Q: Is there a different type of menu, other than the way I have it set up, such as the tree type, that might load faster or take up less space when the page loads?
A: You should set
var dmAJAX=1;
create .js files with your submenus and call this files from your mainfile, for example:
var menuItems = [
["Home","testlink.htm"],
["Product Info","", , , , , , , "data-samples/data-ajax2.js", ],
["Samples","", , , , , , , "data-samples/data-ajax3.js", ],
["Purchase","testlink.htm"],
["Contact Us","testlink.htm"],
];
/*** data-ajax2.js ****/
var menuItems = [
["Features","testlink.htm"],
["Installation",""],
["Parameters Info","testlink.htm"],
["Dynamic Functions","testlink.htm"],
["Supported Browsers",""],
];
Add dmenu_ajax.js file in the same folder with your dmenu.js file.
Try that.
Q: I am using javascript dropdown menu - Deluxe Menu 2.0 and have some problem with the doctype declaration.
Is there any need to classify a certain doctype in order to get the menu working correctly?
If we use the XML declaration (like this: "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">)
the padding and margin settings of the submenus get lost.
Are there any known solution to fix this?
A: Yes, it happens if you don't specify units in "px" for some dropdown menu parameters.
Please, try to write so:
var itemPadding="2px";
Q: Will the java menu api changing the node image on the fly in real time?

Q: Hi, just a quick question, is it possible to change which tab is displayed when the page is first rendered.
For instance, if you have 4 tabs, going right to left, can you load the css menu tabs with the second tab being displayed first?
A: See, if you use Tab Mode
var tabMode = 1;
var bselectedItem = 0; //main items
var bselectedSmItem = -1; //submenus
If you use
var tabMode = 0;
var bselectedItem = 0;
See, the ID of the item starts with 0.
So, if you use TabMode ( var tabMode=1;):
var bselectedItem = 4;
["-", ] - separator, ID = 0
["Mac Tab 1", "content1"], ID = 1
["Subitem1","testlink.html",] ID = 2
["Subitem2","testlink.html",] ID = 3
["Mac Tab 2", "content2"], ID = 4 // selected tab
["Subitem1","testlink.html",] ID = 5
["Subitem2","testlink.html",] ID = 6
["Mac Tab 3", "content3"], ID = 7
["Subitem1","testlink.html",] ID = 8
["Subitem2","testlink.html",] ID = 9
["Mac Tab 4", "content4"], ID = 10
["Subitem1","testlink.html",] ID = 11
["Subitem2","testlink.html",] ID = 12
If you use tabs ( var tabMode=0;):
var bselectedItem = 2;
["-", ] - separator, ID = 0
["Mac Tab 1", "content1"], ID = 1
["Mac Tab 2", "content2"], ID = 2 // selected tab
["Mac Tab 3", "content3"], ID = 3
["Mac Tab 4", "content4"], ID = 4
