- Relative/Absolute menu position - Special JavaScript API for changing javascript menu "on-the-fly" - Top items and submenus have a shadow - Keyboard navigation - press Ctrl+F2 to enter the top menu - Submenus dropdown on mouseover - UL/LI items structure - Hundreds of pre-designed templates - Items with icons
Use a mouse to move a menu as a usual window. Also you can create the menu where each submenu can be "separated" from the menu (MS Office toolbar-like mode).
When the page is scrolled the menu remains visible. The menu can "float" along one or two coordinate axes.
There can be multilevel menus - create as many rows of the menu as necessary. Any submenu in its turn can include different number of columns.
Q: Is it possible to have menu items act like regular hyperlinks? For instance in Firefox I like to "middle click" hyperlinks to open them in a new tab, or in IE right click and open in new window. However with Deluxe-Menu this does not seem to work.
A:If you want to open your links in the new window you should set the item target parameter to "_blank", for example:

Q: Greetings. How do I make a menu item as default selected and open when the page loads with the dhtml menu bar script? Thanks.
A: 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">dhtml menu bar script 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 dhtml menu bar script 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.
