Q: Can you tell me what fields control the lines around the top level of menu items?
What fields control the lines around each sub-menu item?
I would like to test and see if the program will allow me to create a top menu that displays as follows:
Home | Proposal Reponses | Marketing Info |
As you can see I would like no borders around the top level and a tilda (vertical line) separator between each top level menu item.
For the sub-menu items I would like there to be a thin line box around the sub-menu but no lines in between each item within the sub-menu. What fields control these paramenters?
A: Home | Proposal Reponses | Marketing Info |
Yes, you can create such menu.
Please, use Individual styles.
Set these parameters:
var menuBorderWidth=1;
var menuStyles = [
["menuBorderWidth=0"], //style 0
];
["Home","testlink.html", , , , , , "0", , ], //style 0
["Product Info","", "default.files/icon1.gif", "default.files/icon1o.gif", , , , , , ],
To add lines between main items you can paste the separators.
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"],
];
Q: I've just updated my menu from 2.4 to 3.2. All is fine except two of my java script pop up menu (vertical) appear on the left instead of the right, all the others pop out to the right as before. I've tried saving it as a completely different file name, same problem, both within a browser and within your preview pane.
Any help would be much appreciated, I'm at a loss.
A: You can try to change the following parameter:
var subMenuAlign="left";
You can also send us a direct link to your website, so we can check it.
Q: Is there any way of setting the height of individual items in a vertical menu as I need to have some buttons bigger than others.

["Samples<br>Samples","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
Q: Thank you for your reply. I have run the example sent by you. Your dhtml menu example has horizontal menus and it hides all the menus.
But I am using xp vertical menu. In that I have Home,Sales,Customer Support,Reports,Access Control menus.
For Admin login I need all the menus including submenus.
But for employee login i need Home , Sales, Customer Support menus and i need only few sub menus only.
Please help me with this issue.

function dm_ext_changeItemVisibility (menuInd, submenuInd, itemInd, visibility)
