Q: Do I need to replace the menudir/ in the code with the name of the folder I have placed the .js files?
A: Yes, you should change the name of the folder.
If you have, for example such file structure:
deluxe-menu_files/
dmenu.js
data.js
images/
html_pages/
page1.html
page2.html
index.html
So, you should install your menu in the following way:
<head>
<!-- Deluxe Menu -->
<noscript><a href="http://deluxe-menu.com">Javascript Menu by Deluxe-Menu.com</a></noscript>
<script type="text/javascript"> var dmWorkPath = "deluxe-menu_files/";</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="deluxe-menu_files/dmenu.js"></script>
<!-- (c) 2006, http://deluxe-menu.com -->
</head>
<body>
<script type="text/javascript" src="deluxe-menu_files/data.js"></script>
</body>
