Q: How do I make the submenus sticky i.e. they will not close even when the mouse goes to somewhere else on the page?


A: I've checked your menu in all browsers. I can't see such problem.

You can try to adjust these parameters:

  var transDuration=200; // Delay of a transitional effect (in ms) on submenu's showing.

  var transDuration2=100; // Delay of a transitional effect (in ms) on submenu's hiding.

Q: Is there a way to make the dhtml pull down menu not reset after a link is clicked.
Now every time I click a link in the tree menu it takes me to the linked page
but all the menus re-expand.

A: When user clicks the link, the browser loads a new page and the script re-create the menu.
If you want to open the needed section automatically on load you can use the following:

1. Save the state to cookies

  var tsaveState=0;

2. Use frames

3. Put the special script on each page of site that will open appropriate section:
