  • Use special Java Script methods for: Dynamic changing of items (link, text, icons, arrows and even individual style!). Addition/removing of items or submenus. Disabling and enabling menu items. Getting the info on every submenu, menu, and items. Changing appearance of items. Other coding tricks.
  • Cross-frame mode lets you to construct full-featured dhtml menus on the pages with frames. But for all that frame set it's not necessary to insert any additional code into all the pages - just specify several extra menu parameters.
  • Ability to handle the menu from the keyboard via keystrokes.

Q: On my website I am a total of 2 menus being generated. How do I correctly generate "SE-Friendly Code" if I have 2 menu in javascripts? The "DM Links" code that is being generated will have a few of the same dm id because the menus are created seperate. How do I get it so each menu will have different dm id with no overlaps?

A: The identifiers in these links are additional parameters.
<div id="dmlinks" style="font:undefined;color:#000000;text-decoration:none">
<a id="dmI0" href="testlink.html">Home</a>
<a id="dmI2" href="testlink.html">Features</a>
<a id="dmI4" href="testlink.html">Description of Files</a>

You can delete these identifiers or leave them.

So, if you have several menu in javascripts on the same page you should generate twoblocks of search engine friendly code and add them on your page.



Q: I cannot see the arrow.gif's in my rollover drop down menu.

Here is my code:
  var arrowImageMain=["menudir/arrow_main3.gif","menudir/arrow_main3.gif"];
  var arrowWidthSub=0;
  var arrowHeightSub=0;
  var arrowImageSub=["menudir/arrow_sub5.gif","menudir/arrow_sub4.gif"];

Do I need to put the arrow's somewhere else?

A: You should check the following parameter:

  var pathPrefix_img="data-samples/images/";

Please check that you have the correct path to your aroows relative to the folder withindex.html file.

For example, you have:
menudir/
menu.js
dmenu.js
arrow_main3.gif
...
index.html

In menu.js file you should write:
  var pathPrefix_img="menudir/";
  var arrowImageMain=["arrow_main3.gif","arrow_main3.gif"];
  var arrowImageSub=["arrow_sub5.gif","arrow_sub4.gif"];

or
  var pathPrefix_img="";
  var arrowImageMain=["menudir/arrow_main3.gif","menudir/arrow_main3.gif"];
  var arrowImageSub=["menudir/arrow_sub5.gif","menudir/arrow_sub4.gif"];


Q: How does one go about changing the parameter or the JavaScript so
that a menu selection stays 'on' for the navigation bar script?
In other words, the menu remains selected, perhaps in a background color
that shows the user this menu choice is selected and the user is in the selected menu area.

A: To save your navigation path you should set the following parameter:

  var saveNavigationPath = 1;
The menu keeps items highlighted during menu navigation.
0 - disabled, 1 - enabled (default).

You can highlight menu items by default in two ways:

1) Set the pressed item on each page idividually using the following parameter:

  var pressedItem = -2;
The toggle mode. Sets an index of an item that will be highlighted by default.
-2 - the toggle mode is disabled;
-1 - the toggle mode is enabled, but no items highlighted by default;
0,1,2,3,... - index of highlighted item in a top-level menu.
- delete   var pressedItem=1; parameter from your data file
- set correct parameter on each page before you call data file, for example:

<noscript><a href="http://deluxe-menu.com">Javascript Menu by Deluxe-Menu.com</a></noscript>
<script type="text/javascript">  var dmWorkPath = "menudir/";</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="menudir/dmenu.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">  var pressedItem=2;</script>
...
<script type="text/javascript" src="menudir/data.js"></script>

2) Set the pressed item/subitem using dm_ext_setPressedItem () function.

Q: With the new version, my body onload function is blocked.
In our application we do something with a body onload function.
It doesn't get called if I use the deluxe-menu. If I remove deluxe-menu js files from html, it works.

Is there a way I can use deluxe-menu and get my onload handler called?


A: Deluxe Menu detects any user's onload events and remember them in the case when you write a such events before dm_init(); call.

Try to delete onload event from <body> and write the following at theend of a page (after dm_init() call):

<script type="text/javascript"> onload = onloadHandler;</script>

That should work.
