Q: I now have the need to introduce separators on the menu.
Can you tell me how to do that?
I cannot find any documentation telling me how this is done.
A: Please, see the following parameters:
//--- Separators
var separatorImage=""; //for subitems
var separatorWidth="5";
var separatorHeight="100%";
var separatorAlignment="right";
var separatorVImage="images/public/separator.gif"; //for the top items
var separatorVWidth="3";
var separatorVHeight="100%";
var separatorPadding="";
You should set a separator in the menuItems, for example:
var menuItems = [
["Home","index.cfm", , , , , , , , ],
["-"],
["About Us","about.cfm", , , , , , , , ],
];
Try that.

I am using thevista images and would like to have all of them but one use the same imageand the last one a different one. Can this be done?
If not I was able to adda second menu with the different image but for some reason the second menuwill not drop down. Can you help me with either of these?

["itemWidth=92px","itemHeight=21px","itemBackColor=transparent,transparent","fontStyle=normal 11pxTahoma","fontColor=#FFFFFF,#FFFFFF","itemBackImage=data-vista-01.files/btn_black.gif,data-vista-01.files/btn_black_blue.gif"],
["itemWidth=92px","itemHeight=21px","itemBackColor=transparent,transparent","itemBackImage=data-vista-2-03.files/btn_green.gif,data-vista-2-03.files/btn_green2.gif","fontStyle='normal11px Tahoma','normal 11px Tahoma'","fontColor=#FFFFFF,#FFFFFF"],];
var menuItems = [
["Home","testlink.html", "", "", "", "", "0", "0", "", "", "", ], //style 0
["Product Info","", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", "", "", ], //style 0
...

Q: I am generating a conference website which I though will be out as soon as possible but you javascript menu generator has become impossible to insert in my page, here attached in a sample page, it is basic html, so tell me where am going wrong.
Or otherwise insert it for me.
A: Now you have:
<style type="text/css">
<!-- Deluxe Menu -->
<noscript><a href="http://deluxe-menu.com">Javascript Menu by Deluxe-Menu.com</a></noscript>
<script type="text/javascript"> var dmWorkPath = "data.files/";</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="data.files/dmenu.js"></script>
<!-- (c) 2007, by Deluxe-Menu.com -->
</style>
It is not correct.
You should write:
<style type="text/css">
</style>
<!-- Deluxe Menu -->
<noscript><a href="http://deluxe-menu.com">Javascript Menu by Deluxe-Menu.com</a></noscript>
<script type="text/javascript"> var dmWorkPath = "data.files/";</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="data.files/dmenu.js"></script>
