Q: I am trying to create a tab menu and I have some questions. I want a tab menu that has four tabs. Each tab is a different image, the normal and hover state uses the same image and the selected state uses a different image. This will be applied to all four tabs. All the tabs will not have any text on them because the image will already have text on it. This tab menu will not have a submenu but will use <div id> tags to populate information when a certain javascript menu master tab is selected.
I am having difficulty trying to create this type of tab menu to work with the Deluxe Tuner. Each time I try to make an image as a tab that image is applied to all javascript menu master tabs which I do not want. I want each tab to have a different image.
Please advice how I can do this.
A: If you want to use different images you should use Individual ItemStyles and assign them for your tabs.
var bstyles = [
["bitemBackImage=deluxe-tabs.files/style04_n_back.gif,deluxe-tabs.files/style04_s_back.gif, deluxe-tabs.files/style04_s_back.gif","bbeforeItemImage=deluxe-tabs.files/style04_n_left.gif, deluxe-tabs.files/style04_s_left.gif,deluxe-tabs.files/style04_s_left.gif", "bafterItemImage=deluxe-tabs.files/style04_n_right.gif, deluxe-tabs.files/style04_s_right.gif,deluxe-tabs.files/style04_s_right.gif"],
["bitemBackImage=deluxe-tabs.files/style04_2_n_back.gif,deluxe-tabs.files/style04_2_s_back.gif, deluxe-tabs.files/style04_2_s_back.gif","bbeforeItemImage=deluxe-tabs.files/style04_2_n_left.gif, deluxe-tabs.files/style04_2_s_left.gif,deluxe-tabs.files/style04_2_s_left.gif", "bafterItemImage=deluxe-tabs.files/style04_2_n_right.gif, deluxe-tabs.files/style04_2_s_right.gif,deluxe-tabs.files/style04_2_s_right.gif"],
["bitemBackImage=deluxe-tabs.files/style04_3_n_back.gif,deluxe-tabs.files/style04_3_s_back.gif, deluxe-tabs.files/style04_3_s_back.gif","bbeforeItemImage=deluxe-tabs.files/style04_3_n_left.gif, deluxe-tabs.files/style04_3_s_left.gif,deluxe-tabs.files/style04_3_s_left.gif", "bafterItemImage=deluxe-tabs.files/style04_3_n_right.gif, deluxe-tabs.files/style04_3_s_right.gif,deluxe-tabs.files/style04_3_s_right.gif"],
];
var bmenuItems = [
["Item 1","", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ], //style1
["Item 2","", "", "", "", "", "1", "", "", ], //style2
["Item 3","", "", "", "", "", "2", "", "", ], //style3
];
Q: I have one more question. I built the menu using Deluxe Tuner.
I cannot find where to change the mouse over color from blue to something more appropriate in my drop down menu templates. Can you tell me where to do this?
A: You should change the second color in the following parameter:
var itemBackColor=["#FCEEB0","#65BDDC"];
Q: I have changed the font parameters for the menu, but it only seems to affect the dropdown parts, the main menu font doesn't change, and I would like them to be consistent. How do I fix this?
A: Please, make sure that you don't use Individual Item Styles for themain items. If you're using styles you should change font in thisstyles.
Q: I'm trying out the cross-browser (top to bottom) drop down menu and I was wondering if it was possible to have the top bar (the main items) use a background image while the sub-items beneath used a plain background color and no image?
So far I've gotten them to either both use a background image, or both use a background color. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. :)
A: Actually you can create any menu you like with JavaScript Tree Menu.
You can use Individual Styles to set background image for the items
var itemStyles = [
["itemWidth=92px","itemBackImage=deluxe-menu.files/btn_black.gif,deluxe-menu.files/btn_black_blue.gif"],
];
oryou can use images instead of icons (you should delete item's text).
["","", "deluxe-menu.files/btn_black.gif", "deluxe-menu.files/btn_black_green.gif", "", "", "", "", "", ],
