Tree menu: iTree Express: Text/colour formatting

1. Text formatting.

To format the text (for the moment excluding colours), there are the following parameters. The parameters must be written into your HTML file between the APPLET tags - just like the examples earlier in the documentation.

<param name=textfont value="Helvetica">
<param name=textsize value=11>
<param name=textstyle value=0>

The parameter textfont may have the values "Helvetica" and "TimesRoman". The parameter textsize may have any value you choose. The parameter textstyle follows this scheme: 0 = plain, 1 = bold, 2 = italic, 3 = bold italic.

2. Colour formatting.

In the free version you choose from preset colour schemes. In the commercial versions you can set any of 8 colours yourself. To do this, you must first set the colourscheme parameter to 8, which tells you that you are choosing your own colours. Then you must give each of the 8 colour parameters a value. They all take hexadecimal values just like HTML colours. For example:

<param name=bgcol1 value="000000">
<param name=bgcol2 value="ece4ba">
<param name=bgcol3 value="6b6331">
<param name=bgcol4 value="9a7932">
<param name=bgcol5 value="9a7932">
<param name=textcol1 value="ba9952">
<param name=textcol2 value="ece4ba">
<param name=textcol3 value="6b6331">

The colour effects are as follows:

bgcol1 = box top-left border

bgcol2 = box bottom-right border

bgcol3 = box main frame fill

bgcol4 = menu background

bgcol5 = scroll background

textcol1 = menu text colour

textcol2 = title text colour

textcol3 = rectangular background behind text on mouse-over

Additional colour formatting parameters are available in the Pro version.

Do NOT write a # sign before the colour codes!
