Q: Do your popup menus work with Dreamweaver?
A: Deluxe Menu wasn't developed as Dreamweaver/Frontpage extension and wedon't have plug-ins for it.
To install the menu into your html page:
1. create and save .js file with your menu parameters in Deluxe Tuner
2. open your .html page in Dreamweaver
3. Copy data.js file and "data.files/" folder in the same folderwith your html page.
4. add several rows of code (<script> tags).
For info see:

<head>
<!-- Deluxe Menu -->
<noscript><a href="http://deluxe-menu.com">Javascript Menu by Deluxe-Menu.com&</a></noscript>
<script type="text/javascript"> var dmWorkPath="data.files/";</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="data.files/dmenu.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
...
<script type="text/javascript" src="data.js"></script>
...
</body>
That's all.
It is possible that Dreamweaver changes some paths,
so you'll havean error in the preview.
On your site or in your browser there'll be no errors.
Q: Are these cool html scripts compatible with .NET?
A: Yes, Deluxe Menu works in .NET.
Deluxe Menu is a Javascript product. It means that it works on aclient side and it doesn't work on a server side as ASP.NET script.
So, you can create the menu using standard html page and them movemenu code within .asp page.
Q: A few of my users have reported issues with the menu like the one below. Where the drop down menu is just a white box with a little scroll bar in it. Can you please let me know how I might correct it or what is wrong? We are using version 2.4.
A: I've just checked your website. It works fine.
You can have such effect when the page entirely was not loaded yet. So, images were not loaded yet.
If you don't want to have such effect you can try not to use back images for the submenus.
Q: I wonder if you can help me. I've uploaded all my files, including the menus to the client site.
All the menus were working fine, where each link was targeted to the frame "mainFrame" in the middle of the page. This morning, all the css javascript menu link targets don't work anymore. That is, the targeting info has not changed but the linked pages are opening up as a _parent page -- that is, replacing the entire page.
A: You should use absolute paths.
See the url browser tried to open:
http://domain.com/a_bp/bpdoc/3sell/32_sales_order_management/321_sales_order/
7operations/72_monitor_operations/index.html
instead of:
http://domain.com/7operations/72_monitor_operations/index.html
var pathPrefix_link = "http://domain.com/pages/";
These parameter allows to make links paths absolute.
For example:
var pathPrefix_link = "http://domain.com/pages/";
var menuItems = [
["text", "index.html", "icon1.gif", "icon2.gif"],
];
So, link path will be look so:
http://domain.com/pages/index.html
Please, try to use this parameter.
