Q: I am totally confused by this now but I have 2 data files - one for a menu bar going horizontal and one going vertical both containing the same information. But even though the content is the same, the layout is different.
You will see that on the horizontal menu,
Fleet
Financce
CPC Cards
Cashire
These are listed correctly under each other but on the vertical one, the layout differs.
A: You should write your parameters more carefully.
See, now you have
menuItems = [
["About us","javascript:alert('Coming Soon')", , , ,"" ,0 , , , ],
["|||Organisation Chart","javascript:alert('Coming Soon')", , , ,"" ,1, , , ],
First you have the 1-st level of menu items then at once 4-th. It isnot right. You should write the number of your Individual Style in ""also.
See, how you should write your menuItems:
menuItems = [
["About us","javascript:alert('Coming Soon')", , , ,"" ,"0" , , , ],
["|Organisation Chart","javascript:alert('Coming Soon')", , , ,"","1", , , ],

Q: This tiny javascript menu codes (30kb) take about 25 seconds to load in our browsers (internet explorer)
This intranet site serves approx 15 workstations and I named it 'QuickFind'. It is now the slowest to load of any websites, applications, you name it...
So it is bit embarassing ...
Hoping you can help me to resolve this
A: Try to set the following parameters:
var dm_writeAll=0;
var useIFRAME=0;
Q: I'm trying to set the frame parameters to frame name body. I have tried seven different text items: body, _body, frame name=body, framename=body, "framename=body", the relative URL, and the exact URL in the titemTarget parameter (common parameters). Nothing seems to work. It always sets the target to a new window. What text do I need to enter for the default parameter to be the body frame target?
Also, is there a way to expand only the menus and not the submenus? There doesn't seem to be a halfway point. Either all the menus are open, or all closed. If I set the default to hidden, it is non-functional. If I set it to expanded, that's not what I'm looking for either.
The menu looks good; other than these two problems it is functioning properly.
A: Please, check the following parameter:
var titemTarget="framename";
You can also set item target for each item
["|Home","testlink.htm", "default.files/icon1_s.gif", "default.files/icon1_so.gif", "", "Home Page Tip", "framename", "", "", ],
Try that.
> Also, is there a way to expand only the menus and not the submenus?
You want to expand only the main items when you load your page?
If it is so you can set expanded items by default.
If you want to expand specific items by default you should set "+"symbol at the beginning of item text.
["+Deluxe Tree: XP Style","", "default.files/xpicon1_s.gif", "", "", "XP Title Tip", "", "0", "", ], // this item is expanded by default
["|Home","testlink.htm", "default.files/icon1_s.gif", "default.files/icon1_so.gif", "", "Home Page Tip", "framename", "", "", ],
["|Product Info","", "default.files/icon2_s.gif",
"default.files/icon2_so.gif", "", "Product Info Tip", "", "", "", ], // this subitem is not expanded by default
