Q: I hope you have a instructions so we can install css menu in our website.
A: Unfortunately we don't have step by step tutorial yet.
We'll try to create it in the nearest time.
1. Create your Css menu in Deluxe Tuner.
When you open Deluxe Tuner you can click "File/New" and add items
and subitems using buttons "Add Item" and "Add Subitem" on the main window.
See the parameters for the menu on the main window.
More info about menu parameters you can find on our site
http://deluxe-menu.com/css-menu/parameters-info.html
2. You should install the menu on your page.
You can click, for example, File->Save Css Menu/Export HTML
So, you'll have folder with images and .css file ("deluxe-css-menu.files/" folder by default),
deluxe-css-menu.html file and deluxe-css-menu.js file with all menu parameters
(project file you need, if you want to modify your menu later,
there is no need to upload deluxe-css-menu.js on your server).
Open deluxe-css-menu.html file in any text editor and copy several rows of
code into your page (for example index.html page of your website).
Copy and paste several rows into your html page (index.html).

You should also copy "deluxe-menu.files/" folder with all images and .css file
into the same folder with your index.html page.

Try that.Q: We would like to use standard images for the main menue and add popup menues by using deluxe menue. The popups are triggered by hovering the cursor above the main menueimages and they should stay visible as long as the cursor is in the image.
If the cursor leaves the image, the popup should be closed unless it is in the popup menue.
A: See, you can use one Deluxe Menu (image-based) with images for the mainitems and submenus or you can use several pop up menus for each image.

You should use onMouseover event.
Q: We’re a licensed user of deluxe menu and tree menu.
Can you please tell me how to specify left padding for a dhtml tree menu item? I don’t see any item padding options for tree menu in any of the documentation.
A: You should use the following parameter:
var tlevelDX=10;
Q: I would like to separate each main js dropdown menu item (Find an Expert, Contact...etc) with a dotted line graphic. If you look at the js dropdown menu, you will see that each graphic is separated by a dotted line. I am trying to replicate that look in the Deluxe Menu. Is there a way I can do that? I tried to use the "separatorImage" value in the DeluxeTuner, but it didn't seem to do anything. Is there a way to put a dotted border just along the bottom of them item, instead of around the whole item (like a box)? Or is there a way to insert the graphic between the items?
A: To add a separator you should
//--- Separators
var separatorImage=""; //for subitems (top items in vertical menu)
var separatorWidth="100%";
var separatorHeight="3px";
var separatorAlignment="right";
var separatorVImage="separator.gif"; //for the top items (subitems items in vertical menu)
var separatorVWidth="100%";
var separatorVHeight="2px";
var separatorPadding="";
You can create separators using menuItems, for example:
var menuItems = [
["item 1"],
["-"], // this item is separator
["item 2"],
];
