Recent Questions Jquery Tree Menu
Q: Do you by chance have the dhtml menu samples working with XML?
A: Unfortunately we don't have working example.
You may generate a menu from a database or XML using any server-side script, e.g., PHP, ASP, VB, etc.However, these scripts don't work inside of Javascript .js files, so,you should move parameters of a menu from a .js file into an html-page, e.g.:
<!-- JavaScript Tree Menu -->
<noscript><a href="http://deluxe-menu.com">dhtml menu samples by Deluxe-Menu.com</a></noscript>
<script type="text/javascript"> var dmWorkPath = "menudir/";</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="menudir/dmenu.js"></script>
<!-- (c) 2008, http://deluxe-menu.com -->
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript1.2">
// and describe parameters of a menu
var parameter1=value1;
var parameter2=value2;
etc.
var menuItems = [
// here you generate items using server-side scripts (php, asp, vb, etc.)
];
</script>
The example of the menu working with PHP/MYSQL you can find here:
http://deluxe-menu.com/rq-loading-bar-MySQL-support.htmlQ: How do I set the width of sub menu items to be the same width as the parent horizontal dhtml menu item? I can see how to set a px or % width, and when the at least one sub menu item exceeds the parent item the the entire menu stretches to that width (which is fine), but what about the instance where the sub menu items are not as wide as the parent item - in this case, the sub menu is not as wide as the parent item, which looks odd. Is there any way to force it to be (at least) the same width as the parent item?
I hope this is all clear to you, if not, please give me a shout for clarification.
A: You can set exact width for your top items using Individual Item Styles and set submenu width usingIndividual Submenu Style.
You should also set the following parameter:
var noWrap=0;Q: I have been using JavaScript Tree Menu quite a bit, but am now running into a problem on a site I developed. When I add a submenu, it appears separated by about 100 pixels down. In this case I left it on the Menu Item “Why Maumelle” for you to look at.
Can you help me out?
A: See, the problem is that the script can't get css properties of the object if they are described in separate .css block (or file).
In other words, you can't get the value of "position" attribute of the object if the object doesn't have this property within inline style(style="position:relative"). To get the value you should move .css style into style="" attribute.
Please, try to add your
css file -> inline css, for example:
For example, you should add style="position:relative;"
to the
<DIV class=MainBody>
<DIV class=Banner></DIV>
<DIV class=Menu>
So, you'll have:
<DIV class=MainBody style="position:relative;">
<DIV class=Banner></DIV>
<DIV class=Menu style="position:relative;">
Now we have only such solution for this problem.
We'll try to fix this problem in the future versions.
Q: Where do I add my "blahblah.htm" page links in js menu?
Copy of menu data below. I assume it is between the first pair " " but not sure about all the , , , , , "0" etc following.
["Home","", , , , , "0", , ],
["Contact","blahblah.htm", , , , , "0", , ],
["|Hosts","", , , , , , , ],
A: You're right, the following syntax is correct:
["Contact","blahblah.htm", , , , , "0"]
Here is the format for a menu item:
["text", "link", "icon1", "icon2", "tip", "target", "styleIndex"]
Please, try to use Deluxe Tuner application to configure your menu:
