Q: What I mean is I still want the destination page to be static inthe var menuitems but when the javascript side menu item is clicked, it'll run a js on the onclick or mouseup event.
Is this possible?
something like:
var menuItems = [
["text", "home", "javascript:onclick=your_code_here"]
];
A: You can achieve this by using standard html objects within javascript side menu items, for example:
var menuitems = [
["<div onContextMenu='your_code_here'>item text</div>", ""]
];
Actually you can use any html code within menuItems.
Q: I am trying to create a tab menu and I have some questions. I want a tab menu that has four tabs. Each tab is a different image, the normal and hover state uses the same image and the selected state uses a different image. This will be applied to all four tabs. All the tabs will not have any text on them because the image will already have text on it. This tab menu will not have a submenu but will use <div id> tags to populate information when a certain javascript menu master tab is selected.
I am having difficulty trying to create this type of tab menu to work with the Deluxe Tuner. Each time I try to make an image as a tab that image is applied to all javascript menu master tabs which I do not want. I want each tab to have a different image.
Please advice how I can do this.
A: If you want to use different images you should use Individual ItemStyles and assign them for your tabs.
var bstyles = [
["bitemBackImage=deluxe-tabs.files/style04_n_back.gif,deluxe-tabs.files/style04_s_back.gif, deluxe-tabs.files/style04_s_back.gif","bbeforeItemImage=deluxe-tabs.files/style04_n_left.gif, deluxe-tabs.files/style04_s_left.gif,deluxe-tabs.files/style04_s_left.gif", "bafterItemImage=deluxe-tabs.files/style04_n_right.gif, deluxe-tabs.files/style04_s_right.gif,deluxe-tabs.files/style04_s_right.gif"],

Q: I want javascript navigation menu to lock into place when someone visits a page. Is there a way to do this?
A: Try to set the pressed item using the following API function:
function dm_ext_setPressedItem (menuInd, submenuInd, itemInd, recursion, parentOpen)
Sets a current pressed item.
menuInd - index of a dynamic menu on a page, >= 0.
submenuInd - index of a submenu, >= 0.
itemInd - index of an item, >=0.
recursion = true/false - highlight parent items.
parentOpen = true/false - open all submenus to show the selected item
See example here:
http://deluxe-menu.com/highlighted-items-sample.html
Try to click 'Highlight "Product Info/Installation/Description ofFiles" item'.
You can also try to use the following parameter:
var smHidePause = 1000;
A delay (in ms) between mouse is moved from submenu and its closing.
You can make submenus to stay visible till you click outside the menu or scroll your page.
To enable this feature you should set this parameter in the following way: var smHidePause = -1;
Q: How do I align sub-menus on the left for the javascript menu sample?

var subMenuVAlign="top";
