Q: Is there any way to keep a menu lit up when going to another page? Or do the menus always have to default back to their normal state?
I want the menu to know what page the user is on and keep that section highlighted. Any ideas?
A: You should set a pressed item using Javascript API:
function dm_ext_setPressedItem (menuInd, submenuInd, itemInd, recursion)
Sets a current pressed item.
menuInd - index of a menu on a page, >= 0.
submenuInd - index of a submenu, >= 0.
itemInd - index of an item, >=0.
recursion = true/false - highlight parent items.
But notice, to use dm_ext_setPressedItem() you should know ID of selected item and subitem.
You can't get this ID after you reload your page. That is why you should write your own code on PHP.
Q: Hi there. I am evaluating your tabs before I purchase and I ran into a small problem. If I can get this resolved I am ready to purchase.
I need to be able to execute some javascript when I click on a tab. What I am planning on doing is I want to dynamically set the location.href property of an iFrame located inside of a content div.
I can't figure out how to do it. Any help will go a long way for me to decide to purchase. Thanks!
A: You can use your own javascript functions in the menu items.
You should paste "javascript:some_function()" into item's link field, for example:
["tab text","javascript: window.open('test.html', 'frameName')", ...],
or
["tab text","javascript: getURLForFrame()", ...],
Try that.

Q: Is there a convenient template somewhere that allows me to have a standard windows tree control menu that stays open so that the user does not lose track of himself.
A: Thanks for your interest in our products.
You can expand any items when you load your page.
You should add "+" symbol before the item text. For example:
["+DHTML Menus","", "images/xpicon1.gif", , , "DHTML Menus", , "0", , , , ],
["|DHTML Menu","http://dhtml-menu.com", "images/icon1.gif", "images/icon1o.gif", "images/icon1o.gif", "Information", "_self", , , , , ],
["|+DHTML Tree Menu","", "images/icon1.gif", "images/icon1o.gif", "images/icon1o.gif", "Support", "_self", "2", , , , ],
["||2 styles: standard & XP","", , , , , , "3", , , , ],
