Q: Deluxe Menu supports keyboard navigation eg. CTRL+F2 to activate menu.
Why does Deluxe Tabs not have the same feature?
I would like to use both java script navigation menu systems on the same page, and both need to have keyboard navigation for accessibility reasons.
A: Unfortunately it is really so, Deluxe Tree and Deluxe Tabs doesn'thave such a feature now.
We'll try to add this feature in the next versions of the java script navigation menu.
Q: I am having some difficulty dynamically adding items to a tree javascript and menu.
I have a menu with one "root" item. I see the use of the "+" symbol within the item name. I do not see any documentation regarding this symbol, only "|". Can you explain?
If I have one menu with this one "root" node, how would I add an subitem to this root node?
Here is my code so far, but the inserted items appear to be at the same level as the root node.
var rootItem = dtreet_ext_getItemIDByIndex ( 0,0 );
var menuItem = new Array(10);
for ( var i = 0; i < producers.length; i++ )
{
var producer = producers[ i ];
menuItem[0] = producer.name;
dtreet_ext_insertItem ( 0, 0, i + 1, menuItem );
A: See dtreet_ext_insertItem () function has the following parameters:
function dtreet_ext_insertItem (menuInd, parentItemID, itemInd, itemParams)
Creates a new item and inserts it into a specified position.
menuInd - index of a javascript and menu on a page, >= 0.
parentItemID - ID property of an item.<, >= 0.
itemInd - index of a new item within the javascript and menu, >= 0.
itemParams - item parameters.
Notice that parentItemID is the Id property of the parent item (notindex). If you want to add top items you should set parentItemID=0.
itemInd - you should use this parameter if you want to add item in thespecific place, for example set itemInd=5 if you want to add itembefore the existing item with itemInd=5.
If you set itemInd=null the new item will be added at the end of this submenu and its index will be added automatically.
Q: I want that this tree expanded or collapsed (clicking on the image. e.g. like the right button) and go to the link when clicked on the item.
A: No problem.
You can assign a link to the item that has subitems.
When you'll click on item's button, it'll be expanded.
When you'll click on the item, item's link will be opened.
Q: In the standard drop down menu scripts you show a combo box and a search text box. Where are the parameters and/or style options to do this?
A: You can paste any html code inside item text, see example here:
