Q: Once I have an answer form your reseller as to why the VAT doesn't correspond with my country's rate, I think that there is a very strong possibility that I will be investing in this impressive menu-builder. I do have a couple of questions which don't seem to be answered anywhere:
1: is it possible to configure the menu so that the person browsing the site previously-visited javascript menu links can be identified by say using a different font colour for visited 'pages'?
2: the section of the web page in which the menu is located is called by a SSI for each new page that the browser visits - will the menu rest each time the Included file is called, or will it persist from page to page?

You can find more info here:

Deluxe Menu has only two states normal and mouseover.
Try to do the following things:
- delete var pressedItem=1; parameter from your data file
- set correct parameter on each page before you call data file, forexample:
<noscript><a href="http://deluxe-menu.com">Javascript Menu by Deluxe-Menu.com</a></noscript>
<script type="text/javascript"> var dmWorkPath = "menudir/";</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="menudir/dmenu.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript"> var pressedItem=3;</script>
...
<script type="text/javascript" src="menudir/data.js"></script>
You can also set a pressed item using Javascript API:
function dm_ext_setPressedItem (menuInd, submenuInd, itemInd, recursion)
Sets a current pressed item.
menuInd - index of a menu on a page, >= 0.
submenuInd - index of a submenu, >= 0.
itemInd - index of an item, >=0.
recursion = true/false - highlight parent items.
But notice, to use dm_ext_setPressedItem() you should know ID of selected item and subitem.
You can't get this ID after you reload your page. That is why you should write your own code on PHP.
See the attached example. Open deluxe-menu1.html. The first item ishighlighted. Then click to open deluxe-menu2.html file. The second item ishighlighted.

Deluxe Menu is the Javascript product. It means that it works on aclient side only and it doesn't depend on the server which you'reusing and it doesn't work on a server side as SSI script.
So when your browser reloads a page with the menu your menu reloads too.
Q: When I create a tab which has no sub-items, there is a white line drawn under the whole top javascript tabbed menu bar.
How do I avoid this?
A: Each menu item should have subitems (in the TabMode).
If you don't want to have subitems for some items you can add onesubitem and delete Item Text.
["Item 2","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["|","", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
Q: I'm testing out your cascading html menu but I cannot seem to see the live version of it on line. I can view it on my computer but I cannot send a link to my coworkers so they can view it also. Am I putting the code in the right location? Please point me into the right direction.
A: It is not correctly to call data file inside H2 tag
<h2> <script type="text/javascript" src="test1.js"></script></h2>
You should write
<script type="text/javascript" src="test1.js"></script>
or
<div>
<script type="text/javascript" src="test1.js"></script>
</div>
Check that you uploaded dtree.js and test1.js files on your server.Q: Im working on a menu with your program, and am unable to make the javascript sticky menu save the hover states after you move off the navigation item and onto its child nav items.
For example
Example Nav item 1
-Example Sub Nav item 1
-Example Sub Nav item 2
-Example Sub Nav item 3
When I hover on the Example Nav Item 1, the hover state works, but when I move my mouse down (Im using a horizontal javascript sticky menu) to select Example Sub Nav item 1, I want the hover state to stay selected on the "parent" Nav Item. Is this possible? What is the variable you have to change to accomplish this?
A: Yes, it's possible, please use
var saveNavigationPath = 1; The javascript sticky menu keeps items highlighted during menu navigation.
0 - disabled, 1 - enabled (default).
