Q: I need to know if it is possible to call a JavaScript function from the cool dhtml menu.
I have read the FAQ and noted where it lists that you can perform an alert call, and that worked on my end as well, but when Iattempted to call a function I created I could not get it torespond.
Is it possible to call a function from your menu?
Could Iget an example?
A: You can write your own functions within menuItems, for example:
["|Real-Time Data Query","javascript:window.open('http://www.domain.org/','_blank','height=758,width=1024,status=yes,toolbar=no,menubar=no,location=no');"
,,,'Query real time water quality data' ,'' , '', '', ,],
Q: For each item in my menu, can I specify an image in place of text or background?
A: If you want to use images instead item text, you should useindividual item styles. For example:
var itemStyles = [
["itemWidth=200", "itemBackImage=image1.gif,image2.gif"], // style 0
["itemWidth=150", "itemBackImage=image3.gif,image4.gif"], // style 1
];
var menuItems = [
[" ", "link", "", "", "tip", "target", "0"],
[" ", "link", "", "", "tip", "target", "1"],
];
Where "0", "1" - style number in itemStyles.
Please, use Deluxe Tuner application to create and assign individualstyles. You can find Deluxe Tuner in the trial package.
Q: I purchased a menu system from you and someone else programmed it so I am left to fix it. When you go the page, their is a weird delay, is it possible for you to tell me what is wrong in the html javascript menu?
A: You're using additional features in the menu now
var keystrokes=1;
var floatable=1;
But there are no dmenu_add.js and dmenu_key.js files in the
http://www.domain.com/Hbsound.files/
folder on your server.
I advise you to upload all menu engine files.
Q: The page that I am creating lists out notes from our system - there is a "options" button to the right of each note - when the cursor hovers over this button I want to dynamically load the drag drop menu.
