Recent Questions Css Tree Menu Templates
Q: I've been working with your javascript menu sample and like what I see so far. One issue I have seems to be with the smColumns variable. I'm assuming it was for just the sub menus but in the trial when I change this the entire menu goes into multi- column mode. I exported the project to HTML thinking I could manually change it there, that produced the same result, changed the entire menu to multi-column.
Our menu will be dynamic (populated from SQL Server) with only some of the sub menus being multi-column. We will even have multiple sub menus for certain items and we'll need to have the capability to set which one of those will be displayed in Multi-columns and which ones will not. (See Below) So the question becomes; Is there a way to set the number of columns only for the javascript menu sample subitems we desire to have multi-column and if so how?
A: You should use Individual Styles and set number of javascript menu sample submenu columns foreach submenu individually.
var menuStyles = [
["smColumns=2","smOrientation=undefined"],
];
Q: Hi, I was wondering if there is a way to leave a main java swing menu bar item highlighted when in that section. For example if I clicked on "Contact Us" and when I am on the contact us page, the "Contact us" navigation would still be highlighted. I appreciate any help you might have, thanks!
A: The java swing menu bar has only two states normal and mouseover. We'll try to add the pressed state in the future.
You can set a pressed item using Javascript API:
function dm_ext_setPressedItem (menuInd, submenuInd, itemInd, recursion)
Sets a current pressed item.
menuInd - index of a menu on a page, >= 0.
submenuInd - index of a submenu, >= 0.
itemInd - index of an java swing menu bar item, >=0.
recursion = true/false - highlight parent items.
But notice, to use dm_ext_setPressedItem() you should know ID of selected item and subitem. You can't get this ID after you reload your page. That is why you should write your own code on PHP.
Q: I am looking at purchasing the Drop Down Menu Program. I cannot find any examples of other sites that may be using your product.
And each link that I click on for help gives me code to use on the page. Does this mean that I need to know JavaScript to use this program effectively? How recent is the newest version of your program?
Please advise if there is a support forum, also.
A: I advise you to try our new Javascript menu -- JavaScript Tree Menu, http://deluxe-menu.com.
This is a newer version of DHTML Menu. It works better.
I can send you some links to the websites with JavaScript Tree Menu.

No, there is no need in deep knowledge of javascript to use the menu.
You can use Deluxe Tuner application to create your menus easily.
We release the new version of the menu about two times a year.
Q: If var bselectedSmItem= anything other than 0, the dropdown menu maken links do not work and I get the following error:
A: You should set bselectedSmItem parameter in tabMode=1 only. When youhave subitems.
I'm also sending you the fixed version of dtabs.js file. Please, useit.
