Q: Is transparent drop down menu compatable with MS Expression Web?
A:Deluxe Menu wasn't developed as Dreamweaver/Frontpage extension, BUT you can use it as standard Javascript files. To install the menu into your html page:
1. open the page in Dreamweaver/Frontpage 2. open html source code of the page 3. add several rows of code (<script> tags), For info see: http://deluxe-menu.com/installation-info.html
That's all. Q: I'm trying out your menus, and I seem to have a problem with changing the title of a menu item. If the text is something like "Create a New Event" the entire menu spreads out and the rollover image starts replicating itself behind it, instead fo stretching with the text. So I see 1 /2 rollover images for that top level item, instead of just the one, width it's width spread out to accomodate the extra text.
I've tried the Styles bit, but that doesn't seem to fix the rollover image any...
Any pointers ?
A:You can try to set the exact width for each menu item using IndividualItem Styles.
You should use Individual Item Styles. For example: var itemStyles = [ ["itemWidth=120","itemBorderWidth=1","itemBorderStyle=solid,solid"], //style0 ["itemWidth=100","itemBorderWidth=1","itemBorderStyle=solid,solid"], //style1 ["itemWidth=130","itemBorderWidth=1","itemBorderStyle=solid,solid"], //style2 ["itemWidth=150","itemBorderWidth=1","itemBorderStyle=solid,solid"], //style3 ];
Where "0", "1", "2", "3" - style number in itemStyles.
You also should check the width of your rollover image. It should bethe same width as your items.
You can also use tags in the item text, for example:
var menuItems = [ ["line 1 line 2"], ];
Or you can set this parameter:
var noWrap=0;
Try that.
Q: Why is the submenu a different colour has a different colour than menu items - surely that's not an IE specific feature? The top-level menu items seem to be a different size too, so the layout in IE looks more even.
A:Submenus has a different color because they have a transparency:
var transparency="90";
Set it to 100.
Submenus also have larger width than top items because they containsmore text. If you want to wrap the text, use tag between item words.
