Q: I am testing the menu under the 2nd URL however I am just receiving a blank page Why would the menu be totally blank ...not even incorrect key or trial version warnings. Does Deluxe menu need ASP installed on the server.
A: You should call dmWorkPath parameter before you call dmenu.js file.
Check also that this parameter point to the same directory withdmenu.js file. So, you should install the menu in the following way:
<noscript><a href=http://deluxe-menu.com/>JavaScript Menu by Deluxe-Menu.com</a> </noscript>
<script type="text/javascript"> var dmWorkPath = "/";</script>
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript1.2" src="dmenu.js"></script>
Check it.
Q: The mentioned effect occurs even when the entire page is completely loaded!
As we explained before, it occurs only when we view the page with explorer 6.
(It is working fine under explorer 7 and under Firefox, so you should check it under explorer 6)
Please see the following link with our test page which demonstrates the problem.
As you will see, the buttons of the javascript menu scroll and the text will disappear (become white) while you move the mouse cursor over the menu buttons. It has nothing to do with page loading.
We are using a "Vista style" javascript menu scroll with custom design pictures.
A: This is IE6 bug.

Q: Can you tell me what fields control the lines around the top level of menu items?
What fields control the lines around each sub-menu item?
I would like to test and see if the program will allow me to create a top menu that displays as follows:
Home | Proposal Reponses | Marketing Info |
As you can see I would like no borders around the top level and a tilda (vertical line) separator between each top level menu item.
For the sub-menu items I would like there to be a thin line box around the sub-menu but no lines in between each item within the sub-menu. What fields control these paramenters?
A: Home | Proposal Reponses | Marketing Info |
Yes, you can create such menu.
Please, use Individual styles.
Set these parameters:
var menuBorderWidth=1;
var menuStyles = [
["menuBorderWidth=0"], //style 0
];
["Home","testlink.html", , , , , , "0", , ], //style 0
["Product Info","", "default.files/icon1.gif", "default.files/icon1o.gif", , , , , , ],
To add lines between main items you can paste the separators.
Please, see the following parameters:
//------- Separators -------
var separatorWidth = "10";
var separatorHeight = "20";
var separatorAlignment = "center";
var separatorImage = "C";
var separatorVWidth = "150";
var separatorVHeight = "10%";
var separatorVImage = "image.jpg";
You can create separators using menuItems, for example:
var menuItems = [
["item 1"],
["-"], // this item is separator
["item 2"],
];
Q: Is there a way to change the height of the main buttons in Dhtml Menu. When I use the GUI tool there is nowhere to change the main button height. And when I tried to change it in the script file, it did me no good. I want all of the main buttons to be the same size.
A: You can use standard <img> object to set menu height, for example:
var menuItems = [
[" <img src='blank.gif' width=1 height=50>text"],
];
