Q: For some strange reason the border that outlines the java script tab area is missing.
A: You cannot set this border using Deluxe Tabs parameters.
You should set it in the DIVs style.
<div id="ExpenseInformation" style="visibility: visible; width: '800px'; border: 1 solid;" class="tabPage">
Or in the "tabPage" style.
Q: Shall I have to call the main egine file of the javascript menu maker - dmenu.js twice if I want to install two menus on the page.
The second script:
<script type="text/javascript" src="datatopnav.files/dmenu.js"></script>
Is for the top navigation menu, the datahscounseling is for the side menu. If I delete that line won't my top navigation be gone?
A: No, when you have several menus on the same page you should calldmenu.js file only once and then call several data files.
You should install the menus in the following way:
<head>

<noscript><a href=http://deluxe-menu.com/>Javascript Menu Maker by Deluxe-Menu.com</a></noscript>
<script type="text/javascript"> var dmWorkPath = "datahscounseling.files/";</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="datahscounseling.files/dmenu.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="datatopnav.files/dmenu.js"></script>

<td width="180" height="307" rowspan="2" valign="top" bgcolor="ffffff"><div align="left">
<script type="text/javascript" src="datahscounseling.js"></script></DIV>

Both menu will work correctly in that case.
See the example I've sent you. It works fine.

[' Introduction &<br>Search Terms',
'/TeachingLaw/Courses/LegalRsrchWriting/AmySloan/Room1/','','' ,'' ,'' ,'' ,''
,'/TeachingLaw/DeluxeMenu/AmySloan/Room1.js',],
Code as above is used to create a the following menu:
We are using <br> as the menu text is too long but the problem we are facing is the space between two line of web menu text.
Can you please let me know how we can reduce the space?
A: You can write your text in the following way:
["<div style='line-height: 10px'> Introduction &<br>Search Terms</div>",
"/TeachingLaw/Courses/LegalRsrchWriting/AmySloan/Room1/","","","","" ,"" ,""
,"/TeachingLaw/DeluxeMenu/AmySloan/Room1.js",],

I know that firefox requires the itemCursor to be set to pointer, but it doesn't work for all links in my menus. I believe that this worked in past version of deluxe-menu, but stopped working somewhere along the way. To recreate this, create a horizontal menu, and set the pressedItem to be one of the menu items and set the itemCursor to be "pointer". Then, you'll see that the pressed item's pointer is the finger icon, but the other menu items are just the arrow. Is there something I'm doing wrong or a setting that will fix this?
A: No, the reason is not in the pressed item.
See when you set:
var itemCursor="pointer";
your cursor will be a hand for the items with url only. For the itemswithout url it will be default arrow.
