  • Design both horizontal and vertical menus and submenus with any amount of menus on a single page.

Recent Questions

Q: I used the drop menu creator to create a simple tab example, and I created a simple HTML file to display the tabs. It initially appears fine when the page first displays (e.g., the correct div is hidden), but when I *first* click on a tab I always get a javascript error deep in the .js code. Then I click around a bit between the tabs and get some display problems (no more javascript errors though), until finally the show/hide logic recovers and all looks ok.

The error I initially get is something like “tabs[…].id is not an object”. I have the IE7 debugger turned on, otherwise I might not ever see this error.

FYI, I tried your example menus on your web site and everything is fine! Maybe the .js files on your web site are not the same as those created by the generator?

A: You should set the following parameter in drop menu creator:

  var bselectedSmItem=0;



Q: I just noticed as well that I cannot change the spacing of the buttons.

Right now the buttons are tight together, how do I create a gap between each dhtmlmenu button?

A: You can paste the separator.
Please, see the following parameters:

//------- Separators -------
  var separatorWidth = "10";
  var separatorHeight = "20";
  var separatorAlignment = "center";
  var separatorImage = "C";
  var separatorVWidth = "150";
  var separatorVHeight = "10%";
  var separatorVImage = "image.jpg";

You can create separators using menuItems, for example:

  var menuItems = [
["item 1"],
["-"], // this item is separator
["item 2"],
];

You can also use this parameter:
  var itemPadding = "4px";
You can also set multiple values, for example:
"2px 15px 5px 5px";
(top, right, bottom, left)



Q: I have another question:

Menu behavior in SAFARI is does not properly work compared to EXPLORER.

If you have a look at the site via SAFARI, please do the following:

Example:
Under menu "Projets" select "par pays" then "Afrique" then "Algerie".

It will then show a left hand menu. Please select "2008/2010".

It will correctly show content.

Then if you try to select again via menu "Projets"; the html menu navigation does not show anymore the submenus. You still need to click a menu without submenus, like "News", and then afterwards you can click "Projets" and the system will again show submenus.

This strange behaviour does not appear in EXPLORER nor in FIREFOX.

A: The problem is in your frame structure after you open "Projets" select "par pays" then "Afrique" then "Algerie".

Your menu won't work correctly with such frame structure.

You should use the following frame structure for all pages at once:

--------------------------------------------------------
topFrame with the html menu navigation
--------------------------------------------------------
Algerie_leftFrame |
with | Algerie_mainFrame
Tree Menu |
--------------------------------------------------------
bottomFrame
--------------------------------------------------------

and write your init function in the following way:
dm_initFrame("frmSet", 0, 2, 0);

Or you shouldn't use Algerie_leftFrame and Algerie_mainFrame at all (use one mainFrame) and write your init function in the following way:
dm_initFrame("frmSet", 0, 1, 0);


Q: Can I install the menu using my buttons? I might be able to do it if the buttons used only one image, but they use two images. One is light and the other dark.

I also have some questions:
1) Will the menu stay in view when the user scrolls down?

2) I'm not even sure I care if the menu stays in view, because I believe that is done using php and is not good for SEO. The file that the search engines see is index.html while the file that visitors see is home.php. I think it would be better for SEO to have a normal .html page. Are you able to do that?


A: See how you should make image-based menus: if item text is empty, icon fields will be used as item images.
For example:
["", "index.html", "menu1a.gif", "menu1b.gif", "Home Page"]

1) You should use floatable feature.
See the following parameter:
  var floatable=1;

2) You can generate search engine friendly code using Deluxe Tuner:
"Tools/Generate SE-friendly Code".
