Q: I purchased the most recent version of "Deluxe Menu & Tree & Tabs & Window Multiple Website License", and now can't open menus from previous versions. When I try to open a custom drop down menu that was created in an older version, I get the error:
Can't open the file: c:\webs\ltron\ltronmenudata.js Check youre encode parameter
This happens on all of the older menus that we're trying to update............Do I have to run some type of conversion program on older menu files?
Please let me know as quickly as possible.........we have over 100 custom drop down menus out there and now it seems that we can't edit them!
A: This message means that you should change the encoding:
"Tools/Use utf8 encode"
Change this setting and then open your data files.
Q: I am having problems with the XP Taskbar Menu. When I use DOCTYPE in the following format, the task bar does not show up atall for the exception of a single line.
When I hover my mouse on top of that line the menu displays fine with no problems. So the problem is with the Start button and the taskbar – they do not show. Can you please advice on how to fix this problem while keeping the DOCTYPE as specified.
A: Try to set the exact width for the menu:
var menuWidth="685px";
Q: How can I upgrade to Deluxe Menu v2.0? Now I'm using v1.14.
A: How to upgrade to v2.00 --------------------------------------------------------------- You can download the licensed engine .js files from the same link in your license message. Deluxe Menu v2.00 has new parameters and features. To upgrade to v2.00 you should do the following.
Step 1.     1.1 For Windows users       a. Run Deluxe Tuner v2.0       (can be found in the trial menu package v2.0       http://deluxe-menu.com/deluxe-menu.zip).       b. Open menu data file (.js file where menu parameters are placed): select File/Open…       c. Save the file: select File/Save, then click "No" button when the dialog box appears.
    1.2 For other OS users       a. Open menu data file (.js file where menu parameters are placed) in a text editor.       b. Make sure that the following variables exist in the data file:
      var keystrokes = 0;       var dm_focus = 1;       var dm_actKey = 113;
      var dynamic = 0;       var smHideOnClick = 1;       var itemAlignTop = 'left';       var smSmartScroll = 1;
      var dmAJAX = 0;       var dmAJAXCount = 30;       var dmRTL = 0;       var dmObjectsCheck = 0;       var menuBackRepeat = "repeat";       var menuHeight = "";       var transDuration2 = 200;
If one of the variables doesn't exist - add it at the beginning of the file.
      c. Save the file.
Step 2. Now open HTML-page that contains Deluxe Menu.
Step 3. Replace existent tags of the menu by the following code:

Q: I had to put the site live and had taken out the white border. I've used one of the better elements of your application and put a second data file (data1.js) and a sample page up that recreates the aberrant behavior in IE and the missing border-bottom in Firefox and Opera.
In IE, the entire border of each element has about a 5px white border until you mouseover each element. Then the border-bottom (1px solid white) shows correctly.
In both Firefox and Opera the border doesn't show at all.
A:Try to write so:
var absolutePos=1; var posX="10"; var posY="400";
var itemStyles = [ ["itemBorderWidth=0 0 1px 0","itemBorderStyle=solid,solid","itemBorderColor=#FFFFFF,#FFFFFF"], ];
