Q: Can you please give me an example of how I would return the full path to the selected item of the web site menu?
A: See the following example:
function getFullPath(mInd){
var result='';
// get pressed item
var params = dm_ext_getMenuParams(mInd);
if (!(params[2]>=0)) return '';
function getPathForItem(mInd,smInd,itInd){
// get for this item
var params = dm_ext_getItemParams(mInd,smInd,itInd);
var result = params[2]+ '('+ params[3]+')';
// find root item id
if (smInd <= 0) return result;
params = dm_ext_getSubmenuParams(mInd,smInd);
for ( var smInd_=0;smInd_ for ( var itInd_=0;itInd_ itParam = dm_ext_getItemParams(mInd,smInd_,itInd_);
if (itParam[0]=arams[2])// id
return result + '->' + getPathForItem(mInd,smInd_,itInd_);
}
}
return result;
};
return getPathForItem(mInd,params[1],params[2]);
}
Q: I also did not understand the difference between the "deluxe menu" and the "deluxe tree" software. Can you please send me a short description?
A: These are different menus.
Deluxe Tree is a tree view. Items in Deluxe Tree are expand/collapseon click.
Deluxe Menu is a cascade menu.
Q: I have a problem. How can we get the value of a parameter passed by the menu, when a menu item is clicked? For example I want to get the URL or file name to be open by the menu item when it is clicked.
I am talking about TREE menu.
A: If you want to open url or a file when you click on items of the tree menu you can write, for example:
var tmenuItems = [
["+DHTML Menus","http://dhtml-menu.com", "images/xpicon1.gif", , , "DHTML Menus", , "0", , , , ],
["|Save as...", "javascript:OpenFile('file_name')"]
];
Q: I am very interested in using your deluxe menu products for mynew website design, particularly the Tree Menu.
I've been looking at the code and am a bit worried that the links used will not berecognised by Search Engine robots.
Do you have any information regarding implementation of dhtml treemenu so that the links are fully visible to search engines?
A: You can generate search engine friendly code.
Deluxe Tree is a search engine friendly menu since v2.4.
To create a search engine friendly menu you should add additional html code within your html page:
<div id="dmlinks">
<a href="menu_link1">menu_item_text1</a>
<a href="menu_link2">menu_item_text2</a>
...etc.
</div>
To generate such a code use Deluxe Tuner application.
You can find this GUI in the trial package.
Run Tuner, load your menu and click Tools/Generate SE-friendly Code (F3).
