Q: We are evaluating your product Deluxe Tree-menu.
We want that when user clicks an item, then load other page. This other page also conatains the tree menu. But, we are looking for how we have to do for the previously clicked menu items in java (in the previous page) remains highlighted for inform to user what is his current page/selection.
We know toggleMode feature, but after the second page loads, the clicked item does not remain higlighted.
It is possible to achieve this behavior with your product???
A: You should use API functions in that case
function dtreet_ext_expandItem (itemID, expand)
function dtreet_ext_setPressedItem (menuInd, itemID)
See more info about API functions:

Q: I used the drop menu creator to create a simple tab example, and I created a simple HTML file to display the tabs. It initially appears fine when the page first displays (e.g., the correct div is hidden), but when I *first* click on a tab I always get a javascript error deep in the .js code. Then I click around a bit between the tabs and get some display problems (no more javascript errors though), until finally the show/hide logic recovers and all looks ok.
The error I initially get is something like “tabs[…].id is not an object”. I have the IE7 debugger turned on, otherwise I might not ever see this error.
FYI, I tried your example menus on your web site and everything is fine! Maybe the .js files on your web site are not the same as those created by the generator?
A: You should set the following parameter in drop menu creator:
var bselectedSmItem=0;
Q: I am using your Deluxe Tabs software, and I am simply trying to implement your dhtml menu samples:
http://deluxe-tabs.com/file/templates/deluxe-tabs-style-3.html
I have downloaded the trial software and built my tabs, but at this point, all I have is the tabs... I need the entire box under the tabs, and I need to be able to insert my content for each tab.
Please explain to me how to use your dhtml menu samples.
A: You should specify any Object ID name of the DIV.
See, for each item you should assign the ID property of the contentDIV (see data file with your menu parameters).
["Style Name","contentName", "", "", "", "", "1", "", "", ],
["-","", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["Style Description","contentDescription", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["-","", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["Style Variations","contentVariations", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["-","", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["Empty","", "", "", "", "", "2", "", "", ],
And on your html page you should create DIV's with such ID. You canset background image for these DIV's in styles.
<div id="contentName" style="height: 0%; visibility: hidden; background-image: url('img/back.jpg'); background-repeat:repeat-y;" class="tabPage">
<br><br><br>
<p align=center><img src="img/style01_title.gif" width=140 height=90 alt="Glass Style Tabs"></p>
<br><br><br>
You should paste your content here!!!!!

Q: How to set the icon vertically top when the menu in dhtml text is wrapped?
A: Unfortunately it is not possible to align icon vertically now.
But you can do it using html code within menu in dhtml items, for example:
var menuItems = [
["<img src='deluxe-menu.files/orangeDot.jpg' style='border: 0 none;'> Home","testlink.html", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["<img src='deluxe-menu.files/orangeDot.jpg' style='border: 0 none;'> Product Info hgdgfjh aaaaaaaaa aaaaaaa aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaaa","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
