Q:

How can I keep the rollover dropdown menu items from opening into a new window when selected?

A:

You can set target parameter for all items:
var itemTarget=”_self”;

or for each item individually:
["Home","testlink.html", "", "", "", "_self", "", "", "", "", "", ],

Q:

I have been working with the trial package for the last couple of
days, of which I have been really impressed with. However there have
been a couple of things that have frustrated me greatly…

The natural place that I first tried was replacing the
“content1″ line with a direct URL in the var bmenuItems section but
this made no difference at all. I am also trying to work out what
each set of “” equate to as I have found a couple of pages on the
Internet very similar to this but none of them have nine different
sections.

["Home","content1", "", "", "", "", "1", "", "", ],

Is it possible to allow one of the tabs on this template to just
open another page? I look forward to your response in regards to
these questions and hope to hear from you again soon so that I can
crack on with this project.

A:

You can’t assign links in Dhtml Tabs when you’re using var tabMode = 0;.
You can assign only the object’s ID of <div> on your page.

Try to set var tabMode = 1;
and use links for your rollover menu items.

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 rollover menu won’t work
correctly in that case.

You should write
<!– Deluxe Menu –>
<noscript><a href=”http://deluxe-menu.com”>rollover 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) 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:

I’m looking at evaluating your Deluxe menu software for inclusion
in our current web based software solution and am particularly taken
with the ‘Ajax style’ loading.

Could you please answer a couple of questions with respect to that.

At what point does it load those file ¦ initially when
rollover dropdown menu is drawn (so multiple small hits to app server) or when
the user selects the menu? Does the link href *have* to be a .js
file ¦ or can it be any valid file type that returns the
correct data? I have to generate the menu options dynamically
from a DB and therefore really need to include a JSP style file.

Our current rollover dropdown menu (made up of 4 levels deep contains over
300 links, which is why I want to minimise server hit as much as
possible!

A:

It loads when the user move his mouse above the menu items.

You can use any extension for these files. But the file structure
should be the same as in our example.

Q:

I am using your Deluxe Tabs software, and I am simply trying to implement your rollover dropdown menu:
http://deluxe-tabs.com/file/templates/deluxe-tabs-style-3.html

I have downloaded the trial software and built my tabs, but at
this point, all I have is the tabs… I need the entire box under
the tabs, and I need to be able to insert my content for each tab.

Please explain to me how to use your rollover dropdown menu.

A:

You should specify any Object ID name of the DIV.

See, for each item you should assign the ID property of the content
DIV (see data file with your menu parameters).

["Style Name","contentName", "", "", "", "", "1", "", "", ],
["-","", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["Style Description","contentDescription", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["-","", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["Style Variations","contentVariations", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["-","", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["Empty","", "", "", "", "", "2", "", "", ],

And on your html page you should create DIV’s with such ID. You can
set background image for these DIV’s in styles.

<div id="contentName" style="height: 0%; visibility: hidden; background-image: url(’img/back.jpg’); background-repeat:repeat-y;" class="tabPage">
<br><br><br>
<p align=center><img src="img/style01_title.gif" width=140 height=90 alt="Glass Style Tabs"></p>

<div id="contentDescription" style="height: 0%; visibility: hidden;" class="tabPage">
<br><br><br>
<p align=center><img src="img/style01_title.gif" width=140 height=90 alt="Glass Style Tabs"></p>
