Q: The AJAX sample for tree menu script on website does not have any styling applied at the moment.
I am assuming that it would support full styling with AJAX as well.
Is this correct?
A: You can use any style and templates for the AJAX sample.
Create a menu and set style you need using Individual Item Styles.
To enable AJAX Tree Menu use the following menu parameters:
var tajax=1;
Then set your menu in such way:
var tmenuItems = [
["Deluxe Tree: XP Style","", "", "", "", "XP Title Tip", "", "0", "", "data-samples/data-ajax5.js", ],
["+Samples Gallery","", "", "", "", "XP Title Tip", "", "0", "0", "", ],
["|Samples Block 1","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "data-samples/data-ajax.js", ],
["|Samples Block 2","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "data-samples/data-ajax.js", ],
["|Samples Block 3","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "data-samples/data-ajax.js", ],
];
Each .js file must contain menuItems variable for the submenu in the following format:
var tmenuItems = [
[text, link, icon1, icon2, icon2, tip, target, itemStyle, submenuStyle, jsFileName],
];
Where jsFileName - .js filename on the server that contains tmenuItems variable for the submenu.
For example:
var tmenuItems = [
["Home","testlink.htm", "", "", "", "Home Page Tip", "", "", "", "", ],
["Product Info","", "", "", "", "Product Info Tip", "", "", "", "data-samples/data-ajax2.js", ],
["Samples","", "", "", "", "Samples Tip", "", "", "", "data-samples/data-ajax4.js", ],
["Purchase","testlink.htm", "", "", "", "Purchase Tip", "", "", "", "", ],
["Support","", "", "", "", "Support Tip", "", "", "", "", ],
["|Write Us","mailto:[email protected]", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
];
Q: I want to be able to put a small thumbnail icon in the description area of animated drop down menu. Here is a current line from my .js file for a single link.

I want it to do this though:
["|'Slow Death Hook' Contest<br><br><br>Enter Your Favorite Fish Photos to Win!<br>Gary Parsons ","http://www.domain.com/site/featured_article.cfm?owner=AB18D298-0AC7-254E-B7248E9DCD0F9549 <br><br><img src="images/thumbnail.jpg">",,,,,"0"],
The problem is the "'s around the img src.....it's throwing off your animated drop down menu.
How do I fix that?
A: It is not correct to write menuItems in such way.
You should write:
["|'Slow Death Hook' Contest<br><br><br>Enter Your Favorite Fish Photos to Win!<br> Gary Parsons <br><br><img src='images/thumbnail.jpg'>","http://www.domain.com/site/featured_article.cfm?owner=AB18D298-0AC7-254E-B7248E9DCD0F9549",,,,,"0"],
Try that.
