Q: How can I make items appear much more quickly in the drop down menu samples?
They appear but only after mouseing-over the menu and waiting for approximately one second.
A: Try to adjust the following parameters:
var dm_writeAll=0;
var smShowPause=100;
var smHidePause=1000;
var transDuration=150;
var transDuration2=200;
You can also turn off transitional effects
var transition=-1;
Q: Is there any way to have a floating menu float in relation to the centre of the screen (not the left of the screen). I have a centre based website. When I use the floating menu and view the site on different screen sizes, the floating menu appears in different places on the x scale. For example, I would like it 20 percent from the edge of my centre based webpage, not 20 percent from the left of the screen. I want the menu to appear on the same horizontal place on my webpage (which is centre based)
A: No unfortunately it is not possible to write
var posX="50% - 20";
You should adjust your coordinates to center the menu with absoluteposition.

Q: How can I center my navigation java script menu bar within my HTML page? I have tried putting the script into a table that is centered. I have also changed the var menuWidth to 800px. The navigation bar is still right-justified instead of centered in both IE and Firefox/Mozilla.
A: Now you use absolute position for the java script menu bar:
var absolutePos=1;
var posX="0px";
var posY="0px";
You should set:
var absolutePos=0;
