Q: I have started using your menu and when testing in both IE-browsers the CPU jumps to 100% for at least 30 to 60sec.
Then the sub menu appears but also not as fast as in Firefox(no effects).
Now does my menu contains about 1476 item-lines, and I use the cross-frame modus.
Any ideas?
A: It is possible that the loading speed can be lower if the menu is very large. But it doesn't take so much time.
Yes, you can notice some delay in IE, but in over browsers it works better.
Deluxe Menu works fast, but 1500 is a large value.
I tried to create large menus on my machine: P4 3GHz, 512RAM WinXP SP2

Q: How can I have the sub tab option that initiated the action highlighted once the new page is reloaded? I want to highlight the tab which is done with 'bselectedItem', please tell me about the sub-tab option.
A: See you cannot create subitems in
var tabMode=0;
it is not correct.
You should set
var tabMode=1;
The following parameters set the pressed items for top items andsubitems:
var bselectedItem=0; //top items
var bselectedSmItem=2; //subitems
where 0,1,2... is the index of the item in bmenuItems.
- delete var bselectedItem=1; and var bselectedSmItem=2; parameters from your data file
- set correct parameters on each page before you call data file, forexample:
<noscript><a href="http://deluxe-tabs.com">Javascript Menu by Deluxe-Tabs.com</a></noscript>
<script type="text/javascript" src="menudir/dtabs.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript"> var bselectedItem=3;
var bselectedSmItem=5; </script>
...
<script type="text/javascript" src="menudir/data.js"></script>
