Q:

I can not figure out how to fix the vertical dropdown menu from going off the page in
Mozilla by using html code. I don’t know where to put the code. I would like
it to be flush right.

A:

Try to set exact width for the menu width and vertical dropdown menu height, try to specify units
in “px”:
var menuWidth=”500px”;
It’s necessary to specify exact value for Mozilla browsers. It helps
to position menus correctly.
var menuHeight=”20px”;
You should also check your padding parameter, you should write it so:
var itemPadding=”1px 1px 1px 12px”;

Q:

I am trying to make the tabs all the
same width and would like to know how to do that. Therefore “Personal”,
“Account Summary”, “Tax Exemptions”, “Password”, “Invoices”, “Quotes”,
“VOIP” - I need them to all be the EXACT SAME width.

A:

See, I’ve created Individual style

var bstyles = [
["bitemWidth=250px"], // style 0
];

And used this style for some items

["Account Summary","AccountSummary", "tabs/img/icon_ie.gif","tabs/img/icon_ie.gif", "tabs/img/icon_ie.gif", "", "0", "", "",], // style 0
["Tax Exemptions","TaxExemptions", "tabs/img/icon_ie.gif", "tabs/img/icon_ie.gif", "tabs/img/icon_ie.gif", "", "0", "", "", ], // style 0

You can use this style for all items in the same way.

You should set the width of your Tabs
var bmenuWidth=”770px”;
and width for each Tab
var bstyles = [
["bitemWidth=110px"], // style 0
];

And assign this style for all up menu html items.

The problem is the “’s around the img src…..it’s throwing off your
css menu examples.

How do I fix that?

A:

It is not correct to write menuItems in such way.

You should write:

Try that.

Q:

On the home page, when using Opera, and I have
a report from a user who viewed the site with Safari, that the home page
left navigation menu did not work, but the subsequent pages did. I have no problem when
using Internet Explorer, and I have not yet tested the site with
Firefox. Do you have an idea what may be causing this behavior, and how
to fix it?

A:

Try to add the following style to your TD tag.

<TD id=navborder vAlign=top width=200 style="z-index: 10; position: relative;">

Q:

On the left menuline under the a1 link, shall appear the down menus in javascript,
but after several refreshes, nothing happens.
On the local computer, the down menus in javascript is working perfectly!

Can you send me instructions, why this problem appears?

A:

You’ve placed the down menus in javascript in

<TD class=sidebar vAlign=top width=160>

tag with the following styles:

.sidebar TR {
DISPLAY: none! important
}
TD.sidebar IMG {
DISPLAY: none
}
.sidebar TABLE TR TD IMG {
DISPLAY: none
}
.sidebar TABLE TR TD {
DISPLAY: none
}

That’s why you cannot see the down menus in javascript. Delete “DISPLAY: none” property
from the style.

Q:
The problem with the old computer (by clicking an item the wrong subitem
appears and the windows disappears not fast enough. I have tried your
recommendation var smShowPause=200;
var smHidePause=1000;
var transDuration=350;
var transDuration2=200;

A:

Try to decrease these menu vertical parameters, for example
var smShowPause=200;
var smHidePause=300;
Try that.

Q:

I bought the Deluxe Menu system for one website.
menu and navigation works well on all versions of IE that I tried (5,6,7)

However, the background and shadow do not render in Firefox. As a result
the menu is not as attractive.
Can you help with this or am I stuck?

A:

You should add Individual Item style and assign it for the top menu and navigation items:

var itemStyles = [
["itemHeight=20px"],
];
["Home","index.shtml", "", "", "First Page", "", "0", "", "", "", "", ],
["Communication","", "", "", "", "", "0", "-1", "", "", "", ],
…

Filters and transitional effects are features of Internet Explorer
5.5+ only.

Q:

I am having some trouble placing the drop down menu in javascript in frontpage. Does your company
have a toll free number and some kind of tech support for the frontpage
material. We are very interested in your program.

A:

Unfortunately, we don’t provide support by phone, e-mail only.

See, you should do the following things.

1. Create your menu in Deluxe Tuner.
2. Export the menu into html file “File/Export/To HTML”.
3. Copy generated folder with all engine .js files and images
(”deluxe-menu.files/” by default) and data-deluxe-menu.js (by default) into the same folder with you index.html page (created in
FrontPage).
4. Now you should add several rows of code into your index.html file.
You can do it in FrontPage (open HTML source of the page and edit it)
or in any text editor. Open your index.html page and edit it.
Notice that you’ll have errors in the Preview. But you won’t get errors if you open this page in the browser.
5. Add the following code in the tag:

<!– Deluxe Menu –>
<noscript><a href="http://deluxe-menu.com">drop down menu in javascript 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>

and
<script type="text/javascript" src="data-deluxe-menu.js"></script>
in the place where you want to have the menu.
You can paste it in <table>, <div> tags. For example.

<div align=center>
<script type="text/javascript" src="data-deluxe-menu.js"></script>
</div>
6. Save your index.html page and open it in any browser.

Q:

I just purchased deluxe menu and can’t seem to figure out how to
get a custom onMouseOver and onMouseOut event to work on a css dynamic menu item.

Could you please detail how to do this?

A:

Unfortunately, you can’t assign onmouseover/onClick/onContextMenu event to each item.
However, you can achieve this by using standard html objects within css dynamic menu
items, for example:

var menuitems = [
["<div onContextMenu='your_code_here'>item text</div>", ""]
];
