Q: I tried the new engine files and the submenus now show up in the bottom frame.
If the new page in the bottom frame is a frameset itself, the menus will not show up. Is there a work around for this?
A: Unfortunately, Deluxe Menu can work within 1 frameset only. It can't work within nested framesets.
Q: Is there a way to make the vertical drop down menu dhtml not reset after a link is clicked. Now every time I click a link in the tree menu it takes me to the linked page but all the menus re-expand.
A: When user clicks the link, the browser loads a new page and the script re-create the vertical drop down menu dhtml.
If you want to open the needed section automatically on load you can use the following:
1. Save the state to cookies
var tsaveState=0;
2. Use frames
3. Put the special script on each page of site that will open appropriate section.

var dm_writeAll=0;

Q: I’m setting an after item image as follows (this code was generated by Deluxe Tuner, not by hand/text editor):
var afterItemImage=["designimgs/btn-ico.gif","designimgs/btn-ico-active.gif"];
var afterItemImageW=8;
var afterItemImageH=7;
As you can see, the after item image is not appearing in my access drop down menu – do you have any idea why that would be/how to fix?
A: You should create Individual style and assign it for the top access drop down menu items:
var itemStyles = [
["itemBackImage=designimgs/blank.gif,designimgs/blank.gif", "beforeItemImage=designimgs/blank.gif,designimgs/blank.gif", "afterItemImage=designimgs/btn-ico.gif,designimgs/btn-ico-active.gif", "beforeItemImageW=1","afterItemImageW=8", "beforeItemImageH=1","afterItemImageH=7","itemBorderWidth=0"],
