A: > - DHTML slide down menu does not stay within table cell
You're using the floating feature now. Your dhtml slide down menu will float withabsolute position only. So, now you have:
var tabsolute=1;
var tleft="1px";
var ttop="1px";
That is why your dhtml slide down menu does not stay within table cell and hasabsolute position.

Q: We are facing some problem, in our css drop menu. Please Advise -
When we used "Helvetica" font in deluxe menu, the css drop menu expand, if the above font not installed in user machine.
I would please request you to kindly assist me on the same as the client is getting impatient.
A: It is normal behaviour if there is no such font on the user machine.
You can try to write fonts in the following way:
"fontStyle='bold 12px HelveticaNeue Condensed, Trebuchet MS','bold 12px HelveticaNeue Condensed, Trebuchet MS'"
var itemStyles = [
["itemBackImage=top.files/,top.files/menuhoverbg.gif","fontStyle='bold 12px HelveticaNeue Condensed, Trebuchet MS','bold 12px HelveticaNeue Condensed, , Trebuchet MS'","fontColor=#FFFFFF,#FFFFFF"],
["itemBackColor=#504B48,#7E7666","fontStyle='bold 12px HelveticaNeue Condensed, Trebuchet MS','bold 12px HelveticaNeue Condensed, Trebuchet MS'","fontColor=#FFFFFF,#ffffff"],
];
Find another font similar to your font and write it through a comma.If there will be no HelveticaNeue Condensed font on the user machinethe font will be Trebuchet MS.
You should choose the second font among the following fonts:
Arial
Tahoma
Times New Roman
Trebuchet MS
Verdana
These fonts are installed on the most of windows computers.
Q: We use IFrames and Frameset through out our program. Will Deluxe-Menu and Deluxe-Tabs work for us.
Will this work for us, using the layout below. Menu will be in frame3 and tabs in frame4. Should pop up in frame5.
<frame> <frame1> <frame2>
<frame3-Deluxe-Menu> <frame4-Deluxe-Tabs>
<frame5 - Content and more IFrames and Framesets>
A: Deluxe Menu doesn't work with <IFrame> objects. It works with<frameset> objects only. All it can to do with <IFrame> is to loadpages into it.
You should use standard installation for the menu (cross-frame mode).
See more info here:

Deluxe Menu and Deluxe Tabs will work fine in such frame structure.
Q: I am facing problem with deluxe tab. When a first level jscript tab is selected, sub tab of that tab should be in selected mode.
I need to change text color of "New contact" (sub tab) in selected mode to black.
A: Unfortunately Deluxe Tabs doesn't have such a feature now.
You use main tabs to show sub-tabs and click on sub-tabs to show their content or openlinks.
On the initial page load you can set the selected item and submenu item using thefollowing parameters:
var bselectedItem=1;
var bselectedSmItem=2;
