Q: I have used for your software for Menu creation(Trial version). We integrated it in our appliaction running good on IE 6. It has some whitespaces also. Menu using dhtml is not displayed in IE 7 when integrated in our application. When we call your html directly in IE 7 then it displays.
In Mozilla ,menu is displayed but without transitional Effects.
I am interest buy your software. If we are assured that above issues will be fixed in licensed version.
A: > Menu using dhtml is not displayed in IE 7 when integrated in our application.Try to set exact width for the menu, for example: var menuWidth="300px";
> In Mozilla, menu using dhtml is displayed but without transitional Effects.Filters and transitional effects are features of Internet Explorer5.5+ only.

Q: Irene, thank you. I am working on seeing what you did and trying to get it to work on my computer. I keep getting ActiveX blocking errors when open page with the drop down menu source code on my computer. Is this something I can control from within the html code? Or is this something each user is going to have to change setting(s) in their IE Internet Options?
p.s., I had the code on the page twice cuz was just trying to get something... anything.... to work. I deleted the 2nd set which was further down on the page. I'm trying to get the menus to appear in the grey band just below the blue heading section but prior to the white text description section. And, once I get the menus to work, the navigation bar on left will be deleted. Thank you so much for your patience and help!
A: You can get the following message
"To help protect your security in IE ..."
on your local machine only. You won't have such message when you openyour website via Internet.
If you don't want to see this message you should do the followingthings:
Tools/Internet Options/Advanced Options/
and set
"Allow active content from files to run on My Computer".
Close Internet Explorer and open it once again.
There will be no such message any more.
Q: Using the example menu you have, how do i make the sub-menu for the 'Sample' menu item a multi-column and leave the 'Product Info' menu item as is.
I only want certain sub-menus to have multi-columns. I don't want all menu items to have a multi-column sub.
A: Please, see the attached example.
You should use individual styles.
var menuStyles = [
["smColumns=2"],
["smColumns=1"], //style 1
];
...
["More Samples","testlink.htm"],
["|Group 1","", , , , , "3", "1", , ], //assign style 1
Try that.
Q: In order to speed up things, (I mean my learning of this program) I am thinking of this:
I have at the moment only one selling e-book on my website.
Could you inform me please what I have to master in this drop down menu generator For managing, let say two affiliates, or more of course.
I know I will have to learn all. But I am sure that for starting and for just one e-book I don’t need to master everything.
I am a newbie, and all at once it is tiring as well as confusing.
And when my e-book is selling I will have time to study the whole thing.
Can you do this please?
A: Unfortunately we don't have step by step tutorial now. We'll try tocreate it in the nearest time.
