Q: I have not been able to get the dhtml context menu - or any other Javascript - to appear. I use FrontPage2000. Any ideas?
A: See how you should install Deluxe Menu on your pages.
Deluxe Menus weren't developed as Dreamweaver/Frontpage extension,BUT you can use it as standard Javascript files. To install the dhtml context menuinto your html page:
1. open the page in your program
2. open html source code of the page
3. add several rows of code (<script> tags), For info see:
http://deluxe-tree.com/installation-info.html
That's all.
It is possible that Dreamweaver changes some paths, so you havean error in the preview.
On your site or in your browser there'll be no errors.
Create your menu in Deluxe Tuner application.
You can create any dhtml context menu as you like in Deluxe Tuner.
2. You should install the menu on your page.
You can click, for example, File/Export to HTML (you can't do it inthe MAC version).

Q: We have been using you menus for a couple of months now. If I use the pathPrefix_link variable does it prefix dhtml menu's links that already have http or https (such as external sites) and will it interfere with the javascript onclicks for that we have setup?
A: No, path prefix won't be added to links with 'http://...' and 'javascript:...' in the beginning ofthe link field.
Q: I can't seem to get the floating function to work for a image tab menu.
A: Notice, your tree menu won't float with relative position. You shouldset:
var tabsolute=1;Q: Mouseover "QUICK LINKS" at the top. The bottom java menu navigation item is falling behind the mainnav table.
It works fine in FireFox. Any suggestions?
A: Try to add a high z-index for the DIV with top menu, for example:
<DIV id=containerHeaderNav style="POSITION: absolute; z-index:50;">
