In order to save a lot of time in creating a webpage, I designed a small developers tool to generate all the JavaScript and HTML code for my main windows menu. This will create a menu like the one on the left hand frame of this screen... you must provide the images, of course, but this creates a simple starter code for you to edit.

Using the Tool

1. After downloading the software, via the link below, run it.
2. Enter the number of menu items you expect the menu to contain.
3. Enter the name of the file you wish to store the Code in. NOTE: This will overwrite the file, so don't specify an already existing file unless you wish to lose its contents.
4. Enter the body string. Example bgcolor="#00000" link="#00000" vlink="#00000"
5. Enter the background color for the menu itself. Example #ffffff
6. The file will be outputted with the proper Javascript and HTML code. In order to create the necessary Image files use the following naming convention:
   For Unselected items use img(menu item number)off.jpg
   For menu items that have been selected use img(menu item number)on.jpg
