Q: I'm fairly new to HTML and Java. I'm using your popup window html, (its great) but do notknow how to use the "ID object" function. I'm using Frontpage as my HTML editor. The only way I can figure out how to give "a line of text" or a "Graphic" and ID is to create a "Layer". That creates an (ID) in the HTML script. But I still cannot get the pop up to work when clicking the object. How is the best way to create an object ID that will all Deluxe pop-up to recognize it?
Can I have two separate pop-up within the same html page?
One last thing...Can I create a pop up that fly's out after 10 seconds, and within that fly out have a link that opens another pop up with important info in it using the iframe feature?
This sound like novice questions, but that's me!
A: See you can show the popup window when you hover, click or mouseout on some elements on yourpage. For example you've added an image in the FrontPage. Right click on this image and goto "Picture properties...", on the Appearance tab select 'Style...' and enter any text inthe ID field, for example 'open_popup'. Switch to 'Code' mode, you'll have the followingcode:
<p><img border="0" src="images/submenu-bg.gif" width="170" height="29" id="open_popup"></p>
So, in the Deluxe Tuner you should enter 'open_popup' object ID in the onMouseOver,onClick or onMouseOut fields.
Actually you can assign id to any object on your page manually. Switch to 'Code' mode andadd id="open_popup" for <a>, <div>, <img> ... tags.
> Can I have two separate pop-up within the same html page?
You can add as many popups as you want.
> Can I create a popup window html that fly's out after 10 secondsCreate popup window and set openAfter=10 parameter to it. You can find this parameter in'Actions' section.
> and within> that fly out have a link that opens another pop up with important info in it using the iframe feature?Use HTML content as window content. Set winContent parameter in 'Common' section.
Add link inside the html content:
<a title='Click to open sample' href='javascript:;' onclick=\"deluxePopupWindow.open(\'window1\', \'files/test.html\', \'Window2\',\'width=220,height=270,resizable,scrollbars=no,middle,right,fade-effect\', \'default\', \'iframe\')\">Click to open Popup Window with 'files/test.html'content.</a>
More info about deluxePopupWindow.open() function you can find:
http://deluxepopupwindow.com/window-installation-info.html
function deluxePopupWindow.open("winID", "content", "header", "param", "skin", "contentType")
Use another winID (first parameter) than you have in your data file if you don't want to close 1-st popup window or use thesame winID=win if you want to close 1-st popup.
content - will be the path to the file you want to load in your popup (files/test.html)
skin - is the name of your skin (default in my example)
contentType - set this parameter to iframe.Q: I contact you because this morning we have bought a single license of your deluxe tree menu for our web site www.roderstore.com All features of tree menu work good when I try it on local computer.
When I send the files on web site there is the problem that we must work on different directory : the script must be saved in a directory and the html page with menu inside is installed in another directory.
We can't save the script inside the directory of html pages because there are a lot of pages that call the tree menu, in different levels of path.
In the header of html page I have write the absolute path of script ( http://www.domain.com/menu/it/deluxe-menu.files/ ) and I have called the source of script with all absolute path.
The problem is that the tree javascript moving menu is visible, the function are OK ( expand and collapse are OK ) but the tree don't have the images !
I presume that the problem is the different directory of script and html page ?
What can we do ?
A: You can try to use absolute path to your images. To do it you shouldset the following javascript moving menu parameter:
var tpathPrefix_img="http://www.domain.com/menu/it/deluxe-menu.files/";
You can also send us a direct link to your website, so we can check it.
Q: I am interested in purchasing your product (in particular – Mac Tabs). I downloaded a trial to test Mac Tabs. The trial Mac Tabs is not the same as shown on your website where the “links” appear horizontally under the “tab”. In this trial version the “links” appear as tabs also and not in a horizontal bar under the tab.
In testing the XP Tabs trial, I found it worked correctly.
Is there something wrong with the trial version of Mac Tabs?
A: See, if you want to add links to the tabs you should create your tabmenu in Tab mode.
var tabMode=1;
You can find all instructions how to create such tabs in the Templatewindow "MAC" tab.
You should add subitems for the items and assign Tab Style for thesubitems.
For example try to use MAC Style 2 Tab Mode.
Q: The menu has a problem with newlines. The menu builds correctly (layout ok) but when pressed on the button nothing happens
At some point, in the DHTML menu, we have the following in the javascript:
var menuitems = [
["|Print HTML","javascript:alert('HTML print: Only the 7 most recent orders on the screen \n will be printed because of space limitations on paper.');printResult('4'); ","","", ,"_parent",,] ]
As you can see we have a newline (\n) between the words "screen" and "will". But when we click on the button nothing happens. If we remove the newline and we click on the button then we first get the alert box. After pressing the OK button the function printResult is called.
Is there any way for us to still use the newline character in the menuItems variable?
This can be easily reproducible. That's why I haven't made an example.
A: Try to write in the following way \\n:
["|Print HTML","javascript:alert('HTML print: Only the 7 most recent orders on the screen \\n will be printed because of space limitations on paper.');printResult('4'); ","","", ,"_parent",,]
