Q: I am trying to figure out how to specify the css for the top css dropdown menu.
I saw this in some of the example code, but there was nothing similar in Deluxe Tuner
var itemStyles = [
["CSS=topItemNormal,topItemOver","CSSText=topItemTextNormal,topItemTextOver" ],
];
var menuStyles = [
["CSS=topMenu"],
];
I tried adding the above to my js code, but it didn't work. I can get it to work in non-css through Deluxe Tuner.
I am trying to draw a white border around the blue css dropdown menu
.topMenu
{
background-color:Blue;
border-width: 1px;
border-style: solid;
border-color: White;
}
/* Style for submenus */
.submenu
{
}
/* Style for top items: normal state */
.topItemNormal
{
background-color:Blue;
color:White;
text-decoration: none;
text-transform:none;
font-weight:normal;
FONT-SIZE: 11pt;
FONT-FAMILY: Verdana, Arial;
width:100%;
padding:2px 4px;
}
A: var itemStyles = [
["CSS=topItemNormal,topItemOver","CSSText=topItemTextNormal,topItemTextOver"],
];
var menuStyles = [
["CSS=topMenu"],
];
The following code is Individual Styles. You can edit them in DeluxeTuner.
Open your data file, click "Edit Individual Styles..." button on themain window. And create individual item style and individual submenustyle. Then you should assign these styles to your items.

Q: I have used Deluxe tuner menu on a web page and facing two small problems
a) The separator I have used do not show up. This is supposed to be a black horizontal line below every menu item. The image name is sep.jpg
b) The submenu appears on the right and I am unable to figure out a way to get the submenu to appear on the left. My navigation is placed on the right panel so if the sub menu appears on right of drop down menu bar, it practically goes off the page.
Can you please help with this and let me know why this is happening ?
A: 1) You should set separators between main items:
["Home","testlink.html", "data.files/bul.jpg", "data.files/bul.jpg", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["-"],
["About Us","", "data.files/bul.jpg", "data.files/bul.jpg", "", "", "", "", "", ],
And set:
var separatorVImage="data.files/sep.jpg";
var separatorVWidth="100%";
var separatorVHeight="1px";
var separatorPadding="0px";
2) You should set the following parameter:
var smViewType=2;
Q: I need to use an iframe within the popup window.
Is there any way I can close the dhtml window from the page loaded within the iframe?
A: You can close the popup using the following function:
document.getElementById('win').hide();
Unfortunately it won't work if you use iframe as window content.
You open another page in the popup (in Iframe) so you cannot access
document.getElementById('win').hide();
element which is situated on the first page.
When you use text or object_id as window content the content of the popup will be situated
on the same page so you can access document.getElementById('win') element and hide it.
There is a workaround.
Use text as content type and add the following code inside popup:
<a onclick="document.getElementById('win').hide();">...</a><iframe></iframe>
Your link will work in that case.
Q: What can you tell me about the compatibility with Yahoo SiteBuilder. I like the navigator bars they offer, but there are no drop-down menus and you seem to offer a wonderful array of options.
Please let me know if it is worth my time to give you a try.
A: Unfortunately, we don't provide support by phone, e-mail only.
Deluxe Menu wasn't developed as Dreamweaver/Frontpage/Yahoo SiteBuilder extension,BUT you can use it as standard Javascript files. To install the menuinto your html page:
1. open the page in your program
2. open html source code of the page
3. add several rows of code (<script> tags), For info see: http://deluxe-menu.com/installation-info.html
That's all.
To create and configure your menus use Deluxe Tuner application
(included into the trial package): http://deluxe-menu.com/deluxe-tuner-info.html
