Q: I have created a menu for a product tutorial. It consists of about 50 topics, each of which is listed in my menu. I’m wondering if there is a way to gray out the menu link for the open tutorial topic?
A: Unfortunately, Deluxe Menu doesn't have such a feature.
You should write your own code, for example, on PHP.
You can try to use the following function
function disable() {
dm_ext_changeItem(1, 1, 1, ["", "", "", "", "", "_"]);
}
to disable your items.
The example you can find on our site
http://www.deluxe-menu.com/dynamic-functions-sample.html
Please, see the source code.
Q: How can I remove the vertical lines that connect the + signs in my javascript slide out menu. I do want to keep the -+ signs but just not the virticle lines.
A: See the following javascript slide out menu parameters:
// Lines
var tpoints = 1;
var tpointsImage = "vpoint.gif";
var tpointsVImage = "hpoint.gif";
var tpointsCImage = "cpoint.gif";
If you don't want to use lines you should set:
// Lines
var tpoints = 0;
var tpointsImage = "";
var tpointsVImage = "";
var tpointsCImage = "";
Q: Is there any way to keep a menu lit up when going to another page? Or do the menus always have to default back to their normal state?
I want the menu to know what page the user is on and keep that section highlighted. Any ideas?
A: You should set a pressed item using Javascript API:
function dm_ext_setPressedItem (menuInd, submenuInd, itemInd, recursion)
Sets a current pressed item.
menuInd - index of a menu on a page, >= 0.
submenuInd - index of a submenu, >= 0.
itemInd - index of an item, >=0.
recursion = true/false - highlight parent items.
But notice, to use dm_ext_setPressedItem() you should know ID of selected item and subitem.
You can't get this ID after you reload your page. That is why you should write your own code on PHP.
Q: I need the links for the side navigation bar to be vertical
and the pop up to come up on the right, rather than the bottom.
Is thispossible?
A: You should use the following parameters:
var isHorizontal=0;
var subMenuAlign="right";
