Q: Can your menu, when placed in a master page, be propagated throughout an application's sub-folders
or will the html menu need to be added to each page separately?
A: If you don't want to create your menu on each page you can use a
server-side script (php, asp, vb, etc.) to generate html pages from
templates on your server.
However, these scripts don't work inside of Javascript .js files, so,
you should move parameters of a menu from a .js file into an html-page, e.g.:
<!-- Deluxe Menu -->
<noscript><a href="http://deluxe-menu.com">Javascript Menu by Deluxe-Menu.com</a></noscript>
<script type="text/javascript"> var dmWorkPath = "menudir/";</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="menudir/dmenu.js"></script>
<!-- (c) 2006, http://deluxe-menu.com -->
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript1.2">
// and describe parameters of a menu
var parameter1=value1;
var parameter2=value2;
etc.
var menuItems = [
// here you generate items using server-side scripts (php, asp, vb, etc.)
];
The example of the menu working with PHP/MYSQL you can find here:

You can use cross frame menu. It allows you to build full-featured menus on the pages
that use frame-based structure. And it's not necessary to insert any code into all the pages -
just specify the additional parameters of the menu and initialize it.
To install the menu in a cross-frame mode, see more info here:
http://www.deluxe-menu.com/cross-frame-mode-sample.htmlQ: I would like to use it in a page containing two iFrames.
The iFrame called "nav" is where the menu will appear and the iFrame called "main" is where I want any sub-menu items to appear.
How can this be done given there are no "frameset" tags in this type of structure?
A: Deluxe Menu doesn't work with <IFrame> objects.
It works with<frameset> objects only. All it can to do with <IFrame> is to loadpages into it.
You should use standard installation for the menu.
Q: I can't seem to get the floating function to work for a image tab menu.
A: Notice, your tree menu won't float with relative position. You shouldset:
var tabsolute=1;Q: When the menus drop down the background is white but it is see through, this is ok on the homepage but on the other pages it is making the text unreadable. Is there a way of keeping the background of the submenus solid so it isn't see through javascript expanding menu?
A: You should set the following parameter:
var transparency="100";
