Q: Do you by chance have the dhtml menu samples working with XML?
A: Unfortunately we don't have working example.
You may generate a menu from a database or XML using any server-side script, e.g., PHP, ASP, VB, etc.However, these scripts don't work inside of Javascript .js files, so,you should move parameters of a menu from a .js file into an html-page, e.g.:
<!-- Deluxe Menu -->
<noscript><a href="http://deluxe-menu.com">dhtml menu samples by Deluxe-Menu.com</a></noscript>
<script type="text/javascript"> var dmWorkPath = "menudir/";</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="menudir/dmenu.js"></script>
<!-- (c) 2008, http://deluxe-menu.com -->
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript1.2">
// and describe parameters of a menu
var parameter1=value1;
var parameter2=value2;
etc.
var menuItems = [
// here you generate items using server-side scripts (php, asp, vb, etc.)
];
</script>
The example of the menu working with PHP/MYSQL you can find here:

A: You should set the following parameter:
var noWrap = 0;
or use <br> tags within menuItems.
Q: I have set it to:
var tlevelDX=0;
It has helped somewhat but there still is a gap between the left side and the image icon. Is there any other parameter I can alter to push it more to the left?
A: You can try also to set the following parameters:
var texpandBtn=["","",""];
var texpandBtnW=0;
var texpandBtnH=0;
Q: We are interested in using your dropdown menu code for our site but we do have a question.
When the dropdown menu code viewed in IE7 everything is fine but when I view it in opera or firefox browsers the menu bar is off the screen. Have I missed something in the script to position this in the center whin the table it belongs in?
<table border="0" align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"
summary="Quaker Meadows Menu">
<tr>
<td>
<script type="text/javascript" src="data.js"></script>
</td>
</tr>
</table> is off the screen. Have I missed something in the script to position this in the center whin the table it belongs in?
<table border="0" align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"
A: Try to set exact width for the dropdown menu code in "px". It helps to position themenu correctly in all browsers.
var menuWidth="500px";
