Q: Is it possible set a menu item to pressed when a page is loaded when you have multiple drop down menus on the page?
I have 2 menus side by side and I was able to set the pressed item with the JavaScript API as described in your FAQs but when I try to show an item as pressed in a second menu on the same page, the corresponding item in the first menu shows as pressed. Is there a different function that I can use for this or a way to reset the menu ID in the second menu to start from where the first menu left off so I can use the same function?
A: See the first parameter in
dm_ext_setPressedItem (menuInd, submenuInd, itemInd, recursion)
function is index of the menu.
So, if you use several menus on the one page you should use differentmenuInd parameter.
For example you have:
<script type="text/javascript" src="menu/data1.js"></script> //menuInd=0
...
<script type="text/javascript" src="menu/data2.js"></script> //menuInd=1
...
<script type="text/javascript" src="menu/data3.js"></script> //menuInd=2
...
<script type="text/javascript" src="menu/data4.js"></script> //menuInd=3
So, for the second menu you should write:
dm_ext_setPressedItem (1, 2, 5)
Q: Is it possible to centere mouse over drop down menu?
A: Check that you set relative position for the menu:
var absolutePos=0;
var posX="0px";
var posY="0px";
Place your menu in DIV or TABLE with center alignment.
Q: Does Deluxe-Menu work on .ASPX pages. Actually, I have got them to but the icons don’t appear. This may just be a path issue but I don’t see anything on your site saying that it will work with ASPX.Please let me know.
A: Deluxe Menu works fine on .ASPX pages.
You should install Deluxe Menu on the .aspx page in the same way asyou install it on the html page.
You can use additional parameters to make menu paths absolute:
var pathPrefix_img = "http://domain.com/images/";
var pathPrefix_link = "http://domain.com/pages/";
These parameters allow to make images and links paths absolute.
For example:
var pathPrefix_img = "http://domain.com/images/";
var pathPrefix_link = "http://domain.com/pages/";
var menuItems = [
["text", "index.html", "icon1.gif", "icon2.gif"],
];
So, link path will be look so:
http://domain.com/pages/index.html
Images paths will be look so:
http://domain.com/images/icon1.gif
http://domain.com/images/icon2.gif
Please, try to use these parameters.
