Recent Questions Dreamweaver Tree Menu Template
Q: I have problem with Deluxe CSS Menu. The menus function well, I can see all of the text at each level.
But the buttons in the css drop-down menu have no graphic shape or back gound color and this is at all levels.
I went through your support page but I cannot find anything that mentions this condition.
Please help help me solve this issue.
A: Try to set in Deluxe tuner: Tools->Copy all files when saving.
Try to export your menu to html once again.
Q: Does this mean that nothing needs to be installed on the server side to make javascript menu?
Here is why I am asking this:
We have a main "corporate" web site, which is going to use the JavaScript Tree Menu. One of the links on the main site will launch a page, which is running on a separate web server (physically separate server, and not a load-balancing scenario). Since all of these pages should look identical to the users, they all have to use the exact same configuration and look&feel in JavaScript Tree Menu. I was wondering if any "configuration" type settings are stored on the server. In other words, would we have to maintain the JavaScript Tree Menu install on two separate servers?
A: There is no need to install anything on your server. You should onlycopy a folder with all engine files (dmenu.js, dmenu_add.js, ...) anddata file on your server. Then you should call these files on yourpages, for example:
<body>
<script type="text/javascript"> var dmWorkPath="menu.files/";</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="menu.files/dmenu.js"></script>
...
<script type="text/javascript" src="data.js"></script>

Actually you can copy deluxe menu files on the one server only anduse absolute paths.
Q: How can I add a separator to the vertical menu using the dynamic functions?
It seems as though the only way to get a separator into the menu is by defining itbefore hand, but the website I'm building will require me to reload themenus dinamically, and I'm losing the ability to put separators on it.
A: You should add items using the following function:
function dm_ext_addItem (menuInd, submenuInd, iParams)
or
function dm_ext_addItemPos (menuInd, submenuInd, iParams, Pos)
Find more info:
http://deluxe-menu.com/functions-info.html
Set the following parameter:
var dm_writeAll=1;
So, you should write:
dm_ext_addItem(0, 4, ["|-", "", "", "", "", "", "", ])
Q: I think I am almost there.
I would like to know a couple of things.
Why the menu does not float?
Why I cannot centre the menu?
A: When you use floatable menu you can't use relative menu position.
So, if you use
var absolutePos = 0;
and to center the menu you use <p> or <div> with the center alignment your menu won't float.
To center your floatable menu you should set absolute coordinates.
var absolutePos = 1;
