="text/javascript" src="deluxe-menu.files/data.js"></script>
</td></tr>
</table>
...
</body>

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
dmenu_search.js
into "deluxe-menu.files/" folder.
You should place this folder in thesame folder with your index. html page.

Try that.


Q: Can data be loaded dynamically?
For example, can your dhtml menu source code load the child of a node once the node is clicked on?


A: You can use AJAX like technology.

http://deluxe-menu.com/ajax-technology-menu-sample.html

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) 2006, 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.)
];
</script>

The example of the menu working with PHP/MYSQL you can find here:

Q: I set a custom target at '_mainFrame' required by Dreamweaver to view in a particular frame. When I click my button it opens in its own window.

Your thoughts would be appreciated.


A: Please, check the following code, for example
  var itemTarget="_mainFrame";

["Galerie de photos","photos/index.php", "img/arrow_r.gif","img/arrow_o.gif", , "_self", , , , ],

or

["Galerie de photos","photos/index.php", "img/arrow_r.gif","img/arrow_o.gif", , "_mainFrame", , , , ],

I suppose that now you have such code
["Galerie de photos","photos/index.php", "img/arrow_r.gif","img/arrow_o.gif", , "_blank", , , , ],
