Q: I am evaluating De Luxe menu. We perhaps like to become OEM distributor.
But I have a question.
In a website i would like to align 3 menu items to the left of the page and the other items to the right.
The 3 items to the left have a different style. But all have a fixed width.
I tried to define a spacer between the items but this didn't work out.
<script type="text/javascript"
src="/webos_net/dmenu/data.js"></script><script
type="text/javascript">
var menuItems = [
["Website","/webos_net/default2.aspx?site=website",,,"","_top","0"],
["MyNorma","/webos_net/default2.aspx?site=mynorma",,,"","_top","0"],
["BackOffice","/webos_net/default2.aspx?site=portal",,,"","_top","1"],
[" ","/webos_net/default2.aspx",,,"spacer","","2"],
["Zoek","",,,"",'main','3'],
["Stamgegevens","",,,"",'main','3'],
["Repartitie","",,,"",'main','3'],
["Beheer","",,,"",'main','3'],
]
dm_init();
I also defined itemstyles:
var itemStyles = [
//hoofdmenu
["itemWidth=50pt","itemBackImage=/images/topmenu1bg.jpg","fontColor=#444444,#444444"],
//hoofdmenu selected
["itemWidth=50pt","itemBackImage=/images/topmenu1bg.jpg","fontColor=#444444,#444444","itemBorderWidth=2","itemBorderColor=#ff0000,#ff0000"],
//spacer
["itemWidth=100%"],
//default menu
["itemWidth=100pt"],
];
Can you provide a java menu samples which shows left and right alignment of menu items is possible?
A: Unfortunately it is not correctly to write
["itemWidth=100%"],
in Individual Styles. It won't work. You can set the exact width forthis space, for example:
var itemStyles = [
["itemWidth=50pt","itemBackImage=/images/topmenu1bg.jpg,/images/topmenu1bg.jpg", "fontColor=#444444,#444444","showByClick=0"],
["itemWidth=50pt","itemBackImage=/images/topmenu1bg.jpg","fontColor=#444444,#444444", "itemBorderWidth=2","itemBorderColor=#ff0000,#ff0000"],
["itemWidth=220px","itemBackColor=transparent,transparent","itemBorderWidth=0", "itemBorderStyle=none,","showByClick=0"],
["itemWidth=100pt"],
];
var menuStyles = [
];
var menuItems = [
["Website","/webos_net/default2.aspx?site=website", "", "", "", "_top", "0", "", "", "", "", ],
["MyNorma","/webos_net/default2.aspx?site=mynorma", "", "", "", "_top", "0", "", "", "", "", ],
["BackOffice","/webos_net/default2.aspx?site=portal", "", "", "", "_top", "1", "", "", "", "", ],
[" ","", "", "", "spacer", "", "2", "", "", "", "", ],
["Zoek","", "", "", "", "main", "3", "", "", "", "", ],
["Stamgegevens","", "", "", "", "main", "3", "", "", "", "", ],
["Repartitie","", "", "", "", "main", "3", "", "", "", "", ],
["Beheer","", "", "", "", "main", "3", "", "", "", "", ],
];
Q: Is your dhtml menu software compatable with xsite pro?
A: Deluxe Menu wasn't developed as Dreamweaver/Frontpage/XSitePro extension,
BUT you can use it as standard Javascript files.
To install the menuinto your html page:
1. open the page in Dreamweaver/Frontpage/XSitePro
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 need to be able to set backcolor of selected menu item of the current page in the dhtml collapse menu. Is there a way to do this?
A: No, unfortunately now you can set the font color for the pressed menu itemonly. We'll try to add more parameters to the pressed item in the nextversion of the dhtml collapse menu.
Q: Doesn't this mean that I have to add this search engine code to all of my sites pages? If so this could be tedious when adding additional pages to a large site.Is this something I can adjust ...or make submenus were you can't see through them?
A: Unfortunately it is really so. You should paste search engine code onthe each page with the menu.
If you don't want to create your menu (and add search engine friendlycode) on each page, you can try to use frames, the menu has a cross-frame mode. Also you can use aserver-side script (php, asp, vb, etc.) to generate html pages fromtemplates on your server.
