Q:
We purchased the Deluxe Menu a few months ago and are extremely
happy with the product. We have been getting great compliments about
our new navigation system.
The menu has over 500 links and functions like a dream!
One issue I am having, that I just cannot seem to figure out how to fix, is the following:
Our pop up menu java is displayed approx. 70 pixels from the top of the
browser window. On the drop down links that have a number of items
(example 1 in the image below), they display underneath the menu,
however on the links that have only a few items, they display above
the pop up menu java as in example 2 in the image below.
How can I set it so that no matter how many drop-down items there
are, they always display under the pop up menu java, not on top?
A:
Try to set the following parameter:
var subMenuVAlign=”top”;
Q:
The plus symbols (+) for Home, PRODUCT CATALOG, and Back
are almost non visible and I can not find a parameter to move the
pop up menu java to the right or to put a border on the left side.
A:
You set the following style:
#menu TABLE {
PADDING-RIGHT: 0px; PADDING-LEFT: 0px; FONT-SIZE: 1em; PADDING-BOTTOM: 0px; MARGIN: -4px; PADDING-TOP: 0px; BORDER-COLLAPSE: collapse
}
You should delete
MARGIN: -4px;
style or set it:
MARGIN: -4px -4px -4px 0px;
Q:
Is it possible to use more than one Menu in one Site, for example with
<script type=”text/javascript”>var dmWorkPath1 =
“menue/produkt.files/”;</script>
<script type=”text/javascript”
src=”menue/produkt.files/dmenu.js”></script>
<script type=”text/javascript”>var dmWorkPath2 =
“menue/navigation.files/”;</script>
<script type=”text/javascript”
src=”menue/navigation.files/dmenu.js”></script>
unfortunately this syntax doesn´t work
A:
You can use as many menus as you want on the one page.
But you should call dmWorkPath parameter and dmenu.js file only once
on the one page.
You cannot write dmWorkPath1 and dmWorkPath2. Your pop up menu javascript won’t work
correctly in that case.
You should write
<!– Deluxe Menu –>
<noscript><a href=”http://deluxe-menu.com”>pop up menu javascript by Deluxe-Menu.com</a></noscript>
<script type=”text/javascript”>var dmWorkPath = “menudir/”;</script>
<script type=”text/javascript” src=”menudir/dmenu.js”></script>
<!– (c) 2007, http://deluxe-menu.com –>
and call several data files:
<script type=”text/javascript” src=”menudir/data1.js”></script>
…
<script type=”text/javascript” src=”menudir/data2.js”></script>
…
<script type=”text/javascript” src=”menudir/data3.js”></script>
Q:
Is there an option for word wrap or do I have to create my pop up menu javascript if I want to have a 2-line menu item?
A:
To wrap your text you can use the following pop up menu javascript parameter:
var tnoWrap=0;
you can also use standard <br> tags.
["|Home aaaa aaaaaa aaaaaa<br>aaa aaaaaaaaaaa","testlink.htm", "default.files/icon1_s.gif", "default.files/icon1_so.gif", "", "Home Page Tip", "", "", "", ],
Q:
How do I get the sub-menus to open in the 2nd frame of a 3 vertical
frameset.
The pop up menu javascript is in the first frame. I want the sub-menus to open in the 2nd
frame. I don’t see how to set that parameter.
A:
You should check your dm_initFrame() function.
dm_initFrame(framesetID, mainFrameInd, subFrameInd, orientation);
framesetID - id attribute of the frameset;
mainFrameInd - index of the main frame (where the top-menu is placed), >=0;
subFrameInd - index of the subframe (where the submenus will be shown), >=0;
orientation - frame orientaion: 0 - horizontal, 1 - vertical.
You should write it, for example
dm_initFrame(”frmSet”, 0, 1, 0);
Q:
We use your deluxe menu app.
We are trying to configure menu windows to a certain width. But
when we configure it to a certain number of characters, the app cuts
words. Is there any way to configure it, so that doesn’t happens and
puts that word in the lower line in the pop up menu java item?
A:
Try to use the following parameter:
var noWrap=0;
You can also use standard <br> tags within pop up menu java item’s text.
["Product <br> Info","", "deluxe-menu.files/icon1.gif","deluxe-menu.files/icon1o.gif", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
Q:
Before purchase this product in Multiple Websites Licence, I would like to know:
In your licence sample to get the key, the domain name is “yourdomain.com”.
Can I use as domain name a IP address (for Intranets), like “200.211.1.20″ to get the key for the pop up menu java?
A:
You should register the menu for a domain name or for IP address.
In other words, you should register the menu for the domain name that
you print in a browser’s search string, for example:
http://intranet/
http://klinikum-nuernberg/
http://192.168.0.1
http://localhost
But you menu won’t work on a local machine, for example
j:\Stationshandbuch\start.html
Q:
I never had trouble with your other scripts but Deluxe Tuner is very
difficult and I am about to give it up.
I am trying to set up a new navigation bar using vista 3-1. If I add
another Vista pop up menu javascript, they have a completely different look to the ones with the
templates. It makes no sense.
How do I add items and have it remain the same look?.
A:
See, in Vista style templates we use Individual Item Styles for the
top items.
For, example select the first item on the main window.
In the “Item Parameters” window you can see Individual Styles assigned
for this item:
Item Style - Top Item
Submenu Style - Top Menu
When you add the new item you should assign Individual Styles for it
in the same way.
That is all.
