Q: Do you have an extremely simple example of modifying a dynamic drop down menus with the JavaScript API? I've played with the example on the site, but I have trouble removing the other menus without breaking it.
I just want to use the API to change the icon on the menu items.
A: You should use the following function:
function dm_ext_changeItem (menuInd, submenuInd, itemInd, iParams)
<script language="javascript" >
dm_ext_changeItem(0, 0, 1, ["", "", "new_icon.gif", "new_icon_o.gif", "",,""]);
</script>

Q: I am interested in purchasing the developer license for Deluxe menu, but I wanted to see if I can use the trial version to accomplish what I need. You have an example of what I need on
http://deluxepopupwindow.com/ ("click here to open window"). I would like to click on a navigation menu link and have a pop up window linking to a url.
I got as far as being able to link the website in the pop up, but not exactly sure how you make a link that you can click to display the pop up.
A: Delete 'openAfter=' at all from deluxePopupWindow.attachToEventfunction:
deluxePopupWindow.attachToEvent(win,',,,,,')
In that case popup window won't show till you click on the link.
Q: How does an item on the simple html menu connect to pages?
