Recent Questions Types Of Tree Menu Samples
Q: I am interested in purchasing your product (in particular – Mac Tabs). I downloaded a trial to test Mac Tabs. The trial Mac Tabs is not the same as shown on your website where the “links” appear horizontally under the “tab”. In this trial version the “links” appear as tabs also and not in a horizontal bar under the tab.
In testing the XP Tabs trial, I found it worked correctly.
Is there something wrong with the trial version of Mac Tabs?
A: See, if you want to add links to the tabs you should create your tabmenu in Tab mode.
var tabMode=1;
You can find all instructions how to create such tabs in the Templatewindow "MAC" tab.
You should add subitems for the items and assign Tab Style for thesubitems.
For example try to use MAC Style 2 Tab Mode.
Q: Thanks for swift reply, however:
Tried the dmenu.js (only one we use) at our trial site and get the error :
Line 13
Invalid argument
- as you know this js file is obfuscated to one line, so using a debugger does not apply.
A: See the attached example. I've upgraded your javascript layer menu to JavaScript Tree Menu v3.0.
use data file and engine files from the attachment.
You had several errors in the structure of menuItems.
It is not correct to write
["| Contact us","http://www.imarex.com/home/contact_us","","","","","8","","",],
["||| Energy team","http://www.imarex.com/home/contact_us/energy_team","","","","","8","","",],
You should write:
["| Contact us","http://www.imarex.com/home/contact_us","","","","","8","","",],
["|| Energy team","http://www.imarex.com/home/contact_us/energy_team","","","","","8","","",],
Q: I have built a new drop down css menu.
I have a named frame body but when I use the menu creater it works and changes the frame but when loaded to the site it says error on page.
what have I done wrong ?
Try the home which calls home_body.htm and about us which calls About Us.html in the body frame top the right of the menu.
A: You cannot use local paths on the Internet sites. They won't work.
["Home","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["|Back to main page","D:/Web Design/CCA/home_body.htm", "", "", "", "", "body", "", "", ],
["About Us","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["|History","D:/Web Design/CCA/About Us.html", "", "", "", "", "body", "", "", ],
You should write, for example:
["Home","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["|Back to main page","home_body.htm", "", "", "", "", "body", "", "", ],
["About Us","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["|History","About Us.html", "", "", "", "", "body", "", "", ],
Q: We have several problems with your menu.
Notice when trying to select a drop down item…the item disappears, rather than holding in place as the mouse is over the menu item.
Second, we’d like to know how to expand the width of the main headers and sub headers. Currently, they are not of the same width.
Lastly, we’d like to change the font and load new fonts to match the branding of the menu items.
Please let us know where we can find instructions to make these modifications/customizations.
A: Please, try to write your menuItems parameter correctly.
You should set "iconOver" parameter for each item (you can set "").
Please, see how you should write your menuItems:
["","index.php","nav_home_out.gif","nav_home_over.gif","","_self","0",,,],
["","","nav_experience_out.gif","nav_experience_over.gif","","_self","0",,,],
["|Contestants","experience_contestants.php","","","_self","2",,,],
...

You should use Individual styles, for example:
var itemStyles = [
["itemWidth=120px","arrowImageMain=image1,image2=home_out.gif,home_over.gif"], // style 0
["itemBorderWidth=2","itemBorderStyle=solid,solid", "itemBorderColor=#AA0000,#0000FF"], // style 1
["fontStyle=bold 12px Arial,Helvetica", "fontDecoration=none,underline"], // style 2
];
var menuItems = [
["","index.php","nav_home_out.gif","nav_home_over.gif","","_self","0",,,],
["","","nav_experience_out.gif","nav_experience_over.gif","","_self","0",,,],
...
For submenus you should set the following parameter:
var smWidth="150px";
> Lastly, we’d like to change the font and load new
> fonts to match the branding of the menu items.
You should also use Individual styles.
But you should set this parameter:
var fontStyle="";
And then use different fonts for your items.
