Is it possible for the javascript tree menu to highlight selected item on the page?

Q:

I evaluated Deluxe Menu over the weekend and I really like it. I
believe I’ll be buying it this week. I have one question. Is it
possible for the menu to be aware of what page you have selected and
highlight the corresponding javascript tree menu item on that page.

A:

You should set a pressed item using Javascript API:

function dm_ext_setPressedItem (menuInd, submenuInd, itemInd, recursion)

Sets a current pressed item.
menuInd - index of a javascript tree 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.
