Wheel Menu - Copyright (C) by Fabio Ciucci 1998/99


This applet is a 3D navigational menu: it can display up to 8 menu's, 
with 8 items in each menu. 

Note: the labels can't contain numbers or special characters, and will
be considered all as uppercase.

The link feature works only when you are registered by paying for the 
shareware. 

This applet contains code by Dolf van der Schaar & Andrea Fasce which 
is used under a licence.

INSTRUCTIONS.

The following instructions describe how to change parameters:

Attempting to change the credits parameter will disable the applet.

To activate the reg parameters read the shareware registration notes.
In the "regcode" parameter, place the registration code you purchased 
from the author. If the code is correct and the applet is run from the 
registered domain name, you can use "link" parameters to link to a URL
when the applet is "clicked".

If you set "regnewframe" to "YES", you can specify a specific frame 
location for the menu links:

"_blank"  : To load the link in a new blank unnamed browser window.
"_self"   : To load the link into the same window the applet occupies.
"_parent" : To load the link into the immediate FRAMESET parent.
"_top"    : To load the link into the top body of the window.

You can also set a custom frame name, such as "myframe1".

Note: you can specify a specific target for a selected menu item, using the
parameter called "MenuTargetXX". If no "MenuTargetXX" is specified, 
regnewframe is used. Here, XX represents a numeric symbol. You need to set
this parameter for each item.

With "filter" parameter, you can activate a smoothing/antialiasing filter; 
the values are 0=none, 1=smooth, 2=colorize.

With "font" parameter you can choose a font. Actually, only 2 fonts are 
available with the values "0" = font0.class (5 Kb), and 1 = font1.class 
(10 Kb). Remember to copy the font you use, together with other datas, on 
the site.

With "background" parameter, you can choose the background mode: the "color"
mode requires to set the parameter "bbcolor" parameter.
The "blur" mode sets the background as black, and adds a motion blur effect.
The "image" parameter requires to specify an image in "backimage" parameter.
This image must be equal to the applet size.

You can choose to "extrude" the letters, or not, with the "flat" parameter.
With flat=yes, the letters are not extruded. With "no", letters are extruded.

You can control the Up/Down and Left/Righ Mouse sensivity with "mouseSens"
and "YRotation" parameters respectively.

With "offsetStep" you decide the speed of sub-menu appearances.

With "statusbar_y" you can decide the position of the text link statusbar.
If you place here a value bigger than the height of the applet, the
text will not be displayed. This line will be printed with the colour 
specified at "textcolor" parameter.

With the "mode" parameter you choose between "gouraud" and "texture".

With "gouraud" mode, you activate the shading, and you have to choose
the colour of wheels, with "wheelcolor", "textcolor" and "selectcolor".

With "texture" mode, you disable the shading and use a texture, with 
a specified gif or jpg file in the parameter "texture": this image must 
be exactly 256x256 in pixels.

Then, you can specify how the unselected text is darker with "textdiff"
parameter, and how the extrusion is darker, with "extrudediff" parameter.


*****

[The floating mode:]

Optionally, you can enable the "floating window" mode.
The treemenu applet, then, will appear in a floating external window, and will
leave free all the other frame space on the web site.
But, you still have to create a small horizontal or vertical frame (maybe
1 or 2 pixels large), containing the applet, 1 pixel large.

To enable this mode:

1) Set "floatmode" to "YES"
2) Copy the applet width in the "floatw" parameter
3) Copy the applet height in the "floath" parameter
4) Set the applet width=1 and height=1

At this point, you just have to customize it using those parameters:

The window title must be written in the "floatitle" parameter.

The starting X and Y position where window should apper, must be written
in the "floatx" and "floaty" parameters. Note: the coordinates are relative
to user screen, so result can change depending on screen resolution.

If you want the window to be always on top and visible, set the "floatinfront"
parameter to "YES". This could be useful for someone, and annoying for others.

Note: the "floatinfront" option will have no effect on some versions of
Internet Explorer.


*****

[Menu System:]

This menu applet can display up to 8 items in each wheel, and up to 8 wheels.
Each item is defined with a menu identifier + an item identifier.

For example, 00 means menu 0, item 0; 10 means menu 1, item 0; 22 means
menu 2, item 2, and so on.

The numeration starts from 0, so the max item is 7, and the max menu is 7.

Each item should have a Text label:

<param name=MenuText00 value="SUB ONE">   ; Text menu 0 item 0

The text can't contain numbers or special characters.

Each menu item can have (or not have) a link.
The link can be of 2 types: MenuLinkXX or MenuUrlXX:

<param name=MenuLink00 value="1">        ; Menu Link menu 0 item 0: submenu 1
<param name=MenuLink10 value="0">        ; Menu link menu 1 item 0: go back

A MenuLink indicates either to go to next sub wheel menu, or to go back
to previous menu.

To specify the submenu, you simply set: 0,1,2,3,4,5,6... and you can go
more than one step deeper, if you want.

For instance, when you are on menu 2, you can go to submenu 3, or even to 
submenu 4 or 5, etc. To go back to previous menu, just specify the number 
of the menu from where you were linked to the current one.

NOTE: since you can go to the previous menu clicking on the left of the
applet window, you aren't obliged to specify a "BACK" item.

When an item is a MenuUrl, you should specify a http:// or relative link 
to a file:

<param name=MenuUrl02 value="test1.html"> ; Url Link menu 0 item 2

And, optionally, you can specify a target frame:

<param name=MenuTarget02 value="mypage">  ; Target for url link menu 0 item 3

If no target frame is specified, the "regframename" will be used.
