Q: Do you plan to implement a fix in the cross browser drop down menu for the pointer - many of our users have complained that it is very un-intuitive - surely it must be possible to change the pointer to a hand if there is a link. I have tried putting <a> tags in to the menu labels, but it only changes to a hand if the actual label text is highlighted - it obviously should change whichever part of the box is highlighted? Is there no other workaround?
A: If you set the following parameter:
var itemCursor="pointer";
You'll have the mousepointer being a hand for all itemsin the menu.
Unfortunately, you can't change cursor type for different items.
But you can write so:
["<a href='http://deluxe-menu.com/'>Home</a>","", , , , , , , , ],
["Product Info","", , , , , "0", , , ],
["|What's New","", , , , , "0", , , ],
In all items with links you should use <a> tag.
Set this parameter:
var itemCursor="default";
Q: I need to set individual itemtargets for a number of items in the navigation bar menu...
A: You can set target parameter for all items:
var itemTarget="_blank";
or
var itemTarget="main";
where main - is the name of the main frame where you want to open the link
or for each item individually:
["Home","testlink.html", "", "", "", "_blank", "", "", "", "", "", ],
...
["Home","testlink.html", "", "", "", "main", "", "", "", "", "", ],
Q: 1) Can any HTML be inserted in to the text?
2) As the item has no link, how can I prevent the item being highlighted on mouseover?
A: 1) Yes, you can insert any html code within menuItems, for example:
["|You can place <b>any HTML code</b><br> to item, for example <u>image</u>:<br><img src=img/logo.gif>","testlink.html"],
["|Index <select style='width:120px;height:17px;font:normal 10px Tahoma,Arial;'><option>Section 1<option>Section 2<option>Section 3</select>", "", "", "", "", "", "", ""],
["|Search <input type=text style='width:80px;height:17px;font:normal 10px Tahoma,Arial;'> <input type=button value='Go' style='width:30px;height:17px;font:normal 10px Tahoma,Arial;'>", "", "", "", "", "", "", "0"],
["|Write Us", "mailto:[email protected]", ""],
2) Yes, you can do it.
You should create Individual Style for it.
For example:
var itemStyles = [
["itemBackColor=#FCEEB0,#FCEEB0","itemBorderColor=,#FCEEB0","fontColor=,#000000"], //style0
];
["Product Info","", "default.files/icon1.gif", "default.files/icon1o.gif", , , "0", , , ], //style0
Q: Is there a problem with your menu software and IE 7?
My menu was working fine, now that I upgraded the browser to IE 7, the menu doesnot show any more.
A: Try to set exact value for menu width.
For example:
var menuWidth="800px";
Your menu should work fine.
